Changing my eating habits, exercise routine, and body products have all helped in reducing my eczema. Also, seeing a dermatologist has helped tremendously. Getting a regimen that is tailored to my skin has helped me understand and heal my skin.
Recently, I noticed that my eczema was starting to flare up above my lip. This has always been a very sensitive area for my skin and an area where I’ve had eczema scars. After some reflection, I figured that my skin was changing due to the weather. In Atlanta, it is finally starting to get warmer, although we still have our cooler days. I noticed that the skin on my face feels a little bit drier at times especially on and around my lips.
My dermatologist advised that I stop using one of the products that she suggested to me due to my skin being more sensitive to it now. She advised me to take a break from applying the cream on that area of my face and focus more on making sure that area of my face stays moisturized. At first, I was just using my CeraVe moisturizer. But then I noticed that it would irritate my skin sometimes and make my eczema scars even worse. So I stopped using it and tried BGLH whipped shea butter instead. My skin immediately reacted positively and I noticed the eczema scars were starting to fade also.
Now, before you start putting shea butter on your face, I have a few words of advice. First, you don’t need a lot. Especially if you already have an oily face, you don’t want to add too much more oil. Second, be mindful of the scents you choose to put on your face. Due to my skin being sensitive, I don’t put minty scents on my face. I use lighter and warmer scents like vanilla. The minty scents are great for your body, but I try to avoid any tingly feelings on my face.
If you need a lightweight moisturizer that you know your skin will love, try BGLH whipped butter. You can use it at any time of the year and it’s natural and synthetic-free, so there is no irritation.

Can you please recommend a cream or oil for fading surgery scars. Thank you
Hi Sondra,
All of our products work well for this! They work so well, in fact, that a reconstructive surgeon has begun recommending them as a post-surgery treatment! You can read about that here: https://bglh-marketplace.com/2023/11/in-our-first-doctors-office-%f0%9f%8e%89%f0%9f%a9%ba/
