You must avoid ALL soaps and detergents as they take out moisturiser and make eczema worse.

There are no cures for eczema, only managements. Here are a list of dos and don’ts:

Things not to do:-

Don’t use biological powders

Don’t use fabric softeners

Don’t use soap or detergents to wash with

Don’t use standard shower gels or bath additives

Things to do :-

Try Fairy Snow -the old fashioned powder

Use dryer balls

Use a soap free cleanser to wash hands etc.

Use a moisturising shower gel like Oilatum

Use a moisture bath additive like Aveeno

Use a good moisturiser like Aveeno

Use it very frequently, you can’t over-moisturise!

Use antihistamines for itch, a non sedative one like loratidine in the morning and a sedative one such piriton at night.

You may need to use steroids creams/ointments for flare up areas. Use the mildest you can, for the shortest time possible.

Sorry if you knew all of that already :-(
