6 Skincare Products for Eczema-Prone Skin

CeraVe Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser

Using a hydrating cleanser, like this foaming oil formula from CeraVe, is one way to soothe your eczema-prone skin. Formulated with ceramides, hyaluronic acid and squalane oil, this face wash cleanses away dirt, oil and more — without disrupting the skin’s moisture barrier

La Roche-Posay Lipikar Eczema Cream

Another step in my routine when my eczema starts to flare up is to switch to moisturizers that are designed to soothe and calm my skin, like the La Roche-Posay Lipikar Cream. This product is formulated with colloidal oatmeal, shea butter and niacinamide to provide soothing relief to itchy skin and help replenish lipids. It’s also fragrance- and steroid-free, which is a total win in my book.

CeraVe Eczema Relief Creamy Oil

Prefer a body oil over a thick cream? Reach for this eczema-friendly, itch-relieving pick from CeraVe. It’s formulated with colloidal oatmeal to soothe, hyaluronic acid to hydrate and ceramides to restore the skin’s moisture barrier. Despite being an oil, it’s surprisingly lightweight and sinks in quickly.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream

For another barrier repair cream option, check out the Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Advanced Repair Barrier Cream. This intensely hydrating face cream is a winter skincare staple, thanks to its potent formula featuring colloidal oatmeal and beta-glucan. It provides instant relief from dryness and irritation upon application.

CeraVe Healing Ointment

To finish my eczema-focused skincare routine, I always reach for the Healing Ointment by CeraVe. This super hydrating balm works to protect and soothe dry, cracked skin — it’s my favorite to use on joint areas around my arms and legs. Not to mention, it’s non-greasy and is free of lanolin, fragrance and preservatives.

Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray

When it comes to small eczema patches that develop on my face every so often, SOS Daily Rescue by Tower 28 is my go-to. It’s formulated with hypochlorous acid to help fight stressors that can irritate skin, which is much-needed when my eczema is misbehaving. Plus, the mist leaves behind the softest, most lightweight finish.
