Thanks OP

For others, just be aware that aqueous cream is bad for the skin.

Here you will see a study quoted from the Uni of Bath - comparing the skin ‘treated’ with aqueous cream to adjacent ‘untreated’ skin.

Overall the areas that had been ‘treated’ were 12% thinner than the untreated areas. There was also an average 20% increase in water loss through the thinner ‘treated’ areas.

Hope this helps when choosing what skincare products to buy.

It is designed to be used as soap, rather than a moisturiser.

Its bad for the skin if you have eczema.

I am sure it is, but the study I quoted was on normal skin.

"... volunteers who do not have eczema applied aqueous cream to their arm twice a day, leaving it on for 10 minutes, for 4 weeks. "
