AproDermColloidal Oat Cream - 500ml pump - Paraffin Free Cream - Suitable for dry skin, eczema and psoriasis …

A very good lotion style cream.It's in a pump bottle . I have dry eczema prone skin and I get itchy patches of stress eczema. It's quite hard to manage. I tried coconut oil for a year but it is comodegenic. I found I was getting build up and hard little dry lumps.This cream is much betterEase of useThe pump worked fine. The cream comes out well and can then be applied. It rubs in easily and is non greasy.The productThe cream has a very slight lotiony smell , but no perfume. I put it in everywhere including my face.No stinging. Felt smooth and moisturising.Immediately moisturised.I have been using this for over a week. Occasionally I use Argan oil mixed in .It's very good and I prefer it to the other oat based cream.I'm going to try it instead of soap too.PS. If you have trouble with pump bottles you can find out how to un jam them on YouTube.

One of the many symptoms I've experienced throughout my menopause is a maddening terribly dry, itchy skin. My Doctor gave me a steroid cream which I really didn't like taking. I ordered this cream after seeing it was collodial oats (Aveeno is similar, this is better and cheaper!)After a luke warm bath I slather this lovely thick cream on. It absorbs easily and seems to stay cool while you rub it into your skin. I have already decided this is my new favourite body cream and the price is fantastic. Great value for money for a pump. I have one in my bathroom and am going to buy another to keep at my partners.Would highly recommend this lovely cream and it's so gentle, I can even put it on my face and I never put anything that is even slightly perfumed or coloured on my face. This cream has a very light, oaty fragrance which is lovely and does not irritate my skin at all.I have very sensitive skin and have found this lovely cream does not irritate my skin at all. Have used it on childrens skin also and again, no irritation, reaction or rashes.All in all, a fabulous cream. Great value for money, super absorbant, great smell and thickness and extra soothing and gentle for itchy, sensitive skin.

This oat colloidal cream is one of the best I’ve tried. It’s cooling, comforting and helps itching. I like that it’s fragrance free apart from the slight oat scent. It is paraben free which is great. It is easy to apply and I highly recommend this to anyone who has sensitive skin/ or a skin condition .

Bought this trying to replace Diprobase as that old, tried and tested, reliable formula has been tampered with by its makers and is now a torture device for eczema sufferers.Aproderm cream is OK. It doesn’t itch and sting like the “for itchy skin” formulas of the new Diprobase and E45. I have eczema and the devil’s own post-chemo / radiotherapy itching. It soothes this but only for a short time.It seems to melt into a liquid much more that the more chemical based creams. The more liquified it becomes, the less effective it is. The creamier a product is, the better it works on my skin.The worst thing about the cream is the smell. At best, it smells like you’ve left rolled oats in a jar on a shelf in full sun for a long time. At worst, it smells like an old unwashed goat that’s been left in full sun for a long time.For the smell alone, I shall be looking for another product. I won’t buy it again unless I’m desperate and don’t plan to go out in public. Even my mother’s Chanel No 5 doesn’t mask the homely, goaty smell.

Dispenses well, absorbs quickly.Cools my skin quickly, and moisturises well.No strong smell from product that I can detect.Doesn't leave greasy residue

Omg absolutely brilliant, I could cry. Like another reviewer I'd had a ppd reaction and a puce face which I slapped sudocrem on which worked. Two weeks later I tried 100% natural Henna and Indigo. This time horrendous rash on face and neck, managed to convince pharmacist to give me steroid cream 1% for a week. Rash itching red, chlorphenamine to get rash down. Still no joy. Cerave suggested by pharmacist still raw. So I looked online and was going for Diprobase which my child had as a baby for excema. Then I saw this...within a day the itching had stopped, rash toned down. It's expensive but actually don't forget a normal face cream is in a 50ml tube so actually cheaper. I use on my face and neck and arms. Obviously no SPF in it but I can't risk a reaction so just stay out of sun or use hat. It's a lotion so you don't need much. Nothing to react to. It also says may sting on it..it didn't sting at all for me on a huge rash that was giving me needling prickly pain. You have nothing to lose by trying this. Read the description but it's free from basically everything. Another cheaper tip: grind up oats porridge and put water with them and create face mask, similar calming properties. Put whole oats in an old clean pop sock and tie a knot it and put under running tap in bath, the milky water will sooth. Basically this cream is a more convenient form of oats. No paraffin in it which can be flammable on skin. I recommend this. Let me know if you found helpful, I can't bear to think of other people suffering as well so if this helps anyone else, I'll be happy. Brilliant product.
