To not want to go on a hot holiday again

Because what I assume is heat rash has ruined it for me? I have spent just about every night and part of the day scratching myself like some demented chimp. As a result I’m tired and grumpy. It’s not even that hot, probably about 28 degrees. I look round the pool at other smooth glistening tanned folk and I’m so envious. I’m just not made for heat am I? How do others cope with it.

Dermal is my go-to emollient prescribed for me by NHS Dermatologist.
Comes as a lotion in a no-nonsense plakky pump dispenser & can be bought OTC for about £12.

It moisturises & the active ingredients manage the itching as no other skincare product has done for me before. It can also be used as a soap substitute.

Possibly the best skincare item I have used in over x decades of eczema & wildly reactive skin. Dermol tames the Itching Beast.

I never go on hot holidays I bloody hate them. Give me a ski or snowy cabin holiday in Scotland any time.
