My eldest daughter has eczema. It doesn't bother her that often anymore - I use senstive soaps in her bath and put lotion on her every night. However, I have noticed that there are a couple of spots on her face, where she did have small patches previously, that are now a lot lighter in colour than the rest of her skin.

Do you know of anything I can use on her to even her skin tone to get rid of these lighter spots? Or will they even out on their own over time?

they will indeed fade on thier own unless these are her "hot spots" In this case, her flare ups will continue to cuase discoloration in those areas.
i have found natural shea butter (melted down in hte microwave) to be a good skin conditioner! also, if you can beleive it, Selson Blue, (dandruff shampoo) works on flare ups of ecema.

Also, she may need to see a dermatologist! i would not use Ambi or any other "toner" on a child (which is what ppl uae to even these spots)

Good luck, Excema is hard to deal with

Thanks for the info - I will buy some shea butter tonight.

And thanks for the tip on Selson blue for excema flare-ups! I will try that. She doesn't have it really bad - I remember seeing a young girl ages ago that had scratched it so much it had scabbed over! She doesn't seem to get that much itch with it - thank goodness!

Redness, Pain, Sewlling, Discarge, Hot or Fever are signs of infection. Use some Hydrogen Peroxide and clean the wound site then put a triple Antibiotic like Neosporin on it. If you see pus then you may need a stronger Antibiotic.

Cetaphil (cream in cold dry months, lotion in warm humid months) works so good.
I always reccomend it for eczema and dry skin.

I am more of a natural girl...like using butters (shea, cocoa, mango, almond) but those didn't work for my skin....reluctantly tried Cetaphil and will never turn back.

U can get it at any drug store, Walmart etc...about $12 US but so worth it.
