EpiCeram (emollients) for Dry Skin "I think some folks may be confused about what this is supposed to do and the days it takes to do it. It restores your skin's own barrier to help heal and prevent a "break" = eczema and atopic dermatitis. You put it on first, then your prescription a few minutes later, if you need one. You use it for at least 2-4 weeks to strengthen your own skin from the damaged outer layer so it stops and prevents an active break(out). Almost nothing worked on me, including "shielding lotions." From their instructions: Should EpiCeram® be prescribed along with corticosteroids or a topical immunomodulator, it is recommended to apply EpiCeram® just a few minutes before applying steroids or topical immunomodulator to allow proper penetration."

Blistex Lip Balm (emollients) for Dry Skin "I bought a set of 3 fruit smoothies Blistex lip balms. At work I ran out of my Burt’s Bees and pulled these guys out. I have been using them at work for 3-4 days and couldn’t figure out why my lips hurt, were scaley, swollen, and really burning (where my lip meets the inside of my mouth) then figured out this is the only new thing I have done different. No outdoor time, no new foods, or new face lotions. And even only using them 6 hours a day (then other kinds at home) they have totally blown up my lips! I read these reviews and it confirmed my suspicions! Just don't use these! Yikes!"

EpiCeram (emollients) for Dry Skin "My face had bright red almost raw patches of skin with no itching. Tried Aloe, Aveeno & everything made it worse. EpiCeram was like a miracle product & the only thing that cleared it up. However, after using for a while & rebuilding skin barrier I end up with dry flaky skin patches that then need mild exfoliation. I don’t know if this is from excess buildup of skin barrier or not. It’s become a vicious cycle. I’ve become my own advocate. In conclusion EpiCeram clears up rawness but then causes very dry flaky patches. I don’t find it moisturizing but it does help with raw skin"

Eucerin (emollients) for Dry Skin "As a recent (1 yr) below knee amputee, the sweating I suffer between my residual limb and my gel liner is a constant struggle. Constant washing off my stump causes severe dry skin issues. Used eucerin after cleansing, this would cause a minor burning sensation leading to my stump becoming red and irritated, looking like a strawberry. Stopped using eucerin, applied "Sween 24" from Coloplast, redness subsided."

Replens (emollients) for Vaginal Dryness "I used this product Replens for the first a few hours before having sex and immediately notice a white rubbery yeast like substance. I knew it wasn’t a yeast infection because I had no other symptoms. It happened suddenly after using. I was able to extract some of the stuff to check for an odor. Thankfully no odor or any other symptoms. So I tried again to make sure it was the Replens, but this time I did a self check and found nothing in my vagina so I proceeded to use the product. Then a few minutes later, I inserted a figure a pulled out this rubbery substance again. I cleaned myself and through the remaining 12 doses in the trash! HUGE WASTE OF MY MONEY!!! Don’t purchase this product. Use coconut oil it works better."

Replens (emollients) for Vaginal Dryness "I am 56 years old and experienced a surgical induced menopause after having both ovaries removed 12 months ago. I started using Replens approx 3 weeks ago and it states to use twice weekly. My GP prescribed as I was experiencing what I can only describe as discomfort around the urethra (and just inside the vaginal opening). After using Replen 5 times it's not helped much, but I haven't experienced the brown discharge or any discharge for that matter, which worries me as if I'm putting it up there, where's it going? I'm writing this as three days ago I started with irritation in the vaginal opening which has got worse. Day 3 today, and only toilet paper with cold water soothes it. The area is sore, red, and a burning sensation. I've used Canesten thinking it might be that, but after reading these comments convinced it's Replens that's causing it. I am also on Vagifem twice weekly and HRT 1% daily. This prod is expensive too. Going to try natural SYLK now, as lots of women have recommended it."

CeraVe (emollients) for Dry Skin "I decided to invest in more expensive skin care products. I don’t have problem skin but I’m turning 40 next year and wanted to level up my skin care regimen. I bought cerave hydrating cleanser and then after 2 weeks I broke out in a rash all over my face. After 2 weeks I’m still suffering and will be seeing a doctor tomorrow. I have zero issues with my skin. I just wanted to maintain my nice skin. I can’t believe I used this product that ruined my skin. I’m itchy all over my face!!"

Aquaphor (emollients) for Dry Skin "My late husband’s back was badly broken out from radiation and chemo which were focused on his neck. We applied aquaphor and by the next day it was already showing signs of clearing up. The itching stopped as soon as I had applied it! I continued to apply it whenever his back was itchy. I now use it in the winter to moisturize my arms and legs. I love this stuff!"

