    Excellent produit pour l'eczéma!

    Je souffre d'eczéma depuis une vingtaine d'années et j'ai essayé toutes les crèmes, lotions et baumes sur le marché. J'ai aussi reçu des prescriptions à base de cortisone qui ont aidé à contrôler mes crises d'eczéma, mais qui ne soulagent pas les démangeaisons.

    J'ai eu la chance de tester le baume anti-démangeaisons d'Aveeno et je dois admettre que j'ai été épatée par les résultats! La texture du baume se fond bien dans la peau et ne laisse pas de sensation collante. Étant donné qu'elle calme les démangeaisons, je n'ai pas le réflexe de me gratter, alors mon eczéma s'est considérablement amélioré. Je pense que ce baume, en combinaison avec mon onguent à la cortisone, contribuera à faire diminuer drastiquement mon eczéma. Aussi, son rapport qualité-prix est excellent; j'ai l'impression que le gros pot me durera pour plusieurs mois! Je recommande aux personnes souffrant d'eczéma d'en faire l'essai.

    Énoncé de divulgation: j'ai pu tester ce produit gratuitement dans le cadre de mon emploi chez ChickAdvisor, mais cette évaluation est honnête.

    Effective but Inconsistent

    To give you a context for my review, I have struggled with sensitive skin and eczema since I was a baby. My skin gets dry quite easily and our Canadian winters do not help. I am also a total Aveeno girl. I take frequent Aveeno oatmeal baths in the winter and am never without my Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion on my nightstand. That being said, I liked this product but was not in love with it.

    As anyone who struggles with eczema knows, you will try anything and everything to relieve the itch and sooth the rough patches and redness. As as result we've all tried countless products in our quest. While I found this balm to be effective for certain patches of my eczema, I found it totally ineffective on others.

    I noticed that it worked wonders on old, stubborn to heal patches, yet it was pretty ineffective in soothing my new flare ups. I had a few patches of skin with lingering redness, but not that much itch that had been around for months. Somehow this balm eliminated the rough patch and redness on these after a few days of applying only once a day after a shower. However I had some new flare ups occur while I was using this balm, and it did not seem to significantly reduce the redness or the itching on these. Unfortunately it did little to control the spread of the new flare ups as well.

    I will also say that it is not the type of balm that soothes the itch on contact. Many other eczema spot treatments claim to do this (and some do it well) but I don't think this balm is meant to be used that way. Where this product excels is as a daily general skin care product for itchy, dry and sensitive skin. It is a large tub (excellent value) and the condition of my skin where I had been using it is great. For example, I have several patches on my hands (particularly at the wrists and knuckles) so I used this balm 3 times a day on my entire hand. My hands are soft and the skin is smooth and moisturized. It hasn't controlled one of the new flare ups on my wrist, but the overall condition of my skin is lovely, and the roughness and redness of some older patches has cleared up.

    I received this product free to try from Aveeno and the Chickadvisor Product Review Club. Overall I do not think I would purchase it in the future but I would recommend it to a friend. Just because it wasn't entirely effective on my eczema does not mean that it would not work for others. Furthermore, it is a high quality product and a great value for the amount you use, and how far it goes.

    Great Relief for Itchiness

    I tried this balm as part of the Product Review Club.

    My skin has always suffered from eczema but it hasnt been too bad this winter. Though for some reason, my legs have been extremely dry and itchy this cold weather season. The balm provided instant relief and also mosturized my skin. It can feel a bit sticky but at least I don't feel the need to scratch my legs off.

    Aveeno Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm makes my eczema bearable

    I live in Canada where the winters are dry and very cold (-30C), so my eczema definitely acts up in this weather. Aveeno Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm is non-greasy and absorbs fast! I would definitely buy this again, as it helps with the itch and keeps my eczema at bay. Aveeno products are tried and true since I was a little girl -- this one is no different!

    Also, I'd like to disclose that I received this product for promotional purposes, but I would probably buy it.

    Works wonders with use

    I loved this product. With continued use eczema gets more relief. It is a little greasy but it works. I would purchase this in the future. And i will tell my friends about it.

    Quasi instantanné

    Il est vraiment difficile avec de l’eczéma de trouver une bonne creme hydratante qui va gérer la peau qui gratte. Des la première application j’ai senti un appaisement quasi instantanné. La creme est assée épaisse et riche pour controler pendant pratiquement toute la journée cette peau qui pique. Le seul point négatif que je pourrais dire est que la creme est un peu difficile à rincer sur les doigts/mains apres l’application.
    J’ai eu la chance de recevoir #gotitfree ce produit de la part de ChickAdvisor et d’Aveeno en échange de mon avis.

    Love /Hate Relationship

    I very much am having a love /hate relationship with this product, although overall, I would say it really is very good, because it delivered on its promise to relieve the itch.

    On the plus side, it:
    * Actually did relieve itching almost instantaneously
    * Helped to soothe dry and highly irritated skin
    * I like that it had a very minimal scent - HUGE PLUS!
    * Even worked on my horribly dry "winter skin"
    * Smoothed out the rough patches on my hands
    * Held up through a few hand washes, so you didn't have to re-apply constantly.

    The only real "negative" for me was the amount of silicone in it. (Which is why it held out through hand washing.) It did a great job, but it felt almost sticky until it absorbed, which was mildly unpleasant. It cleared up some areas with eczema, although not all, but it did make it feel much better if it didn't clear it.

    Best Non Medicated Eczema Cream

    My sons and I all suffer from Eczema/dry skin. When one of my son's was a baby his eczema was so bad that we would get scabs on his face and the only remedy out there was a mediated steroid cream that we received from the doctor(which I hated having to use). Nowadays my sons only suffer from light cases of Eczema patches and this product is fantastic for it.

    The texture is not too thick, there is no scent, and it leaves the applied area with a nice 'layer' of cream keeping you moisturized without being too greasy. I placed this on my son and within 2 days his eczema patch on his cheek was gone (applied this cream in the morning and at night before bed). My only issue with this product is it is a little on the pricey side - but it is worth every penny. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who suffers from light to moderate eczema - not sure how it will work with severe cases of eczema.

    Good relief

    Well-sized jar of cream. Good consistency and reliefs itchiness. Great for the winter time when skin is usually dry and itchy. I received this product for free as part of the Product Review Club.

    Works To An Extent

    I tried this product out first on my hands, and was surprised that it did help in relieving the itchiness. I had rubbed a little on a patch that was on my face, and was pleasantly happy that it helped. The texture of this cream is thick, but it is easy to apply. I had the chance to try it out also on a mild rash that I had and it seemed to work in a sense. Maybe I didn't give it enough time, I'm not too sure. As for the value of this product, you do get a lot of product, as stated the texture is thick and you don't need to use a lot of it. So, yes, it works to an extent, but it is worth trying out. So, overall, I do give my recommendation to others to give it a shot. #gotitfree
