Happy Little Bodies for young skin suffering from Eczema

10/13/2016

Eczema is a recurring, non-infectious, inflammatory skin condition affecting one in five Canadians at some stage in their lives.  Sufferers of eczema know all too well the struggle it can cause, and many parents struggle to find relief for their children with eczema. It may arise as a mild itch or it may be seen as oozing blisters, but no matter the severity, it’s a pain to experience.

In short, eczema is a skin reaction – similar to an allergy – that leads to redness, swelling, itching and/or dry skin. What’s worse is that it’s often paired with increased sensitivity. As a result, many products that may have offered skin relief will only further the irritation.

Flexitol has developed an alternative (non steroidal) yet clinically proven, safer treatment range of eczema products called Happy Little Bodies for young skin suffering from Eczema.

Happy Little Bodies products are fortified with traditional herbs that have been used for centuries in the management of eczema. Each formula is all natural to avoid irritation and still provides healing relief for mild to moderate eczema by soothing and moisturizing dry, inflamed skin. Each is free of parabens, cortisone, steroids, coal tar, pine tar, nut oils and SLS.

The Happy Little Bodies new range addresses various stages of eczema management. For example, Happy Little Bodies Eczema Relief Cream is an important product in the regimen when a flare-up occurs. The ingredients that are found in it include colloidal oatmeal, aloe vera, peppermint oil and calendula tincture.

• Colloidal Oatmeal was traditionally used in herbal medicine to assist in the relief of minor inflammations of the skin and minor dry itchy skin conditions

• Aloe Vera which is known for its natural healing properties. Studies show that topical aloe gel helps heal minor burns and abrasions and decrease the severity of skin irritation

• Peppermint oil has cooling and anti-itching properties.

• Calendula tincture helps to relieve minor skin irritation and inflammation such as rash

Use of appropriate emollients is a key part of eczema management. Happy Little Bodies has developed three products for eczema management needs including a relief cream for flare-ups, a daily moisturizer, and a wash/shampoo for bath time. Each designed to help soften the texture of skin and relieve severe itching due to excessive dryness.
