Help!!
My daughter just broke out in a horendous ecema rash all over her legs and arms. We are on our way to Florida! What would be the best product to put on her? I have the ABC diaper rash creme and ABC lotion- either of these? Something else? I just slathered her with our good old standby Calendula Ointment for cuts/burns/scrapes. It heals pretty well, but not sure if something else would be better?

Eczema needs moisture also to help with the itching and flaking that can sometimes occur.

smileys/smiley36.gifI think Jolly meant sun, as in sunshinesmileys/smiley36.gif
the entire ABC line would be terrific and maybe a skin conditioning oil to put in your pocket for when you are out and about and she needs something conveniently?
eczema, from my understanding from my son's allergist, is a reaction to an allergy that is more likely to be from a food. take notice as to when she breaks out and has problems with it and keep a log of what she has eaten or what she's been exposed to and you may begin to see a pattern.

I agree with all that's been said. The sun is supposed to be good for eczema. I know that the RE9 Body system has helped people too. Particulary the Serum.
The Before SUN products are excellent. I use the self tanner and the lip balmall year round! The other prducts went with me toFlorida last month. LOVE!

You are right, Cassandra. Riley's DR said that it's an allergic reaction.
