Review: Helpful for rashes, bug bites, and other things. Great quality & efficiency. - I recently had a flare up of some eczema on my hand, as well as a mild rash (presumably from heat). I went to my medicine cabinet, and realized I was low on my usual cream. I ordered this desertcart Basic Care Maximum Strength Hydrocortisone (1%) Anti-Itch cream, and am so glad I did! This cream has a nice texture to it; it feels moisturizing and soothing to my skin, whilst helping itchiness quickly. This cream is very mild, as well as gentle on my skin; it has a slight cooling and comforting feeling (which is also helpful). There's no stinging or unpleasant feeling, and it doesn't feel greasy either. I've found that a little bit of this cream goes a long way, so I feel the quality and longevity is very good. This is a great product to have on hand; whether in a medicine cabinet, first aid kit, or for on-the-go purposes. I think this is a good value for the size and price, and would definitely recommend this! Works very well, and contains enough in the tube to last me a while. Very pleased with this cream.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for eczema
*by A***R on January 28, 2026*

My pediatrician recommended it for my 4 1/2 month olds eczema and has worked perfectly. His face is now clear soft and the redness has calmed down any new parents just get it. It’s worth it.
