Marlene mentioned it today because she was given a sample & I wondered if anyone has tried it, I had no idea it existed. I'm off to buy some tomorrow anyway, cos I'd prefer to try something before resorting to steroid creams, but thought I'd ask if anyone has had success with it.
I have a tube of this... it's also for psoriasis (which my DH gets) but he hasn't had a flare up since I bought it. I got it because I trust Moogoo and have been very happy with their other products.... if I use it I'll let you know.
I cant stress enough how good this stuff is, I even ordered my second tube today. I use it after every bath on georgia because it looked like she was getting eczema but her skin is beautiful now. I also use it on my hands as I get dermatitis between fingers works a treat. It is well worth the money it lasts a while coz you dont need a lot.
Nope, didn't work here but I have concluded that I have freakish children because they get skin irritations from the "natural" type of products that everyone else on BB rave about. DH is using it up and he is a bit "meh" about it...they must have inherited his skin.
i did an experiment on DS's ezcema (lol blame researcher in me). On one half of his body, I did our normal routine of dermeze/dermaveen for moisturising plus Celestone-M on the eczema (prescribed for him). On the other side of his body, Moo Goo Eczema Balm on the irritation and Moo Goo's MSM Soothing Cream as the general moisturiser....
So what were the results? My conclusion (I know you can't wait to hear ) for us the Moo Goo was eventually as effective at keeping the skin less irritated but it wasn't as quick as the steroid creams. The BIG bonus is that you can use it in the folds of skin where you're not supposed to use the steroid creams, this was FAB!!! So saying, I still use the steroid creams if he really flares up as it seems to settle things quicker, but I'd really rather avoid the steroid creams where possible.
In terms of the moisturising, if it's really dry I still find the dermeze is better, and if I want him all soft & nice smelling (and not looking like a grease monkey!), then the MSM is the go. Only down side, the Moo Goo is more expensive so I just use it sparingly - I'm still on the first tube/tub of both and I bought it about 4 months ago. Definitely worth a try if you're prepared to shell out the $$$. GL!
