Childhood eczema affects around 10% of children and babies and the symptoms can range from mild to severe. William has suffered from sensitive skin since he was born and has flare ups of eczema when he's stressed or unwell. His delicate skin reacts to almost everything and becomes very dry and itchy if its' not kept moisturised.
The use of emollients are standard treatment in the prevention and day-day treatment or management of eczema. They are lotions, creams, ointments and bath/shower additives which oil the skin to keep it supple and moist and help to protect it from irritants. Although essential and effective the very nature of their purpose often leads them to being thick and somewhat difficult to rub in.
This can not be said for the Eau Thermale Trixera+Creme Emolliente. When I was asked to review this product I expected it to work but was actually surprised by it's gorgeous light consistency. It absorbs really quickly and doesn't leave Williams Jim Jams clinging and sticking to him as often happens with other brands. It leaves his skin feeling super soft and silky and we give it a definite thumbs up.
The cream retails at around £11.00 for 200mls so is slightly more expensive than some of the other leading brands but if you want to pay a little extra for something that little bit lighter and extra special then I would definitely recommend it.
The brand it's self is centered around Avène Thermal spring water and its soothing properties. Originating as rain, the water filters through the Cévennes Mountains absorbing precious minerals and trace elements for 40 years until it reaches the mouth of the ancient Sainte-Odile spring. Its unique composition makes Avène Thermal Spring Water ideally suited for the care and management of sensitive skin and in my opinion it works.
