My 11 y/o always complaints of being so itchy but won’t put anything on bc she’s already flared up and everything burns even non fragrance creams and lotions ! It seems like we have tried everything in the stores and all the prescriptions and nothing helps her!!

I have been using Aloe Vera gel for the last six months and nothing else. You would never know I have eczema, my hands aren't even red, or my feet. I put it on twice a day like I did the eczema cream. I want to spread the word because I couldn't be happier.

So I have a four-year-old who had the same issue every single thing burns it doesn’t matter what the dermatologist or allergist recommend it all burns her the only thing that has helped although it doesn’t stay moist for too long, but it actually helps is jojoba oil it does not burn whatsoever, and it actually has some thing in it that mimics human skin oil, so I have found that to be the only thing that works for her

The burn is one of the worst parts. I find myself procrastinating showering simply bc I know it’s going to be such a pain. I’ve find that castor oil is my best friend through it all. After I shower, wash my face or anything like that I put on a later of vanicream lotion (this specific lotion burns the least in my opinion) and once I’ve let it soak in I put on a thin layer of castor oil and it really soothes any burning sensation I’m having. It also keeps my skin moisturized for longer and has some healing properties!
