Shampoo and conditioner for sensitive skin

Hi all. I've currently got a lovely outbreak of stress related eczema on my face. I've got all the gubbins to help treat it, but I'm convinced that my shampoo and conditioner isn't helping, as the worst bit is where my fringe sits just above my eyeline. Any recommendations that would be good?

I get eczema too, mostly on my arms and the back of my neck. I use tresemme shampoos and conditioners. I don't find them irritating or too harsh but I think you'd be better checking the ingredients of what you already use, it's possible you're actually allergic to one or more of the ingredients. I come out in terrible, terrible rashes whenever I use ANY Pantene product, so bad that it has to be treated with steroid cream from the doctors.

Thanks. I've just stopped using the Fucidin H that the doc gave me, as it appears to be making things worse!

Hi Madlizzy, I know a good one, suitable for very sensitive skins (SLES free). It's for thinning hair so it has not to be too aggressive. I have been using it and it's definitely not affecting my scalp: it's called Foltene and it's in Boots or on Amazon, shampoo and conditioner. Hope it will be of any help, have a look at it :) And yes, be careful with chemical products!

I have massively sensitive skin but am ok with L'Oreal Anti dandruff shampoo.

Brilliant, that sounds good. Thank you. Smile

Moo Goo shampoo and conditioner. Not cheap but at least by using that and their body wash stuff I no longer have eczema so long as I don't do any washing up etc....
