Since the birth of my third child i have suffered from eczema, which comes in different forms of severity. I get an extreme bout of eczema when i am stressed, which is very painful. I have gone for a few years without treating it, not knowing what the skin condition was. Then i was recommened "e45" by the paractice nurse at my doctors surgery.
ABOUT E45
E45 is a dematological moisturising lotion which claims to " soothe,soften,relive dry and sensitive skin". It is an unperfumed lotion which is also hypo allergenic. Not all products on the market can be used all over the body, but e45 can be used everywhere! ...face,body, and hands. The bottle i purchased was in a 200ml, which cost me £3.65. It is also avaliable in a 500ml bottle, which is roughly £6.50.
The lotion was very liquidy . Once applied to the area took a while to be absorbed into the skin.( ( Crooked healthcare claim it is easily absorbed!) I suffer with a lot of irritation and dry skin on my hands. When applied i found it left my hands very greasy and slipperey. When the lotion had absorbed my hands were very soft to the touch
OVERALL
Would i buy again?? Yes, it does relive the itching on my arms, and soften my skin, although the greasyness does deter me a little.
