hi there!

my little boy has really dry skin and i know its not very glamourous but we use oilatum cream on him and its fantastic. you can get it in boots and tescos or if you go to your doctor you can get it on prescription. Or my sister uses star flower ointment on her face, i think she got it from a health shop.

Hope this helps

Firstly if it is definately eczema then I wouldn't apply anything until having a GP look at it.You may find products aggrevate matters so be very careful.Hydrocortisone is usually prescribed and once it's cleared up it's good to keep on top of the eczema by keeping the skin moisturised with a product specifically designed for eczema.

I get it on my neck,eyes and under my eyes and find winter is always worse and times of a stress.Please get professional help first though as mentioned.HTH:hug:

I have eczema and suffer with it on my face, especially on my upper lip and eyes, I do have a hydrocortisone cream which I use when its really bad but daily I use a Jojoba oil (skintruth I think) which I find is kinder and really does keep it under control.
