I have it on my arms but my face is what I am more concerned with. I have spent alot on face creams and cannot find one that does not cause my face to flare up.

You can also use Dr Wheatgrass Recovery Cream or Spray. It's cream/spray derived from organically grown wheatgrass. The product works wonders. The cream is an excellent skin smoother/toner/softener also . My wife use it every night before bedtime. Dr. Reynolds invented the product and has been successfully treating this patients since 1995 with these products. As far as allergic reactions go, this product is made from wheatgrass, the same thing that bread is made of. It's also gluten free. I believe it's approved for people of all ages (from infants to adults) because it's a natural product. You can check out his website for more information and testimonials. I hope this helps you in making an informed decision.

Wow that is terrible! My fiancee has eczema on her feet, and she has to use a prescription cream on it when it flares up. Anyways a wonderful product to use on your face *that will not cause a breakout* is St Ives Cucumber Eye and Face Stress Gel. Just do a yahoo search for it to get info if you want. If you decide to use it then for best results use it right after a shower, or pat your face with water to get it moisturized first. Then use the Gel to lock in that moisture. This is important for you because one of the problems with eczema is drying of the skin.
There are also some medicine that you can purchase. I would be a bit wary about applying them near my eyes but do as you wish. Hydrocortisone cream would be a good idea to reduce the inflammation, and it can be purchased without a prescription. If it itches try not to scratch it, as that will keep the flare up in place for a longer period of time. If necessary you can take an antihistimine in order to alleviate the itching..

Simple answer: no. You have to realise acne is hormonally-based. It occurs deep underneath the skin in the oil glands next to hair follicles. It's not actually caused by dirt/sweat/skin debris/black magic/aliens but simply by your hormones which control your oil production in your skin. Dirt CAN'T actually get down to wear the oil glands are and pimples form, that's impossible. Your skin is not a porous sponge, it absorbs very little. So face washes really don't do anything. Medication like antibiotics or Accutane can (or The Pill for women), but it all depends on the severity of your acne. Changing your diet can help but the thing is, different foods could be different triggers for different people; so don't just listen to one guy's experience of cutting out dairy products and start believing it will work for you. There are links between certain foods and acne, but it's still most a hormonal problem. The only proven cure for acne, that works on all ages/skin types, is currently is the prescription medication Accutane and only a dermatologist can recommend that for you. I think about 75% of people who take Accutane never have acne again in their lives after their treatment. In 3 weeks your acne could clear up by itself very easily, but I would see a dermatologist if this has been a persistent problem for you, because acne can very easily become a psychological problem as well as a physical one.

Hi,
You may want to try this. Go to cheapest prices search engine and enter your product search, like moisturizer, when you find the merchant you want to do business with, email them your concerns, or call them on their toll free phone number.
They also have over a million consumer written reviews.
I really hope this helps you.
