She explained that this is a necessary and 'completely normal behaviour' for her as an eczema sufferer. Elise elaborated on the purpose of her frequent cream applications, stating, 'Smothering my eczema in emollient ointment like Hydromol not only helps to make my dry eczema skin feel more comfortable but also prevents transepidermal water loss and protects my skin barrier.' She highlighted the continuous nature of her treatment, mentioning that she reapplies the cream every hour or two as it absorbs into her skin. Her honest portrayal offers a glimpse into the challenges and dedication required to manage chronic skin conditions, resonating with many in the eczema community.
