5.0 out of 5 stars Natural Alternative to Cortisone
Buying one tube of Florasone Topical Cream has been almost emotionally healing and enlightening. I have never seen my skin heal so fast. I was noticing limited results from using a cortisone treatment and had started to worry about the long-term effects of using cortisone which can weaken skin and encourages wrinkles.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dissappointed
I bought this in hopes that it would help relieve the itch associated with PUPPS, but it didn't give me much relief, not even temporarily. Moreover, I didn't like the smell of the product. I haven't used this product to treat other type of rashes or itch so I don't know how effective it is - it just didn't work for me. Plus, it took a long time for this product to be...

5.0 out of 5 stars Natural Alternative to Cortisone, June 16, 2004
Buying one tube of Florasone Topical Cream has been almost emotionally healing and enlightening. I have never seen my skin heal so fast. I was noticing limited results from using a cortisone treatment and had started to worry about the long-term effects of using cortisone which can weaken skin and encourages wrinkles.

If you have allergies, inflammation, rashes, itching or eczema, this is a product you will really love. Not only can you use it for long-term treatment it works super fast. This product works in hours, not weeks.

Fast Acting
Non-Greasy
No Animal Testing
No Animal by-products

Other helpful tips for clearing up skin problems:

1. Mix aloe juice with a packet of Emer'gen-C Lite Drink Mix (any variety but not the high-fructose blends) and fresh-squeezed fruit juices. Drink once a day. Emer'gen-C has Vitamin C and lots of it.

2. Take Sulphur 6X (Homeopathic Medicine) - even 3 tablets a day seems to really help with relief from itching and skin rashes. (Also try eliminating nuts and peanut butter for a bit and see if that helps. Soynut Butter doesn't seem to cause skin reactions. Also look for chocolate and products without sugar and palm oils. Hershey's has a new low-carb option.)

3. Take 2 capsules of OREGAMAX. - very cleansing. This is the original "hyssop" from ancient times. The "powder" not the oil. The oil is very strong. Olive Leaf is also another good remedy and the Greeks used to use the leaves of the olive tree for cleaning wounds.

4. I've also seen results from taking 1 capsule of ZAND Cascara sagrada, 1 capsule of Thistle Liver Support and Psyllium Seed and Husk Fiber. This cleanses your body and if you have any skin problems, it can really your skin. Getting rid of toxins in your body is
the main point.

5. Derma-E Skin products - The Microdremabrasion scrub preps the skin and then you can apply Tea Tree & E Antiseptic Crème, the Florasone Creame and a product called Derma-E Astazanthin and Pycnogenol. Pycnogenol reduces inflammation.

6. Drink a lot of water and eat more fruits and veg. I've noticed that if I slack off in the area of diet and exercise, I have to deal with more skin problems.

7. Take a Yoga class to reduce stress. Do you notice flare-ups when you are extremely stressed?

8. Switch from "sugar" to something like NuNaturals SoooLite No Carbs Blend for tea, etc. Read "The Metabolic Plan."

You might also enjoy reading: "The Allergy Exclusion Diet" by Jill Carter and Alison Edwards. If you are allergic to nuts like cashew, you might also have reactions
when eating mangoes. Who knew!

Onward to read: The Acne Prescription by Nicholas Perricone. This book has information on how blood sugar affects inflammation. It is interesting because when I cut sugar out of my diet, I have noticed my skin clears up in days. I also noticed that a low-carb Hershey's chocolate bar with soy nuts had no effect on my skin. SO, maybe it is really the "sugar" and not the chocolate.

If you are also trying to figure out why your skin reacts to various environments and foods then at least you can get some immediate relief from this Florasone cream.

Staying alive is sure work! You have to read a LOT of books.

4.0 out of 5 stars B&T Florasone Cardiospermum Topical Cream, November 7, 2004
The Natural Alternative to Cortisone offering fast relief for itches and rashes from eczema and allergies, but the scent takes some getting used to!

Besides the strange odor of this topical cream it is not the usual texture or shade. Instead this is a yellowish color that has a smooth feel to it and once applied vanishes into your skin without a trace. There is no thick or dry feeling after this has been rubbed on my face, but the scent is not very pleasant, so use caution when in public.

At times when my face has been inflammed all creams will burn and then when you have rubbed it in you itch and start the whole process again. This has not happened once I have applied the B&T Florasone Maximum Strength Cardiospermum Cream.

Due to the expense of the B&T Florasone Maximum Strength Cardiospermum Cream I use it sparingly and would purchase again when my current tube runs out. I raved about this to the Pharmacist and said to tell other patients and customers about this alternative to the cortisone creams. Not only does this work for us eczema folks, it is also intended for rashes that are associated with detergents, cosmetics, jewelry and soaps.

At the first sign of itch, rash or inflammation a small dot rubbed onto the area will offer relief. This is not as soothing as the cortisone creams but over time this works better and more naturally. As mentioned earlier it absorbs quickly into the skin and I have worn it over makeup and under as well with no problems. There are no animal by-products to worry about plus they do not test on animals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing for Chicken Pox, November 19, 2010
By 
This review is from: Boericke & Tafel - Florasone Cream, 1 oz cream (Misc.)
I bought Florasone after trying many, many other creams and ointments. Our infant had the chicken pox and was feeling miserable, especially in the sensitive diaper area. This was the ONLY thing that provided relief and allowed her to sleep. Oatmeal baths, that pink stuff, various other creams and natural remedies, nothing else seemed to help. I cannot tell you how awesome this stuff is!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product!, December 2, 2010
This review is from: Boericke & Tafel - Florasone Cream, 1 oz cream (Misc.)
I bought this product for my 1 yr old son, who developed a rash from a tag-less Gerber shirt. In just two days, his skin is already healing and is smooth again. I tried Cortisone for one day and it made his rash worse. I paid $9.49 for the same product at the vitamin shoppe, so $6.68 is a great price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, actually, January 1, 2012

J. Hall-Fuller (New Hampshire, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Boericke & Tafel - Florasone Cream, 1 oz cream (Misc.)
I tried this for external irritation subsequent to yeast infection. I was desperate. I have a very inflammatory system, and the usual yeast treatments are torture for my skin. Cortisone creams cause more pain. The only thing that I could tolerate was a petroleum jelly preparation of cortisone. The Florasone caused a slight hot irritated sensation for a couple of seconds when first applied, but then came the relief! Thanks heavens!! And it did not leave a greasy film like the jelly.

I have also used it on bug bites, and the itch disappears. A tiny bit goes a long way. It dries clear and non-sticky. If I ever get poison ivy again, this will be the first thing I try. I keep it on hand at all times.

The package insert shows scientific data on how effective it is on psoriasis.

If you can't wait for delivery by amazon, look for it at a health food store or co-op.
