Do Epaderm products contain SPF?

Epaderm products do not contain SPF.

According to the National Eczema Society, it is recommended you apply emollients about half an hour before applying sunscreen. This gap will help ensure the sunscreen remains undiluted and keeps its protective properties.

If you are using an emollient that is greasy or oily, such as Epaderm Ointment, be careful not to overdo the application as this can cause a 'frying' effect in the sun.
