Help with Eczema from Black Owned Brands

Eczema sign and symptoms of eczema — Photo Credit: MacXever

More than 30 million people in the United States suffer from eczema, a skin condition that contributes to dryness and inflammation of the skin as seen with patches of raised bumps. Eczema can affect the face, arms, and legs among other parts of the body. It is more common in children than adults and African American children are disproportionately affected. With eczema, the skin is less able to retain moisture and the skin does not serve as a preventative barrier for the penetration of unhealthful particles.

What helps? There are various levels of severity and you may want to consult a medical expert. According to experts keeping the skin hydrated is important, as well as moisturizing within three minutes after bathing or showering. Reapplying moisturizer throughout the day is also essential. Furthermore, heavy moisturizers with a lot of oil work best, and ones that are free of fragrance, dye, and paraben. Examples of helpful ingredients include coconut and jojoba oil, cupuaçu and Shea butter. It is also recommended that individuals affected with eczema use a mild soap or cleanser that does not dry the skin. The soap should not contain sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS).

Liquid laundry detergents are said to leave less of a residue on fabric, and using SLS free laundry detergents may help control eczema. Dryer balls as a fabric softer are considered safer than fabric dryer sheets.
