I have had eczema for a long time and I haven't really found one that's suitable for me. I tried Cetaphil Restoraderm based on online reviews, but it costs a lot and stings like HELL. At first I thought it was normal, but I later learned that I should find a moisturizer or emollient that doesn't sting.

I also tried Rosken and it didn't sting, but it doesn't feel very moisturizing.. At least it didn't sting though.

Any ideas and recommendations? Would help me a lot since my skin is dry and itchy all the time, especially with haze now! ;_;

Thanks guys, I'll look into the suggestions. Physiogel is too expensive for me (I have eczema over large area) but I'll keep it in mind.

Maybe I'll try natural product for once.

You can also try "Nourish Naturals Eczema and Psoriasis Cream". I find it very potent for my 2 year old. Cetaphil Restoraderm for both bath and moisturizer.
Salcura Zeoderm also was helpful.
But 1 medication may work for one person but not necessary another. So, what I mentioned are only based on my experience. You can try them out if you like.
Having eczema can be very torturing. Steroids help, but it tends to worsen the condition and you get bad withdrawal symptoms. It's like an analogy of opium for the skin....

Thanks. My experience with Restoraderm moisturizer was pretty bad, it really stings for me. Also I wish my dermatologist told me about the withdrawal symptoms and proper usage for steroid cream, I found out myself the hard way. sad.gif

Just an update: I'm using Moogoo now and it definitely doesn't sting. My eczema is somewhat under control now as long as I moisturize often after shower and don't eat seafood. Haha
