Preventing Irritation on Eczema‑Prone Skin: Keep It Hydrated!

Why Eczema Flares Up

Eczema, also called atopic dermatitis, does more than make skin sensitive. When the skin barrier weakens, irritation flares, leading to redness, dryness, and inflammation. Key triggers include:

• Dry or windy conditions, which strip the skin’s natural moisture
• Harsh soaps or chemicals, damaging its protective layer
• Stress and sweat, which elevate cortisol and spark inflammation

Regular hydration helps reinforce the skin’s barrier, preventing flare-ups before they happen.

3. Shield skin from extreme conditions, indoors or outdoors
4. Reapply moisturiser throughout the day for ongoing comfort
