Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Body Balm, Moisturizing Eczema Treatment, Ceramides, Triple Oat Complex, Soothes Dry, Itchy Skin, Hypoallergenic, Fragrance & Steroid Free, 11oz

This balm worked very well for my baby’s eczema, especially when used at night. It’s thick and moisturizing but not greasy, and it absorbs nicely into the skin. After a few nights of use, I noticed less redness, dryness, and scratching, and my baby seemed more comfortable sleeping. It’s fragrance-free and gentle, which is very important for sensitive baby skin. A little goes a long way, so the jar lasts a good amount of time. If your baby has dry or eczema-prone skin, this is definitely worth trying.

As an adult who has dealt with eczema on and off for years, I originally bought Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Balm for travel, but it has honestly become a staple in my routine. First, the texture is rich and balm-like, yet it does not feel greasy or heavy on the skin. It melts in nicely and creates a protective barrier that actually lasts overnight. I use it on dry patches around my hands, elbows, and sometimes on irritated areas during flare-ups. By morning, the redness and itching feel noticeably calmer. I really appreciate that it contains colloidal oatmeal and ceramide. The oatmeal gives almost instant soothing relief when my skin feels inflamed, and the ceramide helps lock in moisture so my skin does not dry out again within a few hours. It is fragrance-free, which is a must for my sensitive skin. No stinging, no strong scent, and no irritation. Even though it is marketed for babies, it works just as well for adult eczema. The 1 oz travel size is perfect for keeping in a purse or carry-on, especially during colder months when dry air makes everything worse. If you are an adult with mild to moderate eczema or stubborn dry patches, this is absolutely worth trying. It is a small container, but a little goes a long way. I will definitely be repurchasing, and next time I will likely go for the full size.

After wasting money on many supermarket and expensive brands, this is the only one that really works! I don't have eczema, but another friend does, who first told me about this product. I do have dry skin, though, whenever I over wash my hands due to chores, repairs or taking care of family, and the dry indoor heat or coldness of winter weather. My friend with eczema swears by this. She's tried other brands and even prescriptions, which have side effects (steroids thin the skin and is bad for your immunity). When her skin had cracks or is itchy, she applies it, and it heals up within a few days. She uses it also as maintenance daily, to prevent future outbreaks or skin cracking. There's the regular "Aveeno Eczema Therapy" in a tube, but it stings at first if you have any cracks in the skin, which subsides after a few minutes, but it works faster with sealing up cracks. I love this product because it's very rich, but not too greasy. It doesn't sting if you have skin cracks, and is gentler and still works well, but it takes a little bit longer. It's even more effective than the regular "Aveeno Baby Eczema Care" creme in a tube. I prefer jars because there's always some product left in a tube. You can't squeeze out what's left at the bottom, and have to cut the tube apart to get at it. AMAZON HAS THE BEST PRICE, that I've seen online or off. It's also available in the Baby Section only at stores like supermarkets, pharmacies, etc., but this is the lowest price. SUBSCRIBE, and you can save even more. DO NOT BUY ANY GENERICS! They don't work! I've tried buying them, since it looked like they had the same ingredients, and costs less, but they are simply not efficacious. USE WATER TO KEEP MOISTURE IN: Surprisingly enough, it's not the moisturizer per se that keeps your skin hydrated, it's water. For example, think of a grape (full, plump with water, juicy), versus a prune (a dried out grape). Moisturizer provides a physical barrier to keep your skin hydrated. Of course, a moisturizer's ingredients can also make it a superior or inferior product. The Aveeno Eczema line has colloidal oatmeal, which is soothing, and healing to the skin. HOW TO USE WATER WITH MOISTURIZER: Wet the application areas with water first (I run my hands lightly under the tap), so the product will absorb faster (water hydrates when mixed with moisturizer), and it won't be greasy. Your skin will feel non-greasy, and not wet within a few minutes. Use a paper towel or tissues to lightly wipe off the excess, and you can use your hands right away. I find that this method keeps my skin hydrated more effectively and longer. YOU'LL USE LESS CREAM WITH WATER: I use only a tablespoon size, and spread it all over my hands, and along my forearms and elbows. Water thins and spreads out the cream more easily. You can use it on DRY, CRACKED FEET, too. Apply it throughout the day after you wash your hands and before bed, and you'll never get dry skin or eczema outbreaks again! (Per me and my circle of friends). BUY SEVERAL JARS, and scatter around them the house, like the bathrooms, kitchen, work areas, etc. BONUS USES: 1. INSECT BITES: A friend reported that it even works in a pinch to help alleviate bug bites that she's gotten (fleas from animal rescue, mosquitoes, etc). Wash the area or use an alcoholic sanitizer or baby wipes to clean the bite area first. Then spread on Aveeno, if you don't have an antihistamine topical product handy. ALOE VERA GEL FROM THE PLANT also has miraculous healing powers with insect bites, burns, skin rashes, etc. You just cut a small piece at an angle, open it up with scissors along the leaf's seam, and apply the gel. You can wrap a bandage or strip of clean cloth lightly over the area to keep the gel in place, if you want. The cut plant area will close by itself within a day. Aloe vera is sold cheap at supermarkets, nurseries, etc., at under $10. The gel feels cool and soothing to the skin. The plant is superior to any packaged product. DO NOT SCRATCH THE ITCH! IF YOU IGNORE IT, IT'LL DISAPPEAR by itself within a few hours. Trust me, it really works with mosquito bites. I used to itch for days, until I stopped scratching it. Distract yourself by watching tv, reading or using your cell to ignore the itch, and just lightly apply your best anti-itch remedy (DO NOT RUB or you'll stimulate the histamines from the bite). Anytime that you're tempted to scratch, apply your remedy instead. THE BEST THINGS TO STOP ITCHING FAST (In order of effectiveness) are: 1) Anti-histamine topical product 2) Aloe vera gel from the plant (also heals the skin) 3) Aveeno creme (also heals the skin) 4) Alcoholic rub 2. SKIN RASHES: A friend of mine said she was by herself with the baby one day, stuck with no car and husband away, when the diaper creme had run out in the evening. She applied Aveeno several times, and the rash disappeared the next morning. Another friend used Aveeno for a strange rash that showed up on her arm when she accidentally brushed against some plants when hiking, and it disappeared within a few hours. She washed the area first, then applied the cream. Of course, it's best to use a product designed for rashes, especially for babies. And get any mysterious rash checked out by a doctor. Btw, I don't get compensated for any of my reviews. I wanted to give a recommendation for a fantastic moisturizer that I've been using for several years.

