The tried and tested product for general skin problems and itching is Gold Bond lotion, available in the US. I have the Ultimate version with Aloe, but I think any version will do. It is not specifically for eczema and will not replace steroid cream if you have a rash, but for calming an itch and repairing dry skin it is numero uno. dt The following user(s) said Thank You: LondonGirl | |

| Hi all, I have also had itchy lower legs and have often scratched in my sleep until bleeding. I have found with key is to keep moisturised as DT syas, especially after a bath or shower, but I am extremely careful not to use anything chemical, aim for organic when I can afford and at 'worst' ' Paraben Free'. Thanks for the heads up re the 'Gold Bond lotion' DT - Will investigate and check ingredients.?

www.amazon.co.uk/Gold-Bond-Ultimate-Heal...s=gold+bond+ultimate This is the one I have. I have never compared it to any others. It's really an American product but luckily Amazon UK carries it. Watch out if the shipper is American as it takes about 2 weeks to arrive unless you pay for express shipping. I suppose that Ebay UK would also have it, probably from a US shipper. dt The following user(s) said Thank You: LondonGirl | |

| Thanks DT - Trying to find ingredients. So many of these products have Lanolin in them and it builds up over time and I'm totally allergic to it like many, Aloe Vera always a good one though.

I hope I just uploaded a pic of the ingredients on my bottle. It does not say lanolin, however if you are allergic then probably better to write to the manufacturer to confirm. dt The following user(s) said Thank You: LondonGirl | |
