FAQs
Is Eczema Friend steriod-free?
Yes, Eczema Friend is 100% steroid-free. It does not contain any medical drugs. Eczema Friend contains provitamin B5 and natural oils to soothe skin.
What ingredients should I avoid in eczema creams?
Avoid essential oils, fragrance, olive oil, parabens, PFAS and benzoates. Also avoid food-based ingredients commonly used in beauty products, including goat's milk, avena sativa (oat), coconut oil and almond oil – because they may increase the risk of developing food allergies (ref #1).
What's the difference between eczema creams and moisturisers?
Moisturisers prevent skin dryness by providing hydration and sealing in moisture. Eczema creams go further: they're usually formulated with active ingredients that may provide eczema relief. At Skin Friend, we combine both benefits in one: Eczema Friend helps to enhance skin hydration plus it contains a scientifically-proven active ingredient to relieve symptoms of mild eczema, dermatitis and itchy skin.
Will this cream stain my clothes or smell bad, like other eczema creams?
No. Eczema Friend does not stain clothes or sheets or smell bad. Eczema Friend is completely scent-free and invisible on your skin. You'll love it and no one will know you are wearing it.
Why is Eczema Friend PFAS-free? Is this important?
PFAS are synthetic "forever chemicals" found in waterproof clothing, waterproof cosmetics and can be hidden in skincare by accidental contamination, and they're especially concerning for babies and children with sensitive or eczema-prone skin. Research suggests certain PFAS exposures may be associated with childhood eczema and other allergic conditions (Luo, 2020), which is why avoiding them matters when skin is sensitive. That's why Eczema Friend is independently tested and certified PFAS-free — so you can reduce unnecessary chemical exposure and feel confident you're choosing a safer, gentler option for you or your child's skin. See our PFAS blog here.
Is this cream safe for daily use, and can I use it on my face or around my eyes?
Yes, Eczema Friend is safe for daily use, especially on your face and around your eyes, because it's formulated with gentle ingredients and tested on sensitive skin.
Is this cream safe for babies or during pregnancy?
Yes, Eczema Friend is safe to use on babies and during pregnancy, because it is carefully formulated. It's free of PFAS, parabens, sulphites, nut oils and fragrance (parfum), making it a suitable choice for all ages and skin types.

Eczema Friend was featured on 9 News Australia as part of a news story on Karen Fischer's new research linking food chemicals and eczema.
This cream has totally taken away my eczema itch! Even during a very harsh and cold winter, which usually worsens my symptoms, it has kept my legs and face protected and itch free. It’s been a huge relief. I’m very grateful.
Eczema Friend is exactly what I need to soothe my skin. All the itchiness/prickly-ness goes away. I like how light it feels when I apply it. Sometimes I use it on my face as well.
Love this cream, calms down my flared skin. Applying morning and night and it seems to be working… now I don’t scratch all day!
I have eczema on my eyelids which became very sore, red and with flaky, dry skin. Eczema Friend is the only therapy that has been able to provide me with longer-term relief.
