I get dry skin. And eczema. And I'm cheap. So after trying horrible cheap moisturisers and all sorts of stuff, I came across this recommendation from an old girlfriend to try this aqueous cream stuff. Now I use it all the time to wash my face, and it's been excellent. Plus it's only a few bucks for a good size tub, and it doesn't smell like those horrible sorbelene type things or leave you greasy like pawpaw cream. Anyone tried it? What'd you think?
Is this the stuff? View attachment 5649 Never heard of it, nor seen it. Are you in the UK? I ask cause my quick google of the product brought up images from UK websites.
Yeah that's similar. I'm in Australia, guess you guys don't have it there. THe ingredients just basically say parrafin wax I think. It really cleared up my eczema, I think because it acts as an emollient. I threw away the tube or steroid cream the doctor had me using.
I too suffer from mild eczema. I've found pure olive oil soap (Oliva) to be fantastic as it's very moisturising and contains only three ingredients - saponified olive oil, water and mineral salts. The patches I had are rapidly clearing up.
Welcome to The Shave Den! A good (olive oil) soap really works wonders, yeah. @encino: Could you post the complete ingredients list?
