About us
Meeting the evolving needs of compromised skin
With more than 60 years of prescription skincare expertise, the Doublebase range continues to evolve to meet the needs of compromised and sensitive skin. Proudly manufactured in the UK, our emollients and soap-free cleansers are supported by strong clinical evidence and are never tested on animals, reflecting our commitment to responsible, patient-focused skincare.
Doublebase has been built on decades of trusted formulation knowledge and continues to advance with clinically proven Dry Skin and Flare Relief products - including a once-daily emollient that provides up to 24-hour hydration. This ongoing innovation ensures we deliver skincare that is effective, dependable and accessible for those who need it most.
