One of those things is that I should buy stock in Cetaphil, because, yes ladies and gents, it’s eczema season.
I have pretty sensitive skin to begin with, you don’t want to know the many assorted lotions I’m horrifically allergic to, or the decidedly wonderful reaction I have to brief contact with armorall or bleach.
Anyway, back to the point of this post… Every winter I get eczema break outs pretty bad. They’re tolerable with the heavy handed slathering of Cetaphil and are generally centralized to my legs and hands (specifically the tops of my thumbs) though this year it seems to have spread to my lower torso… lame.
For about two years during the end of middle school and freshman year of high school the breakouts were horrific on my legs. I honestly thing that the disease in Cabin Fever was modeled after what I went through for those two years. Would you like to know what made two years of my life a living hell?
Gillette Shaving Crème.
If you guessed that I’m also super sensitive to that too, you’d be right. That silky smooth gel wrought havoc on my skin for too long. Luckily I – or really my dermatologist – figured it out, so I’m not still slathering up my skin with that.
And I don’t really remember how I was going to end this…
But you were able to start it, and that's what's important! Cetaphil is awesome.