This body balm has a very thick consistency, which I really like because it feels deeply moisturizing and protective. My baby started developing a red rash on the stomach, and our pediatrician said it was likely eczema. We immediately stopped using our previous fragranced cream and began applying this balm generously every night. After just a few days, the rash on my baby’s stomach noticeably improved. The redness reduced significantly, and the skin looked much calmer and less irritated. Before purchasing, I carefully checked whether it was safe for babies and whether it contained fragrance. I was happy to see that it is fragrance-free, which gave me peace of mind. The results have been very satisfying. If your baby is showing eczema-like symptoms, I would definitely recommend giving this body balm a try.

I cannot recommend this product more. This is a must-have for all parents. Even if your kids don’t have eczema, this lotion moisturizes and leaves their skin feeling soft and buttery (not greasy!). We’ve been using this for two years and any time my baby had any flareups, this took care of it. I’m so impressed by this product and we’ll be using it for years to come, I’m sure.

This Aveeno baby face cream has worked really well for my baby’s sensitive, eczema-prone skin. I use it daily on the face, especially on dry and irritated areas, and it helps keep the skin soft, calm, and well moisturized. The texture is rich but not greasy, and it absorbs nicely without leaving the skin sticky. I’ve noticed a clear improvement in dryness and redness after consistent use, especially during colder or drier days. I appreciate that it’s gentle, fragrance-free, and suitable for delicate baby skin. It hasn’t caused any irritation or breakouts, which gives me peace of mind when applying it to my baby’s face. A small amount goes a long way, making it great for everyday use. Overall, this is a reliable and soothing face cream for babies who struggle with dryness or eczema. I would definitely recommend it to other parents.

This product is excellent for eczema and for winter dry skin! It’s heavy without overly greasey and seems to work well for my baby eczema. Fragrance free which is great and should work for all skin types since it’s not too too heavy. Perfect for after a nice bath. I purchased a few other eczema creams and this one works best so far. Texture is kind of like a mix of Aquaphor + any light lotion. I use it all over. Very moisturizing!

My two-year-old has suffered from mild eczema from the day they was born. We have tried probably a dozen creams/remedies and the poor kid just breaks out over and over. When we tried an OTC cortizone and it wasn't clearing her up, I felt helpless and defeated. I was ready to call the Dr to get a prescription (which, hey, thank goodness modern medicine has options!) but found this online and bought some as a last-ditch effort. It is the ONLY thing that has cleared their skin up and keeps it clear if we apply it right away! The cream is luxurious and the smell is very mild/non-irritating. It makes their skin so very soft and they stop itching when we put it on. We treat bid patches aggressively and apply this 2x a day, and for maintenance we apply once after every bath/shower. It is not sticky, but it is just a little bit greasy and will stain clothes if you put a huge glob on and then light fabric (like cotton) touch it before it soaks in the skin. Once it soaks in, it feels amazing on your skin! Everybody is different, but for us this is "the one"! We bought the giant tub and plan to repruchase whenever we run out. We keep the small jar in a diaper bag and swim bag for on-the-go.
