As a good moisteriser and healing agent of eczema I was given a creme to make up:- 1 tablespoon of lime water, olive oil, lanolin and glicerin. Mix together and apply 2-3 times per day and keep in the fridge up to 12 months if not used before then. This was made up by a chemist here in Perth, Western Australia. My brother and I have been using it for years and I have had no flares in about 2 - 4 years. If you are going to use this on a child it is recommended you halve to lime water as it can burn, but not all the time. Everyones skins are different. Best of luck.
