There’s a few different reasons why your eczema might be flaking, and it can be good news or bad news. One thing to remember, regardless of whether the peeling is a good sign or a bad sign, is to avoid scratching. It’s tempting to rub that itch away!

One also can’t “just” get over it as if it’s a temporary scratch. It’s often an ongoing part of life and one that vastly affects your mood. We understand how frustrating it is that the exact cause of eczema is unknown. Knowing that immune function, genetics, and lifestyle all play a part is helpful but also leaves unanswered questions.

Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, can progress from itchy to sore, and from sore to infected. If the skin tore from scratching with fingernails, rubbing against rough-textured fabrics, or unintentional bumps against everyday objects, then viruses, bacteria, or fungi may enter the skin. If your eczema exhibits any of the following signs, get a fast diagnosis and proper treatment to prevent the problem from intensifying.

Instead, think of a trigger checklist as a tool. Hopping on a flight? House undergoing renovations? Any or all of these scenarios can present factors that trigger a nasty flare-up. Having the ability to prepare for these scenarios can help with managing eczema—and being prepared can help you get faster relief.

Sleep is the oldest beauty secret known to humankind. But when you can’t sleep because your skin is acting up, one of your body’s primary restorative functions is disrupted. This bad spiral can lead to frustration and stress, which also contribute negatively to your skin.

Although psoriasis and eczema—also called atopic dermatitis—can have similar symptoms, they are completely different skin conditions. Ultimately, a dermatologist is the final authority on what your skin condition is. 

If you are managing eczema symptoms, take note. Research studies show that swimming pools have a positive effect on some eczema-prone skin types, offering relief similar to a bleach bath treatment.

Here at Sade Baron, we’ve been working on creating products that bring relief to chronic skin conditions, including psoriasis. To do this, we needed to understand psoriasis, who it affects, and how it feels.
