Hc45: Hydrocortisone Acetate Cream

I have super bad eczema.

Nothing compared to when I was a kid and was literally covered in it head to toe. But it does like to come back with avengence every now and again. There is no warning it just happens. I know I'm allergic to most washing powders, bubble baths, shower gels etc. but even when I'm not in contact with them I'll get it. The doctors thought it might have been dietary, but even after cutting out food groups I still had it. I got diagnosed with stress at 15 and they think that might trigger it as well.

.

It doesn't help I work with my hands a lot; barista/ bartender/ waitress I do a lot of cleaning, my hands get dirty a lot and they never get a rest.

Hc45 is my saviour. Not only is my eczema unsightly, most the time it looks like my hand is slightly decaying but it hurts. A lot. If I don't put a strong motisturiser on before I go to bed I will wake up with a claw and which kills to open as all the skin has to re-crack and split. Not fun.

Hc45 has to be bought at a pharmacy as it's one of those behind the counter medicines. I'm not sure why, I think it might be because hydrocortisone contains/is a steroid and it is a controlled substance.

It is literally a miracle cream. Within 4-5 days it will completely clear up even the worse case of my eczema. If I just have a little bit of dry skin somewhere I will put some on in the morning and by the evening it would have gone.

It comes in a 15g tube and I find that to get rid of my eczema I will barely use a 1/5 of the tube. So after that I tend to just use it as a hand cream and my work takes a lot out of they and it keeps them super soft.

This is defiantly a must for anyone who get dry and cracked skin. And that is everything I have bought today, apart from some pains au chocolat for breakfast and some cheesy chips for lunch. Total spend: 18.19 New points balance of Superdrug Caed: 708
