Hey, Guys, it’s Emily here from MiaThrives!

Today I’m going to talk about Aquaphor, a product I started using fairly recently. I got it through Debra Canada they sent out some EB care packages. This was one of the products and I absolutely love it.

Aquaphor Multipurpose Healing Ointment

I highly recommend this, especially for the wintertime. Over the winter my skin gets especially dry as well as having EB I also have eczema. A lot of eczema treatments have a mild steroid in it, and my dermatologists have advised me against using that because steroids thin out the skin. Since EB skin is already so thin, it’s generally a treatment that you’re not able to use. Aquaphor has been extremely beneficial for my EB and eczema in the winter.

Positive Points To Note From Use:

• For extremely dry skin
• For lips, hands, feet and knees (But able to use it almost all over the body)
• Doesn’t burn when it gets in cuts
• Moisturizing
• No steroid in it
• Good for the winter

You can find Aquaphor here on amazon.
