Review on 🌿 Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion: Soothing Oat & Rich Emollients for Dry Skin, Fragrance-Free - 18 fl. Oz by Dan Pal

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great non-greasy product for eczema and dry skin

I don't usually feel compelled to write reviews but thought I would give my opinion on this product. I've had mild eczema/winter dryness for as long as I can remember. My hands often get very bad because of my job (chemist), ie when working in the laboratory I have to wear nitrile gloves most of the day and wash my hands frequently. This is the only product that works for me. I only apply it once a day after a shower during the colder months and that's it. During the warmer months my skin usually becomes almost problem free due to sun and sea exposure, warmer temperatures, higher humidity, etc. However, this is a product that helps me get through the winter. I've tried CeraVe (both lotion and cream) and Cetaphil Eczema Soothing Body Moisturizer but they just don't work for me. My skin doesn't like greasy applications. What I love most about Aveeno is that it is absolutely non-greasy. It absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky feeling on the skin. I use this product primarily as a reaction rather than prevention of eczema or just general dryness; this. I only use it when I feel I need it. My rash usually clears up in a week or two after starting once a day. I should also mention that I went through a hellish process known as Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW) / Red Skin Syndrome due to past topical corticosteroid overuse. While going through TSW I was unable to put any moisturizers on my skin at all, but now I can use this Aveeno again with no problems. Having gone through this absolutely debilitating condition, I am very skeptical of topical steroids for eczema, but that's another story. Your mileage may vary but I would definitely recommend this product for dry skin or mild eczema.
