Have eczema? (Why is that word so tricky to spell?) Want to heal it quickly, easily? We feel that. So do the Aussies, because one of their favoured skincare brands, Flexitol (renowned for its one-day rejuvenating Lip Balm) has a Face & Eyelid Eczema Cream is said to give your skin the instant gratification you need.
Clinically tested and suitable for even the most sensitive skin, this face cream is mix-mastered with colloidal oatmeal to protect your epidermis. Not only does it bind to your skin to lock in moisture and give your face a chance to rehydrate, but it also blocks irritants like pollution, dirt and grime from sneaking their way in so that you have some temporary relief. A bit of a miracle ingredient, it also acts as an anti-inflammatory and rebalances your skin’s natural pH levels, while softening it and soothing itching. The addition of Shea butter, glycerol and aloe add to the moisturizing and soothing equation.
All you have to do is smooth on a pea-sized amount across your face or just the affected areas and wait for the relief to set in. Just take care to avoid getting the product into your eyes when applying it to your eyelids. We recommend massaging the cream in before you go to bed so that your skin feels new and improved in the morning.
Flexitol Face & Eyelid Eczema Cream, $18.49 for 46 ml, available at Shoppers Drug Mart.
