I found an alternative that really works well. It's called "Static Eliminator Reusable Dryer Sheets". It's a reusable cloth with no fragrances or other chemicals. You just keep it in the dryer and somehow, it really does work as well or better than the liquid or disposable dryer sheets. I got mine from mileskimball.com (item 82511) but you can google the name for other sources. Fabric softeners are even worse than the detergents. I found an

Things will go fine for several days, then the exact same lotion or whatever provokes a flare up. Very Frustrating. I’m glad to hear someone else say this, because I’m experiencing the

I use lavender) as a body scrub. This isn't good to use on your day to shave though. lol -Raine Shagufta Khatoon wrote: Try either sugar or sea salt in olive oil (you can add a few drops of

I've been looking for a great exfoliator...because when I'm in the shower, I always (this is nasty I know) used my nails to scrape the dry skin off. It would come of very nicely, but obviously no good for my eczema. Then I heard plain regular sugar is a great exfoliator. I used it in the shower, and that particular day I was very itchy, and when I came out it was like I was a new person...my skin felt so soft and I felt so relaxed... But I tried it again a week later...and it was the same as before using the sugar. So i guess you have to use it rarely to get the great effects... I haven't used it much after that...but it is great for the soles of your feet..it really softens them up. shagufta <!--more--> Also - about coconut oil - I am starting to rotate it in with olive oil and with that heavy thick Eucerin cream (the oily one) because, after a few days, my skin was getting aggravated again.

Also - about coconut oil - I am starting to rotate it in with olive oil and with
that heavy thick Eucerin cream (the oily one) because, after a few days, my skin
was getting aggravated again. I don’t think it was the coconut oil, which felt
great, but that my body seems to keep reacting to things, no matter how neutral
