Cream 500ml

*Independent, non-compensated, verified buyer.* Purchased for my son's eczema, I have been more than happy with the results we have seen and have begun purchasing bottles for myself and my daughters. It does take a bit to absorb, but no more than any other heavy cream, and it does not leave a "slime" coat. • For those of you with little ones going through the same early years eczema: I found that applying 3-4 times per day dramatically cut down on outbreaks and reduced the need for cortisone. Use liberally, but not so much as to leave a tacky layer when dry. • For everyday adult use, I am happy with the results applying morning and evening (after towel drying from shower) because I don't have a slimy, tacky feeling or a shimmery glitter appearance from the other stuff I've used. I was trying to find an adjective to describe how it feels, but the best I can come up with while maintaining accuracy is the cliche of silk. It seriously seems to tighten your skin a bit and feels like those silk shirts that were so popular in the 90's (now I'm aging myself)! Do NOT put this on so thick that you have a tacky feeling. I think some people are just slathering it on like the normal, watery lotions you buy at Walmart. Which would account for some of the negative reviews. A bottle will last both me and my son, doing all the aforementioned applications because I'm a lotion addict, a good month and a half. Not bad for the price!

I have skin allergies. I am allergic to a range of things like dispenser soap to flannel. When I come in contact a light flare up with mean my skin turns bright red. A major flare up and my skin looks like it has small whip marks. I got this on a recommendation and it has changed my life. For me it seems to work like a barrier and protect my skin. Gave some to my cousin who has the same allergies. Also, I have very dry hands that usually crack and bleed. This year they have been fine. I wear daily, all over, right out of the shower.

Helps with itchy skin

Product is genuine but not satisfactory

This product is awesome. My LO has been suffering from an extremely dry rash on his face and shoulders since he was 2 weeks old. At 6 weeks I began to consider maybe it was more than a heat rash. He skin was so dry and scaly. After only 4 days (1 application a day) he's skin has cleared up almost completely. His face is soft & bump free thanks to this product.

I read about this product from the internet and thought i would try. My husband has eczema on his hands and i have it occasionally, i had my husband try it on his hands and they were softer immediately. Love this product and will in the future purchase other products from this line.

As a child (30+ years ago), my mom would use this cream on my skin and I continued to have dry skin as an adult so I’m very happy that I found this on Amazon. It keeps my skin hydrated without feeling greasy. No more dry, flaky skin. Love it and will continue to order it.

I use this for the eczema/dry skin on my hands. I really do like the product and it makes my hands feel soft but it smells bad and even my boyfriend commented on how it stinks. Possibly I got one that’s expired..

I have exema on face did not do anything to make it better or worse. there no miracale cream out there

I have gutatte psoriasis all over my body, and a few patches of plaque psoriasis. Ointments containing steroids are difficult to use when you have several hundred small spots and you want to treat each one but avoid applying to the good skin. I have tried a variety of moisurising creams that can just be slathered all over the body. I use Oilatum Oil in a bath and find that it helps to soften my psoriasis and reduce the irritation, so I decided to try this cream also. It takes a little longer (extra 1 minute or so) to be absorbed by my skin than some other moisturiser/emollients, but perhaps that is simply a function of how thick/viscous it is, and not necessarily a bad thing. Once it has been absorbed, I can feel that there seems to be a slight and very light layer or coating on top of the skin - not feeling oily or greasy, but well moisturised. I notice an immediate reduction in itching/irritation. As this is a non-steroid, you can apply as much as you want, as often as you want and use on any part of the body. Some people are allergic or experience irritation from lanolin - this is lanolin free, not all moisturisers are. However, different people can experience allergic reactions from different things, so it is always advisable to use this on a small patch of skin at first use and look for any reaction over the first few hours. The container does have a note that it contains cetostearyl alcohol and potassiium sorbate, and it says that these CAN cause local skin reactions. The cream comes in a sturdy plastic bottle, with a pump dispenser. Two things I really like about the bottle: - the pump moves positively from the locked to the unlocked position, without needing to depress the piston first and squirting out some of the contents (as is common with many pump dispensers), - there is also a clip-on plastic collar which fits around the pump-piston, further preventing accidental discharge of contents. These two features make it very convenient to carry this in a hand-bag, computer bag or with gymn gear and not have it leak all over the other items.

Item received but cap is broken. Disappointed. Don't know why no box for this cream and just use bubble wrap???? Very very disappointed .

Good
