World Atopic Eczema Day

World Atopic Eczema Day

World Atopic Eczema Day is an important awareness day dedicated to recognizing the impact of atopic eczema and advocating for improved care and support for individuals who suffer from this skin condition. Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a chronic skin condition characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin. It can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, and raising awareness is crucial to better understanding and managing the condition.

Beyond Organic Skincare's award-winning multi-purpose E-Natural Emollient Cream provides an effective treatment for eczema for all ages. As a certified COSMOS natural, vegan, and skin friendly product it comprises Chamomile Oil to calm and soothe irritation and Vitamins A, D, E, Calcium, Zinc, Potassium, Iron and Phosphorous minerals for soft, deeply moisturized, and healthy skin. This cream is suitable for post-operative care and regularly used by radiotherapy patients at the London Clinic. Free from Paraffin and other mineral oils. 

As a summary, here are some general tips for managing eczema:

• Moisturize regularly: Apply a good-quality, fragrance-free moisturizer like the E-Natural Emollient Cream to keep the skin hydrated. Moisturizing helps maintain the skin's natural barrier and avoid any irritations.
• Avoid triggers: Identify and avoid triggers that worsen your eczema. Common triggers can include certain foods, allergens, stress, and environmental factors.
• Gentle cleansing: Use mild, fragrance-free, chemical-free and soap-free cleansers when washing your body and face. Avoid hot water, as it can further dry out the skin.
• Harsh chemicals, fragrances, and dyes in skincare products can irritate sensitive skin and exacerbate eczema symptoms. Opting for gentle, hypoallergenic products help soothe the skin and reduce flare-ups.
• Wear soft fabrics: Choose breathable, natural fabrics like cotton to minimize skin irritation.
• Prescription medications: In severe cases, a dermatologist may prescribe topical corticosteroids, immunomodulators, or other medications to manage eczema symptoms.
• Allergy testing: Consider allergy testing if your eczema appears to be triggered by specific allergens. Identifying and avoiding these allergens can be beneficial.

Remember that eczema is a chronic condition, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. It may take time to find the right combination of products and strategies to manage your eczema effectively.
