If you have eczema, you try to find ways to keep your skin from drying out. One way is to use a gentle soap. Dermatologists recommend Dove Unscented bath soap because it has moisturizers and doesn't irritate skin with fragrances. Soaps with natural ingredients are also very helpful. The goat milk soaps from
Covenant Creek Farm are great and come in awesome scents. Glycerin soap is another good option, so I was excited when I found Pears Transparent Soap at Dollar Tree. (Soap for a dolla? Holla!) But then I read reviews online and discovered that the Pears company had changed the soap's formula. The new formula is supposedly cheaper, but it dries out the skin and has a harsher scent. Lame.
Luckily during my trip to the international goods store, I found some bars of the original Pears formula soap. Now I'm wondering if the original soap is just difficult to find in the US, so I'm going to see if I can find it or a similar product online.
