Hi everyone im the mother of a 5 year old girl who has suffered with excema since 5 months. I have come across a fantastic product that i have been using on her for a month now. I am just so thrilled with the results!! It is called HEMP BODY BUTTER and its sold in the BODY SHOP. It is a very thick body butter that comes in a tub. I apply it straight after her bath as her moisturiser and then put on her steroid cream only where it is particularly bad eg behind knees etc. I also use it in the middle of the night for when she wakes up itchy. Im not sure if its because its so thick but it just sooths her so much. There are a lot of spots where i am only using this cream as the excema has not been coming back as bad. It really makes her skin smooth and takes a way that raspy feeling their skin has. This cream according to the body shop lady works as the hemp is naturally medicated. Has no fragrances etc either very safe for sensitive skin. Any way it is quite expensive at $29.95 but it really does work!! :yes:

Thats great it works for you
Unfortunately it won't be that way for all
The hemp body butter has lanolin which is no good for many sufferers. Also has many artificial additives for those who try to avoid these things.

It doesn't work for me or DS either, my hands came up in huge red welts as soon as I rubbed it in! And DS's hand was the same where I tested a wee patch.

Thanks for sharing though!!! Sorry I probably sounded like I rained all over your parade :o but YAY you found something to use!!! It's like Christmas when that happens! :yelclap::D:laughing:
