DermaVeen Sensitive Relief Eczema Cream 100gm

Very effective for a small eczema flare up. Eczema is all but gone in 4-5 days. The cream is fragrance free and wasn't irritating to the affected skin. A little goes a long way, so I expect to have this tube for a long time. Purchased from ufs chemist, but widely available. Show details

AVOID!!!! – Put this on and within a few mins could feel my skin warming up. After 15mins was getting pretty hot. Went to the bathroom mirror and I had extreme rash all over my face and a pure red chin. I also tried this product 2-3 months ago and it done the exact same thing. I washed it straight off with cold water for 5 mins. Then applied Dermaveen lotion which doesn't cause this reaction. Show details

Avoid! – In a few minutes the first application to my face resulted in angry redness and itching. An hour later my face looked like a dry, cracked desert. The experience was very upsetting. Show details

good for allergy reaction to native plants – I had a burning allergic reaction to brushing against native plants and this provided relief instantly. After one day of using it several times, the itchiness and redness has gone. changed this from 5 to 4 stars because Dermal Anti-itch soothing cream is better. Show details

Really helps my dry skin and eczema – One of the best creams I've found for dry skin and ezcema on my hands. It really helps especially if you live and work in environments with heaters or air conditioners which dry out the skin. Show details

I am so grateful I bought this cream – I purchased this cream because I had never tried it before and my dermatitis was so itchy and irritated. I had been taking antihistamines daily for over a week and was using every eczema/dermatitis product I had at home for some relief. Nothing was helping and I felt like clawing my skin off. Then I used Dermaveen’s Eczema Cream and I haven’t… Read more

looked back. It is really soothing and so very moisturising. My rash is no longer irritated or itchy and my legs have not felt this soft ever! When my rash has finally completely gone, I will continue to use this cream to keep the skin on my legs hydrated.

I really love this cream! And it’s very reasoably priced so that’s another positive!!!

Terrible! Have to wipe off after applying – My daughter suffers mild eczema flair ups. We bought this cream more as an in between cream when not using steroids. Well don’t buy it! As soon as I apply she says it stings and burns and I have to wipe it or rinse it off! Show details

Contains phenoxyethanol. Made eczema worse – This made my sons eczema so much worse and it turned bright red and stung his skin. I checked the ingredients and it contains phenoxyethanol which can cause… guess what… eczema. Why put it in there? Show details

Painful for sensitive skin! – I get very dry sensitive skin on my face, as does my daughter on her hands. We both experienced a painful stinging after applying. Mine subsided after a few minutes, but I will be throwing this in the bin. I don't feel like a cream that is supposed to be used on sensitive skin should be painful! Show details

Instant regret – Mum purchased this for my face eczema. I tried some on my arm the day before and did not have any issues. Tried it on the face this morning and instantly it went red right where I applied it. Will not purchase again. Show details

Terrible !!! – Terrible... I bought this for my 6 year old who suffers from childhood eczema. It made his skin feel like it was burning and stinging Had to was it off immediately. Show details

Made my eczema worse – I felt like this was working the first couple of times I used this on my hands for Pompholyx ( Dyshidrotic) eczema. But now it seems to be worsening the condition. I have more fingers affected by eczema now than I did before I began using it. Really disappointed, and itchy ! Show details

Product does more harm then good – i've brought and used 4 bottles of this product throughout the past few years in hope that the product would actually work, and strangely enough it does the opposite of what you would expect, the cream causes skin to dry up and crack further, causing those who use the product to be forced to rely on the cream to stop the pain, that was further… Read more

escalated by the Cream, The cream drys the skin up further forcing you to have to buy more of the product with a endless cycle that soaks up your money Product doesn't rehydrate skin and acute irritation and the relief is very minimal.

