it's not cheap - 30ml pot is £7.99, 60 ml £12.99, 120ml £18.99 - worth it if it works though!

and the article says you can get it on prescription.

Has it helped anybody on here?

We've tried Skin Salvation and it's fantastic. Although we weren't able to get it from the doctor. My son says it doesn't sting at all, even on his really sore bits. For it not to sting is amazing because even aloe vera stings him. Anyway, you can message me if you have any questions. Fab product 10 out of 10!

We were not impressed either. DS said 'ouch' when I put it on his eczema and said it really hurt. My SIL and friend tried a bit on theirs, too (as I thought they might at least make use of it-I'd stupidly bought the big pot!) and both said it really stung.

It's a bit rubbish if you can't use it on open skin!

I've been using it on my small patches of eczema and it has helped with the redness and scaling and I have also used it on my daughters eczema and it seemed to work for her. I got a sample to try first from a brilliant website www.pureandgentle.com they have samples of most of their products and loads of information about skin problems.

I used Skin Salvation for my daughter when she had eczema, and their nappy salve which was brilliant. The skin salvation stopped the itching and dryness. It is a little pricey but was worth it.

I used Skin Salvation on my daughter (when she was 2)onto the market... I couldn't recommend it enough. Even though it's pricey, (you may be able to get it on prescription)- list here:

It's like magic cream, daughter's bad eczema disappeared after a few treatments, she hasn't flared up until now (she's nearly 5), so I have ordered another pot!

Hope this helps!
