3M Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream 92g – Skin Protection

3M Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream is a concentrated, pH-balanced skin barrier cream formulated with 3M’s advanced polymer technology. Trusted by healthcare professionals for continence and ostomy care, this durable, non-petroleum formula protects and moisturises skin without compromising the absorbency of incontinence pads or the adhesion of medical tape.

Key Benefits

• Long-lasting protection — creates a durable barrier against urine, faeces, and other bodily fluids
• Moisturises while protecting — keeps skin soft and hydrated even with frequent use
• Non-petroleum based — won’t reduce the absorbency of incontinence pads or interfere with adhesive tape
• Concentrated formula — a little goes a long way, minimising the amount needed per application
• pH-balanced and hypoallergenic — gentle enough for sensitive or fragile skin
• Quick-drying — forms a protective film without leaving a greasy residue

How to Use

Apply a thin, pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin, spreading evenly over the area to be protected. Allow to dry before applying pads, dressings, or clothing. Reapply as needed, typically every 2–3 days or after bathing.
