What soap is good for eczema?
I have had dry, flaky skin on both my eyelids for a few months. Initially it started on one eyelid then a few weeks later the other lid became dry and rough, though not as bad. Its not too itchy at all but does get a build up of skin on that flakes when I scratch it. I have treated the skin with a non perfumed moisturiser for a while now but with no resolution of the problem. I was thinking I might need something with an anti inflammatory in? Could it be some other sort or skin problem?
How do I reduce or remove dark spots on my skin ?
I have recently had an actinic keratosis removed and am now desperately want to get my skin protection right…any advice please?

Dry skin on eyelids may be the result of contact dermatitis. This condition occurs when your skin encounters an irritating substance. You should see an eye doctor if you suspect a more serious health condition like contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, or blepharitis. Your doctor will review your symptoms and conduct a physical examination to diagnose the condition.
