Several weeks ago I had run out of my usual drug store brand of moisturizer and ran to Target to replenish.   Only the Aveeno Eczema Therapy caught my eye.   I thought, well, I’m an Aveeno Ambassador and I’ve loved nearly everything I’ve tried from them so why not give this lotion a try.   Besides, the temperature outside had dropped dramatically, which means my skin becomes dry quite quickly and my eczema can flare up more easily.

Typically when you think of an cream for eczema it’s quite thick that can turn a lot of people off.  So I was quite surprised when I used this and it was so lightweight.   The formula is almost gel-like and not a heavy cream that I was anticipating.  There’s no fragrance, it absorbs quickly and feels great on my skin.  What’s not to like about that?!

The price is a little heftier than the average drug store hand cream at around $12 a 7.3 oz tube.  Target had a $1.00 off sticker on the tube when I bought it – another reason I gave it a try at first.  But, it works wonders and is a much better value than a “designer” cream for eczema which can run around $50.

It contains Colloidal Oatmeal – Aveeno’s known for that, and it’s steroid and fragrance free – which are great to not have those irritants for sensitive, dry skin.    I now need to replenish this, it’s that good.
