    Expert advice for White Soft Paraffin

    • Dry skin can worsen the itch; therefore, do not scratch as doing so will generally make it worse. If scratching is irresistible, rubbing the itchy area with an ice cube might help.
    • Drink at least 8-10 large glasses of water per day to maintain an adequate level of hydration and improve overall skin health.
    • Avoid soaps, bubble baths, etc. when you bathe. They can dry out the skin and make it more prone to irritation. Instead, use a soap substitute or a bath/shower moisturizer.
    • Prefer wearing cotton clothes over irritating fabrics, such as wool or nylon.
    • Do not worry if you occasionally forget to use the White Soft Paraffin. Continue using it as before.
