I have extremely dry skin and suffer from patches of eczema on my fingers and I have found that foderma serum definitely helps soothe when used regularly. I also have issues with my hands cutting and splitting. I don't find this serum helps much with that aspect, but I would recommend overall.MagdaGarciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843886588990011498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-82421848322700466192014-11-16T14:04:05.398-05:002014-11-16T14:04:05.398-05:00Try Aveeno and Neutrogena's eczema hand creams...Try Aveeno and Neutrogena's eczema hand creams--miraculous stuff!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06555258589003944916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-47494556712852224302014-11-13T01:20:11.979-05:002014-11-13T01:20:11.979-05:00Neosalus has that very nice skin feeling, Aquaphor...Neosalus has that very nice skin feeling, Aquaphor is not as pretty: it is basically a bit glorified Vaseline but does the job. Sometimes when it gets really dry & itchy, I even layer CeraVe then Aquaphor to seal on top. Same thing w/ shea butter: it's basically the layer that seals all the good deeds beneath it -- so probably won't work by itself. Ah... the things we do to keep eczema at bay..Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18179420902933819052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-28363411825566902342014-11-12T13:17:01.443-05:002014-11-12T13:17:01.443-05:00Hi Mandi, thanks for sharing that!

I haven't tried that lotion, but hydrocortisone (which is the active ingredient in Cortizone 10) is a topical steroid as well, I guess it's just milder and in lower concentration than the prescription-only ones - and since I'm already using a steroid cream I try to avoid that in my moisturizer. But it's good to know there are options in the drugstore as well!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222921812909264644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-3329508325332374972014-11-12T12:48:53.141-05:002014-11-12T12:48:53.141-05:00I feel your pain.

So I went to get a topical steroid from my dermatologist and that helps when I have flareups but I still needed something that was a great daily moisturizer. When my dad was going through chemo & radiation for his cancer his bald head/skin was extremely dry, the hospice nurse recommended an over the counter lotion. I tried it on my self and it was amazing! Its called Cortizone 10 Intensive Healing Lotion, for Eczema and Itchy, Dry Skin. It doesnt leave a sticky residue which I hate. It soaks in and feels great! I highly recommend you try it!MandiMomof3https://www.blogger.com/profile/16068236442671693960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-81719881142251416872014-11-11T18:49:04.509-05:002014-11-11T18:49:04.509-05:00What an awesome comment, Claire!

Haha, twinsies, I just had a patch last week on the side of my pinky as well :) Totally forgot about the humidifier, it does help - we were using ours all winter last year. I've never tried Aquaphor for my eczema before, I'll definitely check it out once I run out of the Neosalus, which unfortunately may be quite soon. I tried pure shea butter a couple years back but it didn't do anything for me :( But my flare-ups were really bad back then. Thanks for all the tips my dear!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222921812909264644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-28244567946874359322014-11-11T18:28:34.420-05:002014-11-11T18:28:34.420-05:00*high fives* I just noticed my first season of ecz...*high fives* I just noticed my first season of eczema patch showed up, on my hands usually on the outer side of my pinky finger, that itching red, blistery feeling *shudder.* Yes, totally agree, upon first sight of spot like that I reached for my steroid top off with some Aquaphor. I think I did try the Neosalus but decided Aquaphor is cheaper (plus I probably need it for a week or so before weaning myself off to something like CeraVe). Yes, thanks for reminding me about Neutrogena, that was a good handcream that I've totally forgotten!<br /><br />I'm knocking on woods that my son does not get eczema -- so far so good, DH does not have it but my whole family has it (my dad has it the worse, poor guy). Another thing that is a trigger for me is too much dairy product (the bane of my existence as I thrive in cheese, yoghurt and such) -- I just have to back it down a little then proceed slowly. Humidifier helps, we usually run them when the heater gets too drying in the house. Hmm.. what else? Oh, using scented handcream also a trigger, but then again I just have to back it down a bit then start sparingly (I like my handcream scented sometimes, too!) -- when it gets really bad sometimes I just used the pure shea butter to coat my hand a bit, not as tacky as Aquaphor but does the job well.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18179420902933819052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-42605570970895145862014-11-10T23:37:09.698-05:002014-11-10T23:37:09.698-05:00I heard so many good things about L'Occitane S...I heard so many good things about L'Occitane Shea Butter Dry Skin Hand Cream on Eczema.
