Has anyone used Hope's Relief cream for eczema?  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I have been Googling and Googling and Googling, trying to find the perfect eczema cream for DD. Some of the things listed in Digestive Wellness for eczema were licorice root, black cumin seed oil, quercetin, turmeric, and neem. I was hoping to find a product that had a least one of those things. But everything that I can find either: has parabens , has almond oil (we're off almonds, so not even chancing that!), or has a long list of other chemicals that don't seem safe for an infant.

So after an hour of Googling, I found this product called Hope's Relief Cream. It has calendula, licorice root, aloe, sulfur (plus a bunch of other stuff), all of which I know is good for eczema. The only problem is that it's made in Australia, and the only sites that sell it are in Australia or the UK. But we found one that ships internationally, so we are ordering it. But I was curious if anyone out there in the MDC allergy world has tried it and can tell me if it's any good before I pay for international shipping.

Just wanted to bump this and let you guys know that we did end up ordering this- got it the other day.

I have a huge nasty patch of eczema behind one of my knees that has been pretty bad this week, so I decided to try it on me before putting in on DD. I put it on twice yesterday, and it is WAY better today!! Perhaps it's coincidental... but I will try it on DD some time this week and let you know how it works for her.

Here's what's in it if your curious:
  • calendula
  • licorice root
  • gotu kola leaf
  • manuka honey
  • aloe vera
  • sulphur
  • rhus rox
  • graphites

That sounds interesting. Both of my DC have exzema. I'm always on the hunt for a good product. Thanks for sharing!