Replens (emollients) for Vaginal Dryness "after using Replens I have had white clumps the next day as well as reddish some times brownish and this only happened the next day after use. Not too mention a couple of minutes after use I had burning. Once I had a yeast infection from it within a week and I've not had a yeast infection in 25 years . Yes it does moisturize and last and I love that but the side effects are not normal ."

Dermasil Lotion (emollients) for Dry Skin "I used this lotion on my hands and elbows for dry skin. Within minutes I broke out in hives all over my body. It was itching uncontrollably and my face, eyes, lips, and hands swell up like a balloon. I ended up in ER with an epinephrine shot. This product needs taken off selves. Hypoallergenic???? False advertising. Want to rate 0/10."

Aveeno (emollients) for Dry Skin "I used Aveeno for Dry Skin Relief Body Wash four different times. Got big itchy welts on my arms but mostly on my thighs and legs. Itched so bad I couldn't stand it. Quit using it and the welts are finally going away. Don't know what ingredients are in it to cause this problem, but will not use it again."

Cetaphil Cleanser (emollients) for Dry Skin "I bought this thinking it would be mild. I have used another variation of it in the past without issues. I think I have used this for about a week and noticed my top eyelids are red, and now dry patches and itchy and swollen. I am assuming it has to be the cleanser. I hope it goes away without having to go to the dr. My eyelids actually hurt. Never again will I use this product."

Blistex Lip Balm (emollients) for Dry Skin "Used orange mango spf15 Blistex and it made my lips red, swollen, itchy and burning sensation. Felt like I had Botox or something, lips were big than normal. And all I wanted was to prevent dry chapped lips, instead I got Botox looking lips. Going on day 3 and they’re still the same!! Horrible product!! I didn’t expect this outcome! DO NOT BUT!! Shame on Blistex for not fully researching the effects of this product!!"

EpiCeram (emollients) for Dry Skin "I have moderate eczema around my eyelids, and though cortisone based creams do have a beneficial effect in bringing down the inflammation, irritation, scaling, dryness and itching, I was concerned that long term use would cause my skin to thin, and also that I might get glaucoma or cataracts. I decided to try Epiceram after reading that Stanford medical researchers now believe that eczema is not an autoimmune disorder, but is caused by a breakdown of the skin's natural barrier due to dryness. The theory is that if you can re-moisturize the skin, outside insults from the environment will not trigger an attack. After using it for 5 days, Epiceram worked amazingly well, but to avoid stinging in my eyes, I shut my eyes after applying to let it dry."

Blistex Lip Balm (emollients) for Dry Skin "I purchased the Blistex strawberry coconut lip smoothies as a part of a 3 pack. After using it my lips turned bright red, burn, are hot to touch, itchy, and very swollen. I’ve put ice on them but it’s been two days and hasn’t gotten any better. The other scents/flavors in the pack didn’t give me this reaction. I really think there is something wrong because this is the second time this happened after using the strawberry one."

EpiCeram (emollients) for Dry Skin "I have been an eczema sufferer all of my life. For the most part I am eczema-free now except for my eyelids and intermittent body flares. I had been using Protopic which worked very well except I had a sensitivity to an inactive ingredient which caused large cysts on my eyebrow area which were painful. I was given trial samples of EpiCeram to use. Quite honestly, I do not find it helpful. The Protopic would clear my skin in 1-2 applications (along with the steroids for my body) whereas EpiCeram I would apply twice a day for an entire week and saw no improvement. In fact, I had a rash on my chest that I was applying the EpiCeram to and it seemed to make it worse.Used it on my face and broke out with small pimples and blotchy."

Blistex Lip Balm (emollients) for Dry Skin "I used the Blistex fruit smoothies strawberry coconut chapstick last night and woke up with red itchy swollen lips. This has happened to me before and I thought maybe something was going on with me went to urgent care because my lips were swollen for almost a week and they hurt. Couldn’t find anything wrong with me. Here after last night and remembering I used this chapstick I go and check to see if anyone has ever had a reaction to it and I see all these reviews with people experiencing the same issue. Why is this still being sold in the stores?? My throat was itchy as well. I would not recommend this brand to anyone."

I washed my hands and put them under running cold water. It's been 15 minutes and the burning has gone away. My knuckles still look swollen but are calming down. Eucerin is an OTC skincare cream. This is the first time I used it."
