Cracked, Painful & Itchy Skin
Cracked, itchy skin can make everyday life uncomfortable. Whether it's sore hands that make simple tasks painful or dry patches on your arms and legs that leave you feeling self-conscious, constant itching and cracking can affect both your comfort and confidence.
These symptoms are common in people living with eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis and can occur anywhere on the body.
Rosie found the best results for cracked, itchy skin came from applying 1 teaspoon of cream to each area 3-4 times a day, particularly after washing and before bed.
For moderate to severe dryness apply 1-2 heaped tea spoons to ensure the skin is well moisturised.
Rosie's Experience
"Some mornings my hands were so cracked and sore that even turning a door handle hurt. I learned that keeping my skin well moisturised throughout the day, especially after washing my hands, made all the difference."
Rosie's Gentle Guidance
Alongside regular moisturising, Rosie found that reducing everyday irritants helped keep her skin more comfortable.
-
Choose eco-friendly, fragrance-free laundry detergents where possible.
-
Wear soft cotton clothing instead of rough or synthetic fabrics.
-
Use gentle, fragrance-free soaps, shampoos and shower products.
-
Wear gloves when using household cleaning products and consider gentler, eco-friendly cleaners.
-
Avoid perfumes directly on sore or cracked skin until it has settled.
Small changes can make a big difference when caring for sensitive skin.
