Benefits Of Body Butter For Eczema

Updated: Jun 12, 2023

As a natural treatment for eczema, SHEABINTA body butter can be an excellent choice. For one, shea butter is said to absorb quickly into the skin while keeping the area hydrated. This is because it hydrates the deeper layers of the skin while acting as a protective layer on the surface. Some people who have eczema experience swelling, which shea butter is believed to alleviate.


Shea butter can be applied as a moisturizer right after a bath or shower or throughout the day during extreme periods of dryness.


Every body butter also includes coconut oil which can help reduce flare ups. Jeremy Fenton, MD, Medical Director for Schweiger Dermatology Group in New York City, supported a study published in December 2009 in Pharmaceutical Biology and stated, "there is some evidence to suggest that coconut oil contains additional components that can help calm the skin with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory characteristics." This is due to the fact that natural oils have been known to have stress-relieving and anti-inflammatory characteristics, which may bring relief to many people.


Finally, various essential oils have been proven to help with eczema flare-ups, one of them being eucalyptus oil. This is thanks to its anti-inflammatory effects.




Note: always conduct a patch test before using skincare products, especially if you have a skin condition.
