How To Care For Dry, Eczema-prone Skin


Baby-soft skin is possibly the most scrumptious thing ever, but to keep our babies’ skin beautifully smooth, we have to tackle the issue of dry, eczema-prone skin, which is common amongst a lot of babies.

I suffer from extremely dry skin all over my body and my husband has eczema-prone skin on his eyebrows, so it came as no surprise when we recently found out that our son James has dry, sensitive skin along his body. I did my research and discovered the AVEENO® Cream, which seemed to be the right product for the job.

The AVEENO® Cream is a non-greasy and quickly absorbed cream with such a gentle formula that it can be used on babies from 3 months old. It’s also suitable for sensitive skin, dry skin and eczema-prone skin, so it really is a good all-round moisturiser for the entire family.

The main ingredient behind the amazing results that we have seen using the AVEENO® cream for the management of my son’s dry, eczema-prone skin, is naturally active colloidal oatmeal, which helps to restore the skin’s natural barrier, leaving a hydrating and soothing feel on the skin. Here’s a little historical fact for you: oatmeal baths have been used for centuries, even the Egyptians used it for its moisturising and soothing effects on the skin, especially for sensitive skin.

The AVEENO® Cream has a lightweight texture with a velvety-smooth finish that feels like a protective layer on the skin. I like that it’s unscented because although my skin is not particularly sensitive to fragrance, I like to make sure that nothing will aggravate the eczema patches on my son’s skin.

I’m pleased to say that his dry skin improved within 4 days of using the AVEENO® Cream, which is brilliant! We’re actually doubling up on his moisturisers by using the AVEENO® Bath & Shower Oil in his bath, and that helps to condition and moisturise his skin. This bath and shower oil also contains the naturally active colloidal oatmeal, so he gets the benefits of this powerful skincare ingredient twice.

Snow day!! ☃️ We have two very excited childre Snow day!! ☃️ We have two very excited children and a puppy, ready some snow fun today! Might as well make the most of it, because this is probably all we’re going to get. Oh I do love snow! 😍❄️
“Anxiety is also feeling like you have no contro “Anxiety is also feeling like you have no control over your life and there’s a knot if your stomach. You feel like your world is crashing down around you and you’re expected to sit there and act like you’re fine.”

Yesterday was a right old day - I wasn’t myself. I needed silence to reset... but didn’t get it. So I carried on not sounding like myself, being curt, snappy, sometimes a bit hurtful.

Do you know when you just can’t snap out of it? You take a deep breath and promise you will react differently to a stressful situation, but a minute later you catch yourself spilling over before you even realise the pan was boiling.

I took some time to reflect in the evening and exposed everything that was causing me frustration, stress, anxiety and worry.  Guess what the common denominator was?

A feeling of not being in control.

I’ve always needed some sort of order and control to feel like myself and right now we’re positivity not in control of anything really, are we?

I’m glad I can recognise the triggers for my anxiety and today I made sure I established some form of control first thing in the morning to give my day the best chance to be a good one.

So I cleaned the house, I made sure the puppy had plenty of naps, I scheduled 1-2-1 time with both kids and that made me feel so much better.

I know I only tackled the consequences, not the causes of my anxiety and my need to feel in control, but that was enough for me today.

There’s - always - more work to be done, but accepting the small wins is part of it.

How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind right now? It’s so important to check in with ourselves instead of ignoring how we feel and burying our heads in housework, jobs, kids and life admin.

💫 What do I need?

That’s a good way to start. I’ll list a few things I need right now. They don’t all have to be grand things, sometimes I only need the smallest things.

1. I need to wash my hair.
2. I need silence.
3. I need to rearrange some rooms in the house (don’t know why I need this, but I really do).
4. I need to zero my inbox.
5. I need uninterrupted sleep.
6. I need a good hearty meal.
7. I need to exercise.
8. I need to smile.
9. I need to see my mum.
10. I need to put my needs first.

If I were to pick just one need right this second, I’d say number 2. I’m normally really sensitive to loud noises, but today... dear me! Even a slightly louder whisper was annoying me! 🙈
I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jeal I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jealous of this cosy situation! 😍 Oh Benji boy, you’re bringing us so much joy already! 🐶🤎

Trust the process ✨ I chose this phrase to repre Trust the process ✨ I chose this phrase to represent 2021 for me and it couldn’t be more fitting.

Every time I find myself thinking things won’t work out before even giving it a chance, I repeat to myself “trust the process”. It gives me the strength I need to keep going and just like that... things do work out. Always.

This lockdown has been so much harder than the first one for me. How have you found it?

I thought it was going to be the same or easier than the first time because we’d done it before, but it’s actually been so much more testing.

The only way I’m getting through it is by 💫 trusting the process 💫
