I suffered from
eczema as a child, but over the years it has
greatly improved. If I become
stressed or tired it sometimes
flares up - and it has recently
flared up again after the
birth of my daughter. It has probably been
triggered by tiredness and the fact that I am
constantly washing my hands which has left the skin
dry and
cracked. Vivaderm Daily is a rich
maintenance cream suitable for
skin prone to
dryness, eczema and
dermatitis. My hands were
cracked and
bleeding. It was a
vicious cycle, as it would get
worse after washing, however I could not avoid that with a
new baby.
After applying
Vivaderm Daily twice I noticed a
huge improvement. My hands were
less inflamed and red, and the cracked,
raw patches of skin seemed to be
healing. I now use the cream after each
hand wash and
after showering to prevent the
eczema and dryness returning. My
hands are now much
less dry and no longer
itchy or painful.
My partner, Neil,
also used the cream as he gets
really itchy patches on his torso and arms. He has noticed an
improvement and as a result is more
relaxed. We would both
recommend the cream to anyone with a
skin condition, but also to all as a
moisturiser as it leaves the skin
nourished and fresh.
I like
Vivaderm Daily as it has
no overpowering scent or artificial perfumes,
no parabens, colours or paraffins. The cream is
absorbed into the skin
quickly, which is brilliant as I am generally quick to
shower and dress these days with a new baby around!
Vivaderm Daily 200ml is available from
Amazon at £7.25.
