What is Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Body Wash?
Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Body Wash is a wash that is designed to help cleanse the skin without drying it out, which is the case with many soaps. This body wash is formulated with Colloidal Oatmeal and Ceramides, which help to soothe and moisturise the skin. This body wash is ideal for anyone who is suffering from the effects of eczema. Aveeno Dermexa Body Wash is soap-free, unscented, and free from parabens.
What causes eczema?
Eczema is as a result of the skin lacking moisture because it cannot keep moisture retained within it. The reason why someone may suffer from eczema is most likely to be hereditary. If someone’s parents or siblings suffer from eczema, then the chances of them suffering from the condition are much more likely. Eczema is triggered by a number of different things, including:
- Irritants – these include certain types of soaps such as soaps, shampoo, and washing up liquid
- The environment – cold weather, dry weather, and also allergens can contribute to the effects of eczema
- Certain foods – including milk, eggs, peanuts, soya and wheat
- Clothing such as wool and synthetic materials
- Hormonal changes – women, in particular, may suffer from the effects of eczema during their period or when pregnant
- Skin infections can also make eczema worse
Stress can also increase the chances of eczema appearing. There is no known cure for eradicating eczema completely, only treatments for reducing its effects.
Who is this body wash suitable for?
This Aveeno body wash is suitable for those who suffer from dry skin and need a body wash that doesn’t dry out the skin further. It can be used by the whole family. This body wash should not be used by anyone who is allergic to the ingredients contained in the body wash.
Can someone who is pregnant or breastfeeding use this Aveeno Body Wash?
There is no reason why someone who is pregnant or breastfeeding cannot use this body wash, as there is no known evidence of any negative effects. However, if you are unsure as to whether you should use this cream, speak to a doctor or midwife before using.
How should Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Body Wash be used?
This body wash should be used daily to help maintain moisture in the skin and protect against further dryness. For the best results, use in conjunction with the Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Cream.
