 Topic: bubble bath for eczema

Anyone found any good soap free bubble baths that dont flare up the skin? Now that DS is finally over his fear of bubbles Id love to let him have a play in the bath

YES.....
My Dad went to give me this stuff tonight. It's emulsifing something a rather than you get in big tubs like aqueous cream that you get on prescription. It frothed up a little bit under the tap & when they put on the spa bath the kids were covered & there were heaps of bubbles...bonus no soap scum!
I'll get the tub tomorrow & try & remember to post it's name.

is that the emulsifying ointment AandCsmum? We use that aswell and it does bubble up a bit under the tap when I run the bath for my two but now i'm feeling a bit jealous we dont have a spa bath to make more for them lol

My sister had eczema quite badly and used to bathe in this emulsifying stuff - it was yellow from what I recall, not sure if that helps or not!

When I was at the P&C show, the lady at the Ecostore stand gave me some sachets of their bubble bath, and have only tried twice but didn't notice it flaring up of DD's eczema.

I was just going to say not the Ecostore bubble bath. I used this for DD and while she was fine it gave me shocking eczema on my hands. All their other stuff is fine but something with that just disagrees with my skin I guess (which is a shame because the smell is devine)

Hve you tried the Made4Baby bubble bath? Super bubbly, fragrance free & doesn't seem to affect my kids skin like other ones do.

We use emulsifying ointment in bath too - free on prescription. I put it in tea strainer and run water through and water goes frothy. Not as bubbly as bubbles, but way better for eczema skin in our house.

I recommend Made4Baby as well. DD gets bad nappy rash and I get the worst dermatitis on my hands (some brands of soap make my hands sting when it has flared up) and neither of us has had any problems with either their fragrance free (recommend you try this one first) or the Citrus one.
If you want to try their other products too (moisturizer, masage oil, body/hair foam) they do sell a small pack of the 4 so you won't have lots of unused stuff if it isn't good for the excema
