Mum praises 85p Aldi bodywash for helping clear her son's eczema

Eczema can prove to be a nightmare for a lot of people.

And finding the right product to treat it can cause even more of a headache and it can be really expensive.

Well one young mum thinks she might have found an answer - and it's extremely affordable.

The mum, whose son suffers from eczema, has started to use Aldi's Lacura Body Wash and Foam Bath which costs only 85p reported the Mirror .

In a post on a Facebook group called Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, she said: "For anyone whose children who have sensitive skin. My little boy has really sensitive skin/eczema.

"He used to use oilatum which was £5 plus and this still stuff is just as good plus lasts him a while."

While she doesn't go into detail about her son's skin, the post has since racked up over 1,000 likes and comments.

Another mum named Emma Llewellyn agreed with the post, adding: "All my kids have sensitive skin as well as me and I have been using this for 2 years and never had any breakouts since using this it's brilliant."

Meanwhile Karla Mae also compared Aldi's bottle to Oilatum, she said: "Hannah my boy is the same.

"We always bought oliatum the full range.

"I accidentally ran a bath for my other son and put the Aldi bath stuff in. My eldest boy went in and I was panicking because his skin can be so sore with other products.

"Wow I have never seen his skin so good and now he smells amazing and doesn't look greasy haha amazing stuff".

The discount supermarket states that the wash is dermatologically tested and cleans without drying your skin.

This helps to improve the skin's protective barrier and to restore and maintain the skin’s natural PH, which can be especially handy, considering an estimated 15 million of us suffer from eczema, according to the office for National Statistics.
