Do you have eczema? ...
Immediately after washing the affected area and patting it dry, apply a moisturizing cream. This can help to restore moisture to your skin and will improve the appearance of dryness and scaling associated with eczema. Regular use of a moisturizer will help you to break out of the "dry skin cycle", which is caused by the skin's inability to self hydrate and repair its natural moisture barrier function. Applications of lotions and creams will continually replenish lost moisture and help those with eczema to manage chronic dry skin.
