Body Armor for your skin

Prolonged exposure to excess moisture can damage your skin, eventually leading to rashes, skin infections and even ulcerations. AmeriGel® Barrier Lotion with Oakin™ was formulated for nursing home use to protect patients from skin breakdown due to incontinence, diaper rash, peristomal site drainage, skin folds and areas where the skin may be vulnerable to friction/shear damage or excess moisture.

Known as Body Armor for your skin, the unique combination of dimethicone, silicone and Oakin™ found exclusively in Amerigel® Barrier Lotion, offers advanced skin protection utilizing the latest in skin care treatment. New to the skin care market, the silicone in AmeriGel® Barrier Lotion stays on the surface of the skin and does not penetrate through the protective layers, providing the best protection on the market today. Similar to a freshly waxed car, the silicone shields the skin and prevents contact with excess moisture, foreign airborne particles and other skin irritants. Dimethicone, on the other hand, moisturizes and lubricates the skin without the greasy residue often found in petroleum-based products. This lubricant minimizes skin tears in friction prone areas and reduces inflammation caused by irritants such as cleansers, disinfectants and latex particles. AmeriGel® Barrier Lotion has won over nurses, caregivers and patients with its’ effortless application and removal, while eliminating the use of petroleum-based ingredients. Combined with Oakin, ™ AmeriGel® Barrier Lotion reduces inflammation, combats and prevents infections, making it a one-of-a-kind Barrier Lotion.
