For Eczema "I'm from the Philippines, and this cream has been recommended by the pediatrician of my 3-week-old daughter, who had skin allergy/eczema possibly from the mussels I ate and passed on to her through my breastmilk since I'm exclusively breastfeeding. After she took a bath, I applied a very small amount on the affected area (both arms), to which she reacted a little bit since this ointment can have a mild burning sensation. After a few minutes, the oozing area was dry, and the redness was fading. I'm very glad this ointment is effective since it's quite expensive."

For Psoriasis "Works extremely well on the face. If you have a flare-up, it takes 2 days to disappear. That's the only reason I give it an 8 instead of a 10."

For Eczema "This is a great lotion for eczema, but it tends to get used to the skin after about half the bottle, which results in you having to get a new one or a different product."

For Eczema "This product works in a few days, is not visible on the skin, and I found no side effects. I used it twice a day, and the skin was clear in 3 days. I stopped using it then and was free of symptoms for several months. Once it started reappearing, I repeated the 3-day treatment. It comes in a 40-gram tube and lasts a long time. This was for facial treatment around the nose and above the eyebrows in the middle of the forehead."
