I'd appreciate any suggestions for a cream or butter etc for a person with very bad eczema. I've been asked to come up with something. I thought maybe aloe butter. I really like the way it feels. Has anyone every infused aloe butter with calendula before? I thought that might be helpful.
Appreciate any thoughts. :D
 
Calendula is always nice for it's perported anti-inflammatory properties (just can't make that claim on your product) and oatmeal is very soothing.
 
I have heard that Kukui Oil is very good for the skin and skin problems, it can be mixed with baby lotions etc and can help clear up eczema...!

This website sells it at a good price too: http://www.letsgetsoapy.co.uk
 
People tell me that my baby bum balms work wonders on eczema.

mostly grapeseed oil
beeswax
cocoa butter
shea butter
avocado oil
almond oil
olive oil with calendula
lavender eo
chamomile extract

other eos good for eczema are carrot, rosemary, palmarosa, frankincense, cedarwood, geranium, patchouli.

Neem, emu, hemp, & rosehip oils are also good.
 
I have read a few places that Turkey Red Castor Oil is supposed to be good for eczema.
