This product is surprisingly effect. I started to get a small patch of eczema that has been progressing for weeks. I bought Aveeno anti-itch cream two days ago and now the eczema has almost completely cleared up. I would highly recommend this product for eczema outbreaks.

The cream is clean and the consistences of the cream was smooth. Absorbs into the skin well, Odor free, very reliving, and the tubes are in a travel friendly size!

My sensitive skin itches annoyingly every now and then. I have tried so many things, but nothing works as well as this Aveeno product! Love the long lasting rellief it gives me . . . Aveeno products seem to be made for my skin . . . and my husband's. We are long time fans of your hand lotion. Long lasting results from both of your products.
Thank you.

My baby has eczema and this works better than the prescription from the doctor. We just keep buying this stuff because it works so great.

Aveeno makes a good product, but this cream is really good but it does not seem to stop the itching. It stops the inflammation, redness and minor pain,but seems to fall a bit short on the itching. The good points is that it is non greasy and gets absorbed in the skin right away and doesn't stain clothing. This product is good for minor skin discomforts and not for something a bit more intense.

I got eaten alive by bugs this summer while camping and I was hoping this would help. It did make the redness and inflammation dissipate but I still felt all itchy after application. I was expecting more instant relief for the price. Aloe seems to work better for me.

I'm not saying that this stuff doesn't work for anything at all but I'm writing a review for my particular skin issue so for that I give it 1 star. Would give it 0 if I could. I went to wal-mart's drug section with some kind of rash on my hands,( it was mostly on my left hand and it was little tiny clear bumps with like a clear fluid in them, hard and painful to pop because the skin above them was so thick, they itched a little, not furiously but enough and were unattractive enough on my hands to go get some help for them) and asked a pharmacist there what she recommended for the rash that I could get without a prescription. She told me about hydrocoritsone cream and told me which isle I could find it in. I went and saw probably at least 5 different brands for the stuff. Aveno (like with nearly all of their products) happened to be the most expensive so being the "It must work better if it cost more" person I am, I purchased it. I put the stuff on every-time after washing my hands for 5 days and no results. It didn't even stop the itching. Went back to wal-mart, and didn't quit and purchased hydrocortisone cream with the same 1% in it but in the equate walmart brand for about half the price this stuff cost me, put the stuff on, and within 24 hours the rash was nearly gone and no more itching! I'm now a life-time believer of Hydrocortisone cream and will always have it around but certainly not in THIS brand. Aveno has some great products but for my particular problem this isn't one of them. By the way. Hydrocorotone cream also works great for mosquito bites (probably other insect bites as well), allergic reactions (Like a new soap you just started trying that you have a reaction to) and much more.
