Comment:
I had complained to my Derm. about dryness from rosacea meds. (mostly on my nose) She gave me a few samples and I was so happy. It stopped the peeling and I could wear makeup without it looking so ugly and dry. My nose was always peeling for years no matter what lotion I tried. I Love this!

Comment:
I am writing this on behalf of my 2 year old son who has pretty bad eczema, especially his face. Our pediatrician prescribed EpiCeram and told us that it works as well as a steroid but without the side effects since it is not a steroid. This product has been a lifesaver. We use it twice a day on his flare areas and follow with Cera Ve lotion all over the body. EpiCeram seems to be more concentrate
