One of the search results provides information on a body lotion that contains shea butter, which is a common ingredient in skincare products. However, it does not provide any information on whether this product is suitable for people with eczema.
The other search results provide information on ingredients to avoid in skincare products if you have eczema. Some of the ingredients to avoid include:
-
Urea: While it can be a fantastic ingredient for certain skin conditions, it can be irritating and can contribute to damaging the acid mantle of the skin in atopic dermatitis (AD) patients.
-
Sodium lauryl sulfate: This is a common foaming agent used in various shampoos, conditioners, and body washes. It can cause allergic contact dermatitis in adults and children.
-
Propylene glycol: This is an emulsifier thats hidden in a lot of common topical moisturizers and creams. People who are allergic to propylene glycol can paradoxically flare when treated with topical steroids or oral antihistamines.
-
Fragrance: Certain "botanical oils or other herbal ingredients can lead to skin sensitivity, such as rose oil, vanilla, and sweet almond oil," says Dr. Garshick.
-
Balsam of Peru: This sweet-smelling fragrance (and sometimes flavoring agent) can be a big ol N-O for those with sensitive skin and especially eczema.
-
Formaldehyde: While the actual concentration of formaldehyde in many skincare products is low, it can still lead to an allergic reaction that can exacerbate eczema.
