Although some people with eczema are allergic to house dust mites, trying to rid your home of them is not recommended as it can be difficult and there's no clear evidence that it helps.

Hydrating gels are formed, scientifically speaking, from molecules that make a three-dimensional network, which then traps other molecules in the spaces of the network. They are relatively light and non-greasy, despite having a reasonably high oil content.

Review of new evidence If you have mild eczema, talk to a pharmacist for advice on emollients. If you have moderate or severe eczema, talk to a GP. Choosing an emollient Occasionally, your doctor may suggest using a topical corticosteroid less frequently, but over a longer period of time. This is designed to help prevent flare-ups.

Unless instructed otherwise by a doctor, follow the directions on the patient information leaflet that comes with your medicine.Remember to use a spoon to decant emollient from any tubs you may be using. If you dip your fingers into a tub, it can easily become contaminated with bacteria. A metal dessert spoon is good for decanting emollient and washes well under the tap. If you’re using pump handle dispensers for your emollients, you don’t need to decant – you can just pump the emollient onto your hand (avoid touching the nozzle). You may need to gradually reduce the amount you use and how often you use it before stopping completely. This reduces the chance of symptoms returning, or causing a reaction if you stop your treatment suddenly. Emollients are available in different formulations: lotions, creams, gels, sprays and ointments. They are all applied directly to the skin. Change and wash your clothes and bedding frequently to reduce the build-up of skin cream. However, remember that whilst washing your clothing and bedding even at high temperatures might reduce the build-up, it does not remove it completely and the danger may remain.
