Colloidal Oatmeal
An ideal natural relief that calms and softens the skin.

Colloidal Oatmeal is produced from finely ground oat grains of Avena Sativa, the common oat.

Colloidal Oatmeal’s water-binding sugars, fats and hydrocolloids hold moisture against the skin allowing it to act as an emollient. Colloidal Oatmeal binds to the skin and provides a silky, soothing, relaxing experience.

Phenol

Vitamin E
The term Vitamin E covers eight related fat-soluble compounds found in nature – tocopherols and tocotrienols.

Vitamin E is one of the most important ingredients for healthy skin. The body releases some Vitamin E into the skin through natural oils. While, you can increase your intake by consuming more vegetable oils, nuts and green vegetables, topical application can also supply the skin with vitamin E.

Relief & Comfort Ingredients

Camphor
An old-time remedy that continues to produce soothing relief.

Menthol
Cool and refreshing, invigorating and soothing

Menthol fires up cold-sensing nerves in the skin responsible for that well-known cooling sensation known as ‘the tingle’. Obtained from peppermint oil, Menthol refreshes, revitalizes, and enlivens skin.

Phenol

Salicylic Acid
Helps to reduce the buildup of dry, dull skin

In very small, yet effective amounts Salicylic Acid helps to gently remove dead, cracked, peeling skin, without damaging the new layer of skin that is constantly renewing itself. This skin cell turnover results in healthy, soft, smooth skin underneath.

Moisture & Protection Ingredients

Cetyl Esters
Imparts a lubricous feel and soft gloss

Cetyl Esters acts as a lubricant on the skin surface, giving it a soft and smooth appearance. Cetyl Esters Wax is a skin conditioning agent which helps to lock in the skin’s natural moisture levels, and impart a smooth, soft, feel to both the product and the skin.

Lanolin
Excellent emollient – it helps soften and soothe skin

Lanolin falls into the lipid-rich emollient class of moisturizers. Lanolin forms an oily layer on the top of the skin that traps water in the skin. One of the causes of dry skin is a lack of lipids, which allows water to escape. Lanolin absorbs moisture from the air around it, rejuvenating skin.

White Petrolatum
Very highly refined

With a melting point, close to body temperature, petrolatum softens upon application creating an effective barrier that traps the skin’s natural moisture. Petrolatum protects injured or exposed skin from harmful or annoying external sources while also providing relief to the skin, sealing off the skin from water and air allowing the skin to heal itself.

Sunscreens*
Octyl Methoxycinnamate
Benzophenone-3

Safe and effective sunscreen filters which protect against the sun’s damaging rays.

Helps protect against sunburn when applied liberally before sun exposure.

*Carmex products containing these ingredients should be used as directed on the label.
