I grew up with eczema and seborrhea in our family. I had the eczema. My DH also grew up with it-he was given the icky bad tar treatments, and I was given a special shampoo and my parents were told to stay away from any soaps with perfumes. I was also given a prescription for Eucerin that relieved me of all symptoms after a couple of weeks. I could not use the Dove the dr. told me to try, as as gentle as it is, it was too harsh for my skin. Couldn't afford to keep up the prescriptions when I was on my own. Couple years later when I met my DH, I was introduced to his aunt who worked in a dermatologist's office and was visiting from another state. Without ever saying anything to me about my red patchy cheeks or arms, she sent me samples of Eucerin from her office. I was surprised it was the same product. It worked like a miracle again! By then we could afford to buy the expensive lotions and cremes, so I bought a container of the creme and would use that on the small dry red patches I would have. To this day-34 years later, I still use the Eucerin creme everyday as the perfect makeup remover, and it has helped eliminate any skin conditions all my kids inherited. It is the only thing I put on my skin, and I no longer have any issues with eczema. The Eucerin saved me from the red patchy itchy face I used to have in HS. My GD had the eczema and it has relieved her of the dry red patches also. Google it. It is dermotologist recommended and may work for those who have not tried it. I use the Eucerin every day on my hands. The stuff is amazing. I wash dishes and get really dry hands immediately. Put the Eucerin on and baby soft hands again. The product does come in cleansers, lotions, and cremes. I will add the Dove worked for my sister. I will pass this recipe on to her-thanks for sharing. (Eucerin is not a prescription and there are generic products very similar.)
