    "It is one of the most recommended over-the-counter eczema products in the country, and it truly earned its spot. You get 1% colloidal oatmeal for the itch, and it's backed by ceramides to help rebuild the barrier, in a completely steroid-free cream that's gentle enough for daily, long-term use. It also carries the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance. Used consistently, it keeps the skin calm, so you flare less often."

    "Two bits free of fragrance, it's got colloidal oats which are hydrating, soothing and help protect my already impaired skin barrier, this is fantastic. It's rich, it's thick, glides on the skin without feeling greasy, oily or heavy, and I successfully am able to use this on my face around my eyes. It's wonderful, really really great. My main complaint is the bottle."

    "Dance on over to the baby section at Walgreens, they have their baby eczema version of Aveeno Eczema Therapy. The Aveeno one at least is really good. This is great if you've got sensitive, irritated skin and everything burns and stings. Colloidal oatmeal based moisturizer, they tend to be very soothing, anti-inflammatory, helpful for skin barrier recovery."

    "Aveeno Eczema Therapy, I love this product. It is approved by the national eczema association. It is loaded in colloidal oatmeal which is derived from oatmeal ground into a very very thin powder. You can take colloidal oatmeal baths. Colloidal oatmeal has been proven to really help your skin to the point where in 2003 the FDA classified it as a skin protectant."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Ceramides

    Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

    Humectants and emollients

    Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
