DS2 (19 months) has had dry skin/eczema on his arms, legs and torso since a few months old. It didn't seem to bother him, but after playing in the sandpit or swimming it really started to flare up. What worked for us is Moogoo soap in the bath followed by Nyal Eczema lotion sealed in with Sudocrem after his bath. Three weeks ago it had flared up so much that I started looking for something else to try and read about fish oil. Since then he gets one capsule a day in yoghurt and his dry skin/eczema has all but disappeared .
