Living with eczema-prone skin is such a hassle. You have to be careful with the skincare products that you will be using because your skin gets irritated easily. It is because eczema makes the skin’s protective barrier weak, and it can make skin dry and scaly. So, make sure to follow these helpful tips when looking for one of the best anti-itch creams for eczema:

  1. Avoid Creams with Formaldehyde Releasers

Formaldehyde releasers are also known as cosmetic preservatives. They are irritants that can cause allergic triggers. If you are not sure what ingredients are formaldehyde releasers, then here are some of them:

  • Brunopol

  • Sodium hydroxymethylglycinate

  • Imidazolidinyl urea

  • DMDM hydantoin

  1. Choose Low Water Content Creams

You may want to check the ingredients of an anti-inflammatory cream for eczema to see if it has low water content. These products most likely do not have any preservatives that might further irritate your skin. 

  1. No to Fragrances

Skincare products with fragrances contain chemicals that dry your skin. Always go for unscented, mild creams. Even people with normal skin conditions are warned about beauty products with scents because it might lead to negative skin reactions if they are continuously used. 

  1. Go for Natural Ingredients

It’s still better to choose natural eczema balms that contain essential oils or other natural ingredients like egg yolk. Oils like tea tree oil are found to be effective in soothing severe eczema. Meanwhile, egg yolk contains Vitamin A that helps prevent dry, rough skin. 

  1. Consult a Dermatologist

If you are still sceptical about the effectiveness of an eczema cream, then you can seek some help from a dermatologist. They can help determine if the natural eczema balms you just purchased is suitable for your skin type.
