I have a problem with some moderate eczema. I have been using an over-the-counter eczema cream that worked for a short while and then the eczema flared up again. This time I got my tin of Dandelion Salve out and applied some to the irritated skin. First, it calmed the skin, then it soothed the skin. After only a few days, the eczema is clearing up! I really like this salve. I always rub any excess salve left on my hands into my cuticles. The cuticles are starting to look better, too.
