Usage/Instructions
For maximum benefit you should apply the gel on a regular basis and as often as required.
- Before using the 500 g and 1 kg bottles, turn the top of the pump dispenser in the direction of the 'open' arrow to unlock it. After unlocking, you will need to press down the pump dispenser several times to prime the pump before any product is dispensed.
- Apply Doublebase Gel to the affected areas of the skin on a regular basis and as often as required.
- Use a few gentle strokes to smooth the gel across the skin in the same direction as hair growth (like stroking a cat or dog). If necessary, allow time for any excess to soak in. Do not rub the skin vigorously.
- This product can also be used before and after washing, showering or having a bath to help condition your skin and stop it from drying further.
- If you are applying another treatment to the same areas of skin as Doublebase Gel, try to avoid mixing the two products. This can be achieved by applying the treatments alternately, leaving sufficient time to allow the previous application to soak in.
