About Skin Therapy and Personal Care
This subcategory of Skin & Personal Care covers everyday skin care and hygiene products used at home and in care settings. You will find moisturizing lotions and creams, dry-skin ointments, lip balm, body wash, shampoo, deodorant, oral care items, and similar personal care products from Dynarex and Systagenix.
Form is how most shoppers narrow the list. Lotions spread easily and absorb quickly, creams are thicker, and ointments are the heaviest, staying on the skin longer. Personal care items come as liquids, bars, foams, sprays and single-use cloths; no-rinse foams and cloths are designed for bathing a person who cannot easily use a shower.
Size refers to the tube, bottle or jar volume, or the number of cloths in a pack. Small bottles and packets suit travel bags and care facility carts, and pump bottles or larger jars suit daily home use. Fragrance-free versions are listed separately from scented ones.
If you already have a product you like, the REF or item number on the label identifies the exact size and formulation. Matching it is simpler than searching by product name, since manufacturers often reuse similar names across a whole line. For skin concerns beyond routine care, check with your prescriber.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose between a lotion, cream and ointment?
Lotions are the lightest and absorb quickly, which suits large areas and daily use. Creams are thicker and stay on the skin longer. Ointments are the heaviest and are often chosen for very dry areas. Also check whether the product is scented or fragrance-free, and pick a container size that suits how often you use it.
Are personal care products covered by insurance?
Most personal care and skin care products are paid for directly. Where a HCPCS code applies to an item, it is shown on the product page for reference. Any coverage depends on your payer and plan. ArmadaMeds is a retailer, does not bill insurance, and cannot promise reimbursement.
Can I buy personal care products by the case?
Many items are listed as individual units and as cases, with the count shown on each product page. Facilities often buy cases to keep a consistent product on hand. To reorder the same item, search the REF number on your current bottle or box and confirm the size and scent.
