I use Eurecin Healing Cream (Walmart & drug stores). Is a little on expensive side. I am very allergic to many types of creams/lotions. I was in the Dollar General looking at their lotions and found the DG brand that is "comparable" to Eurecin for one-third of the cost. Thought I would give it a try and it is Exactly like Eurecin. HOWEVER, like most good things you find, my local DG isn't carrying it anymore. When I'm sewing, I use Sew Soft by Vita-Erb made especially for sewers.
