Every minute of the day can be focused on the itching and discomfort that comes with eczema for those with the condition.

The Eczema Society of Canada has developed a seal of acceptance program with their expert panel of dermatologists.  It applies to products that eczema sufferers can use and not irritate their condition.

Amanda Cresswell-Melville, Executive Director of Eczema Society of Canada, has more.

“The program includes personal care products and laundry products whose ingredients and clinical testing data have all been evaluated to see if they meet the seal criteria. That’s a really great place to start for people to look for products that are suitable for eczema.”

See the list of approved items by going to eczemahelp.ca.

You will also find other resources on the site, including trigger avoidance and the various treatment options currently available.
