I am an eczema sufferer, and generally it only starts to show when I scratch it in my sleep, which makes it worse, which makes it itch more - it's a vicious cycle Anyway, the E45 itch relief...

This stuff is great for dry patches, but don't use it all over your face because it will clog your pores and break you out. Not to mention making you VERY greasy! A multi-purpose staple no home...

I bought the 'Junior' version - but its all pretty much the same. It clears up flaky skin really quickly with out irritation & doesnt smell. It is a little greasy - but it does the job well.
