Curel Itch Defense Calming Body Lotion, Moisturizer for Dry, Itchy Skin, Body and Hand Lotion, with Advanced Ceramide Complex, Pro-Vitamin B5, Shea Butter, 20 Oz

Using the tubs of lotion for extra dry itchy skin. I just did not take. Curel itch control a lotion for serious problem skin. Huge mistake, this is superior to all I have tried. After regular use I found myself touching my skin. First to go was my arm and leg dandruff. My skin is soothed, no itch and the softest it's ever been. Thanks Curel.

Yes! Things labelled sensitive skin usually still flare my eczema or give me rashes, this is the only lotion I can actually use and it helps so much! It doesn't really have a good smell, but I'm okay with that because my skin feels so good after using that it's worth it.

Product and price excellent. Great service

EffectiveMy only issue is the pump is not adequate for the thick viscosity of the fluid.

Best lotions for Ezcema and really itchy skin due to dryness . Have been using for years .

good product

Like and use the product daily.

My Eczema recently came back after 30 years of being in remission much to my surprise and horror. But because it's been so long I had no clue what's currently out there for eczema products. I found the NEA website (National Eczema Association) and it's been very helpful. I was on their Facebook page one day and saw a couple of people recommended this Curel 'Itch Defense' formula. I have to be honest, Curel is one of the last companies I would ever think to turn to for this type of product; I know they're a fairly popular brand, but I just didn't think of them as making "serious" products for skin conditions. But I went to Curel's website and checked it out.Sure enough, it's a fragrance-free formula designed for eczema and with ingredients I was told to look for and none of the ingredients I was told to avoid. Two things sold me on trying it: 1. It had the NEA Seal of Acceptance. That's a big deal, that means they went through vigorous tests and reformulating in order to meet the criteria of the NEA's standards, including avoiding all ingredients on the NEA's known list of irritants. 2. The price! I had spent hours comparing labels on some very expensive eczema-friendly moisturizers and here was one that seemed to fit the bill AND came in a huge 20 ounce bottle for a very fair price.The lotion is thicker than I expected, somewhere between a lotion and a cream in thickness. It's white but slightly translucent which reflects the highly emollient ingredients like petrolatum and dimethicone. Both are said to be excellent for eczema but many eczema moisturizers will have one or the other, this has both. It goes on thick but spreads VERY nicely. It's definitely on the heavy side, you can really feel that "barrier" on the skin. That's exactly what eczema patients need, a moisture barrier on their skin - not a lotion that disappears/evaporates, but the downside to that is that I personally find it an annoying feeling, a slight tackiness on the skin that lingers for a long time, but I'll live.I did get immediate (albeit not total) relief of my INSANE itching. It didn't disappear entirely, but I got relief of the worst of it and some areas have stopped itching, so it's still a huge improvement. I've started using it in two ways: Putting it all over my body morning and night and after showers, and also "spot treating" areas, spreading a small amount like an ointment on an area that starts itching out of the blue - it soothes the itch enough for me to leave it alone and I repeat that as needed. I've decided this: I do still need to find a specific treatment cream or ointment to put on the worst areas during flare-ups, but this Curel formula is excellent for after showers to seal in moisture and for general use all over my body on a daily basis during dry winter months. I have to admit I've misjudged Curel; it turns out this is an excellent quality formula that I probably would not have tried if it weren't for the NEA Seal on the bottle.