Worse Than Using No Cream At All – I was given a sample of Dermaveen Sensitive Relief Eczema Cream to try and I started using it recently. This is supposed to be free of all the 'nasties' but my scratching was worse after applying the cream. I tried several times but got the same results and my hands ended up raw and bleeding. I have gone back to using Cortisone Cream prescribed by my GP which works. Show details

The BEST thing i have used for Psoriasis – I have had Psoriasis since I was born. It flares up now and again. I have tried loads of products, probably spent thousands on product that "claims" to help. I thought I would try this at only $9, it wasn't going to break the bank. I am pleasantly surprised, the Psoriasis Scales on my legs were real bad. 2 weeks in of using this product daily… Read more

and it has reduced by literally a third. No itching, no so red - brilliant.

I cannot understand why people say it "burns" their skin, it is ideal for sensitive skin - my skin is very sensitive - I have had no reaction to it.

If I could give is more stars - I would.

*I have no affiliation with the company and this is no paid review - this is genuine!

Burnt my skin – Bought this product yesterday thinking that it’s going to work fine for my sensitive skin on my hands. As it only has 3 active ingredients (phenoxyethanol, oatmeal, and sorbic acid) I was very eager to try it out. I got home and put it on and within 2 minutes my hands had flared up and were itching and burning. Will not be purchasing this product or any other product with Phenoxyethanol again for my sensitive skin.

Very bad rash and bad customer service – Our baby had a very bad rash called darmaveen customer service and they said they can’t do anything we have to call the pharmacy and they didn’t even care. Never buying any of their products again.

Winter Itch – The only eczema I get is Winter Itch. This year it was particularly bad and I tried many products including Hope's Relief which was an absolute waste of money. DermaVeen Eczema Lotion - sensitive relief - left a film on my skin which I thought was strange but at least it wasn't greasy like so many others (not nice putting fresh clothes over… Read more

greasy skin). Rather than sting, this product was a relief and it didn't take long for the redness to recede and the itch to stop and go away. I would only use it to control an outbreak though, not to prevent it. This product was great for me.

Hasnt relieved itching – I still itch as much as i did . The Dermaveen hasnt/ isnt helping at all. Im going to give it a bit longer if still doesnt work will change to another product.

Very soothing – I have really intense eczema, and once forgot my steroid creams on holidays so I bought this products. I only find certain steroid creams clear my eczema, avoiding achohol and cutting down on gluten! I found this cream to Bev soothing but didn’t take my eczema away. Wasn’t long lasting , had to reapply a few times a day to help with stinging. But yes very soothing!

Its great if you get a tube version – I have tried numerous creams and lotions to relieve itchiness and mild eczema symptoms, and this has been one of the best creams I've got from pharmacy. What I find funny about this brand is that a tube one works a lot better than the one in a tub (250mL). I thought it would be economical to buy this tub than a smaller tube, however I noticed… Read more

difference in hydration quality and 'oiliness' of the cream. I would recommend getting a tube than a tub if you don't want extra oily/greasy feeling that I felt with a tub. Definitely a good cream overall.

Horrible! Cream – I had eczema some part of my body . I knew this product which i can see most of shops ( Coles etc) . I had been dealing with terrible itchy so i bought it and started using it. Few days later, specially my neck got worse; it became red , pain, sting, lumps. My neck is so stingy pain. Terrible cream. I shouldn't have used it . Got worse. I… Read more

can imagine how little kids deal with this even im an adult , its hard to me to deal with this pain. People who have eczema, be careful to use this cream.

On a 6 month old baby's face! Disgusted! He screamed putting it on and it's made it worse! – Doesn't work on eczema!!! This is by far the worst reaction on my 6 month old baby's face! When trying to treat a small section of dry skin on face, following 2 days of Applying,, his face is red blotchy, scaly, like pimples, itchy and inflamed! Becareful when testing this product on young baby's!!! Don't make my mistake.

Not good for kids – I used this product with my 3 years old girl, and it resulted very bad. The skin is so red and broken. Thus I read the product description and it contains Benzyl alcohol which may cause my kid' skin got worse. I think this product is not suitable for kid who has eczema.

