What causes eczema-prone skin?
Eczema-prone skin usually has a weakened barrier. This means that moisture escapes more easily, leaving the skin feeling dry and tight, and prone to flare-ups.
Using a fragrance-free, lipid-replenishing skincare range daily can help:
- Restore essential lipids
- Reduce feelings of itching and discomfort.
- Protect against environmental stressors.
- It also helps to maintain skin hydration for longer.
Building a consistent skincare routine is key to managing dry and eczema-prone skin.

Understanding eczema-prone skin in babies & children
We know parenting comes with its challenges, and managing eczema-prone skin in your baby can be particularly stressful. Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a chronic skin condition affecting up to 1 in 3 children in Australia. It causes dry, itchy, and inflamed patches on the skin, often disrupting sleep and overall well-being for both child and caregiver.
