Eczema cream

I tried QV which was good but not good enuf to minimise the intense rash on DS's face. I resorted to using hydrocortisone on his face at flare ups but it only minimised it slightly. For the past week I've been using this FANTASTIC natural cream I bought from my chemist - Hopes Relief Cream.... here is a blurb from a website about the product. It took effect within the first day but has taken a week to really improve and go from red/weepy cheeks to completely clear!!! Worth a go.....

Blurb:
There’s herbal extracts of organic Calendula, Licorice root and Gotu kola.
And there’s also anti-bacterial Manuka honey, soothing Aloe vera, plus homeopathic ingredients Sulphur, Rhus Tox and Graphites.
Combined with the inclusion of homeopathics and the high potency of the active ingredients Hope’s Relief Cream is a truly unique product.

Hope’s Relief Cream is a suitable and effective treatment for eczema and psoriasis and other skin conditions and provides a natural alternative to the more intrusive cortisone creams so often prescribed.

Hope’s Relief Cream is gentle enough to be used on pregnant women, babies, children and adults for extended periods without harmful side affects.

Hope’s Relief cream is made using only quality ingredients, certified organic where possible.
It is free from petrochemicals, colourings, perfumes or any other irritants.

I too found the cortisones a waste of time, not to mention the long term worry about them

I've finally had heaps of success with a natural product called 'Environ Professional AVST gel'

The state manager of QLD is the mum of a child in my DS' class. She noticed how bad my DS' excema was and gave me a sample to try. After trying EVERYTHING this is the one thing that has worked and I bought some. It's $80 for 100mL but it's worked for our DS. His has disappeared entirely smile
