Octenisan Wash Lotion 500ml x 2

Lovely I wouldn't use anything else

This product gave me hope.Following medical treatment I developed very bad eczema and thought that it was incurable because all treatments prescribed by doctors was failing. My mental stableness was seriously affected.I remembered being given this product to shower and wash prior to surgery so I researched and found it here on Amazon. My very first use have resulted in my body feeling more cool, comfortable and slightly moisturised. I continued using this body wash, combined with the use of an emolument treatment that I’ve also researched.The result is brilliant and two and half years of hiding and avoiding families and friends it feels like am coming home from the wilderness. I’ve recently started working again just before Christmas.I’m not medically trained but I’d encourage anyone suffering with skin problems to try this body wash.

delivered on time at a good price. Have used this product for 4 years since coming out of hospital and find it kind on the skin and hair. This is used in hospitals

Octenisan Wash Lotion has become an essential part of my daily hygiene routine, especially as someone who frequents public saunas and steam rooms on a near-daily basis. Recommended to me by a Finnish friend who’s grown up with steam culture, and later endorsed by my GP for its skin-safe, antimicrobial properties, this product fits squarely into a lifestyle centred around sweat, regeneration, and skin care. Over the last few months, I’ve used it religiously—morning and night after my sauna sessions, and I now wouldn’t want to be without it.First and foremost, the formula is gentle yet effective. It contains octenidine dihydrochloride, a powerful antiseptic used widely in medical environments, and allantoin, known for its skin-soothing and regenerating properties. The wash is fragrance-free, pH-balanced, and devoid of dyes, making it safe for all skin types—including sensitive and allergy-prone skin like mine. After hundreds of uses, I’ve never experienced redness, dryness, or irritation—something I can’t say for most soaps or typical body washes. In a hot, humid sauna environment where the skin is already vulnerable and pores are open, Octenisan provides a clinical-level clean without stripping away the natural barrier.I’ve experimented with a number of similar wash products over the years, from natural glycerine soaps to boutique eucalyptus oils. Nothing compares to this in terms of how it handles post-sauna skin. It doesn’t foam excessively, but it lathers just enough to glide easily over damp skin. I apply it with a clean washcloth after my final sauna cycle and rinse off thoroughly—it leaves me feeling fresh but not “chemically scrubbed.” Unlike many antimicrobial washes that feel industrial, Octenisan strikes a balance between hospital-grade cleansing and everyday usability.The product’s safety profile is excellent. Its ingredients are minimal and purposeful. There's no SLS or unnecessary preservatives—only what’s needed to kill bacteria gently while preserving skin health. Octenidine, in particular, is a trusted agent in surgical prep and wound care—its inclusion here gives the lotion serious credibility. The additional use of lactic acid contributes to mild exfoliation, helping maintain a clear, soft skin surface despite frequent exposure to sweat and steam.Packaging is utilitarian but effective. The bottle is robust and hygienic, with a tight cap and good hand-feel even when wet. I keep one in my gym bag and another by my shower at home. Two bottles at 500ml each last me a solid three to four months with daily use. Because it's undiluted, a little goes a long way—just a palmful is more than enough for full-body use, including armpits and feet, where bacterial build-up is most common. I've even used it to cleanse the scalp occasionally after sauna, with no issues.Over time, I’ve also noticed reduced skin breakouts, fewer occurrences of fungal flare-ups around the toes (a common sauna problem), and a more consistent skin tone overall. If you’re someone with sensitive skin, or if you’re simply hygiene-conscious in humid communal environments, this wash is a fantastic investment. It isn’t flashy, but it delivers exactly what you want: clean, protected, soothed skin—no more, no less.It’s now one of those products I trust blindly. If you’re on the fence, I’d say: treat your skin like your lungs—what you expose it to daily makes a long-term difference. Octenisan is one of the few things I’ve found that’s both safe enough to use every single day and strong enough to make a meaningful difference in skin health.

Great product & value
