🔷 Transparent Barrier for Skin Monitoring

Unlike an opaque barrier product, Critic-Aid® Clear provides protection while allowing the underlying skin to remain visible.

This makes it easier to monitor skin condition during routine assessments without removing the ointment simply to see the skin underneath.

🔷 71.5% Petrolatum Moisture Barrier

The formula contains 71.5% petrolatum, creating a protective barrier that helps shield the skin from moisture and external irritants.

Its formulation is designed to adhere to both intact and compromised skin, supporting moisture management where additional skin protection is needed.

🔷 Dimethicone & Zinc Oxide

Critic-Aid® Clear also contains dimethicone and zinc oxide to complement its petrolatum-based barrier.

These ingredients help:

• Condition the skin
• Protect vulnerable skin
• Seal out unwanted moisture
• Support an effective skin barrier

🔷 Preservative-Free & CHG Compatible

Critic-Aid® Clear is formulated without preservatives and is compatible with CHG (chlorhexidine gluconate).

This makes it suitable for use within skin care routines where CHG compatibility is required.

🔷 Important Information

Use Critic-Aid® Clear according to the current product instructions or the directions of a healthcare professional.

The transparent formulation allows skin monitoring, but regular skin assessment remains important, particularly when the product is being used on compromised or moisture-exposed skin.
