I literally wouldn’t survive in UK weather if it weren’t for this. Much better than all the emollients the GP would prescribe me (looking at you, e45). Just make sure not to use too much or you’ll end up with sticky skin.
i had these really aggressive hives/rashes that would cover my whole body (looks a lot like psoriasis but the drs are no help) tried all your standard brands like e45, oilatum, etc aswell as a collection of prescribed steroid creams. This lotion is the only thing that’s ever helped my skin stop breaking out into these insane rashes that I get in the summer & spring because it’s fragrance free and Show more

This product saved me from hives itching. Whenever I see a potential spot growing, I will apply this cream and it will immediately calm down the rash. Super effective. However, it has a very strong minty smell when you first apply and will feel a very cooling sensation. The strong smell goes away after a few mins.
