my husband is a dermatologist and created cloudvitamincream. The next cream to come out is a niacinimide cream and I used it on my 13 year old daughter who has eczema. It worked really well. Didn’t irritate, and next morning saw amazing results. Maybe just google niacinimide (B3).
Thanks Anita for the tip 🙂 Shall look into it, have a good day,

It is a shame that moisturising can become a battle for a parent with a child. The use of emollient is such an important aspect of coping with atopic eczema it should be seen as a positive thing to do, not a hassle! A little at a time, often enough, gently and quickly and followed by something fun. Only a shine is required. See http://www.atopicskindisease.com/articles/Often
Thanks DrB, yes, I still remember the tip you shared to do it quickly and gently 🙂 Thanks!

This reminds me of my son. I always have to remind him to put his eczema cream on his skin. He rather ignore it than to treat it. Silly boy but that is a teenager for you.
Yup Christy! I know! My daughter makes a fuss every time I moisturize her, we even have a funny ‘it’s so sticky’ dance to get her laughing through the morning moisturizing.
Have a good week Christy!
