Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Keeping the skin well moisturised is one of the most effective ways to manage dryness and reduce discomfort associated with itchy or sensitive skin. Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream combines emollient ingredients with 1% menthol, which produces a cooling sensation that many people find soothing when skin feels hot, irritated or itchy.
For best results, apply the cream generously several times throughout the day, especially after bathing or showering when moisture can be locked into the skin. Regular use may help improve skin comfort and support the skin's natural protective barrier. If your skin becomes cracked, weeping, infected or your symptoms persist despite regular moisturising, seek advice from your pharmacist or GP. Avoid applying to broken skin unless directed by a healthcare professional.

FAQs
1. What is Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream used for?
Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream is a daily moisturiser designed to help relieve dry, itchy, irritated and overheated skin. The emollient base hydrates and softens the skin while 1% menthol provides an immediate cooling sensation that many people find soothing. It is suitable for regular use to help maintain healthy, comfortable skin as part of a consistent skincare routine.
2. Is Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream suitable for eczema-prone skin?
Many people with eczema-prone skin use emollients like Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream to keep the skin hydrated and reduce dryness. The cooling menthol may help soothe itching, although some individuals with very sensitive skin may prefer a non-menthol emollient. If eczema is severe, infected or worsening, seek advice from your pharmacist or GP.
3. Can I use Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream every day?
Yes. It is intended for everyday use and can be applied several times daily whenever your skin feels dry or uncomfortable. Regular moisturising helps support the skin barrier and may reduce the recurrence of dryness and irritation over time.
4. Does the menthol sting or burn the skin?
The 1% menthol provides a cooling sensation rather than heat. Most people find this pleasant and soothing, particularly on itchy or overheated skin. However, if you have very sensitive or broken skin, the cooling effect may feel stronger. Stop using the cream if significant irritation occurs.
5. Can children use Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream?
Yes. It is generally suitable for children, but parents should supervise use and avoid contact with the eyes. If you are using the product on infants or very young children, it is advisable to seek guidance from a healthcare professional first.
6. Can I apply this cream to my face?
It can be used on facial skin if tolerated, but care should be taken to avoid the eyes, eyelids, lips and nostrils. Because menthol creates a cooling sensation, some people may find it too intense for facial application. Patch testing on a small area first is recommended.
7. Is Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream greasy?
No. The formula is designed to moisturise effectively while remaining comfortable for everyday use. It absorbs well into the skin, leaving it feeling soft, hydrated and refreshed without an excessively greasy residue.
8. Can I use Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream alongside eczema treatments?
Yes. Moisturisers are often used alongside prescribed eczema treatments to help maintain skin hydration. If using medicated creams or ointments, allow sufficient time between applications unless your healthcare professional advises otherwise.
9. Does Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream contain steroids?
No. This is a moisturising skincare product and does not contain corticosteroids. It works by hydrating the skin and providing a cooling menthol sensation rather than treating inflammation with steroid medication.
10. When should I apply Ovelle Menthol Aqueous Cream?
Apply whenever your skin feels dry, itchy or uncomfortable. Many people find it particularly beneficial after bathing or showering, as this helps lock moisture into the skin. Reapply throughout the day as needed.
11. Can I use this cream during hot weather?
Yes. The menthol provides a refreshing cooling sensation that many people appreciate during warm weather or whenever skin feels overheated. It also helps moisturise skin that may become dry due to sun, heat or air conditioning.
