Hi Harlequin / Nutty mum,

The texture is like lard with a strong animal \"lard\" like scent - still bearable and it doesn't stay for long.

It doesn't sting like medicated oil though. Just imagine applying a thin layer of lard.

I've attached a pic fyi.

Hope this helps.

Hi, Ezmum.

Thank you for taking the trouble to put up the picture... :thankyou:
Will let dd try it.

Check your electric kettle. Is the heating element exposed n plated?


Some people react to the nickel/chromium plating.

Thanks... never thought of that! My kettle's heating element is a flat bed \"metal\". not sure of it's plating (not the keep-warm type, it's a cordless full glass kettle).... how do we find out the material used for plating?

:thankyou:

My son is 12 years old and his eczema is at the joints behind his knees. My friend has eczema at her neck and his son 18 years old also has eczema at the joints behind his knees.


We have been trying lots of products for eczema but a NO NO to steroid cream as these are the Local side effects of topical steroids:
■ Skin thinning (atrophy) and stretch marks (striae).
■ Easy bruising and tearing of the skin.
■ Perioral dermatitis (rash around the mouth).
■ Enlarged blood vessels (telangiectasia).
■ Susceptibility to skin infections.
■ Disguising infection e.g. tinea incognito.
■ Allergy to the steroid cream.

For people with eczema, their skin are extremely dry so they cannot use normal bathing / shower products.

Lately we found out a Japan brand shower product meant for hydrating skin and it works well.

Next, after bath, must apply cream. And we have been using a USA brand steroid free cream which works well too. We have to buy this from USA and it is only S$20 for 70oz (198g).

Hi - please let me know the brand name of this USA cream. need it for my dd. Thanks

BTW, several years ago, my girl developed a mix of eczema and fungus after she started wearing a pair of fake crocs.


On hindsight, I believe that there must have been chemical used that triggered that episode.

Sometimes it just needed some chemical to trigger it. These days, the detergents we use contains all sorts of chemical…and enzymes to speed up chemical reactions. Some of us may just react more adversely to them.
