I use natural, handmade soap for hand washing and bathing. I wear gloves when washing my hair or doing any cleaning. The lotion that I use is Aveeno eczema therapy itch relief balm. The key is finding the ingredients that trigger your break outs and avoiding direct contact with those.

❤️Thank you so much! I’m willing to try anything I have Aveeno lotion for eczema. I’ve been watching what I eat as well. I try to eat as clean as possible. I will be on the lookout for natural products!!!!

I’m sorry you’re going through this. My doctor gave me a cream. It burns 🥵. She didn’t listen to me when I said creams have not been working. Everything burns because my skin is cracked in places.

I use Dr. Bronner’s soap in the shower. It’s fragrance-free, as fragrance was a big trigger for my eczema before I actually became allergic to it. I love using Eucerin lotions, mainly their original healing cream.