The only thing besides Cortisone that worked – My young son has a stubborn patch of eczema on his hand. Nothing worked aside from cortisone to clear it. But of course it flared up again as soon as we stopped cortisone treatment, every time. In lieu of steroid creams I tried sorbolene, paw paw ointment, QV flare up cream, you name it. Either they did nothing (paw paw), or made the skin angrier… Read more

(QV cream).

Finally doc suggested DermaVeen sensitive Eczema Cream. My expectations were super low, but we gave it a shot.

It took the redness right out - after about 2 days there was a REALLY noticeable difference. I couldn't believe it. We are still using it weeks later, several times a day. It isn't the miracle cure that cortisone cream is, but it also isn't harsh and steroidal either. It's keeping the eczema nicely at bay without the worry of side effects.

I'm really happy with it.

Broke me out – Bought it to help moisturise the dry patches caused by eczema on my hands but it only broke me out and made my eczema worse. Has a nice and natural oatmeal smell and felt nice on the skin. Shame it didn't work for me.

Great cream – Happened to chance upon this cream whilst at he most warehouse and decided to give it a try since no other creams were working and I didn't want to use steroid creams. I have an eczema patch on my elbow and also on my eye. Tried the cream on both areas and must say that it is totally moisturised and has stopped the itching. I can't say that… Read more

I've had any stinging sensation at all compared with some of the previous reviews... I have been using this for only one day and the cream seems to have settled down the itching and the dryness as well.

Will definetely be applying this as much during the day as I can! Would highly recommend.

ITCH AND STING – I cant stand this product i brought it for my daughter who suffers from mild eczema and like may reviewers she screamed and cried saying it hurt her! I tried it on a patch of eczema that i have and holy poo it stung me so much and made the area feel more itchy then before i applied the cream! It made me feel so guilty for putting it on my… Read more

daughter and this cream is not cheap!

This is not a product I would use or reccommend to anyone especially if they were putting it on their child!

Stings! – This came highly recommended by the guy at the chemist warehouse so I bought it although I would only buy an all natural product. I put it on and it stung and was more itchy than before. Money back please.

Saved us from using medications – My GP recommended we use his product on our baby for his bad eczema. She wanted us to try this before giving us steroid cream. Although skeptical at first we tried it and within 3 days his eczema was nearly gone.

Amazing product – I have had eczema since I was 4 years old, I am now 30. I have lived with eczema for most of my life and cant remember a time without itching skin. This is the only thing that helps me, better than what the doctors have given me. It take a few weeks to work, it can burn the first few times you put it on but its worth the pain over all. DermaVeen… Read more

takes the anger out of the eczema thus not wanting to scratch. A million thumbs up for this product (I use the blue one)...I feel like a person...very very happy

best thing yet! – We have tried a few things and this dermaveen ointment has to be the best thing ever. It keeps miss 1 moisturised enough so that she isnt constantly itching like before with other products. Yes its a little expensive but isnt it worth it? Works for my kid, try it out. It doesnt sting her or myself I use it on my face. This combined with the eczema… Read more

wraps im waiting for in the mail-and she is going to be one improved little lady. Not a cure but a huge difference. Cheers Dermaveen moisturizing, no smell, reasonably priced a little grainy

6 month baby hysterical crying-it stings! – Omg! Bought this in desperation for my 6 month son for eczema on his cheeks, neck and chin. He started screaming and crying hysterically and trying to roll away from me whilst frantically scratching at his face. He only stopped crying when I washed it off him and put QV cream on. I tried this twice today = same reaction both times. I tried it on… Read more

some minor scratches on the back of MY hand (wounds from baby defending himself during his creaming session earlier) to see if it stung and holy cow, it burned! I left it on thinking the stinging would pass, but it got worse so I had to wash it off coz the scratches were getting redder and raised. Use with caution if you must and only on pristine unbroken skin which defeats the purpose of using this cream for eczema... None Stings like hell!!! I thought oatmeal wasn't supposed to sting...
