I’m using a dermeze cream that I can only find through Priceline.
Been looking for a cream that is oily enough to be nice and long lasting but not to the point of the ointment from dermeze
Aveeno has some long lasting ones that don't have the greasy factor that dermeze has.
I’ll keep an eye out. Buying all these creams are expensive :(
Woolies and Coles have them half price periodically.
Yeah it’s weird. The Cerave lotion is very hydrating but thin and doesn’t last, the tube is kind of a dry thick barrier cream that isn’t really emollient. I’ve been avoiding the tub because of niacinimide but now I see there’s a tub without that - so I may try it and keep you posted.
If body lotion is acceptable for face I’ve been using Vaseline Dry Skin Rescue lotion which has the Eczema Association logo. It isn’t highly hydrating and can sting if your face is irritated from the shower but it’s nicely moisturising without being a thick ointment
