How to Choose the Right Clothing for Eczema-Prone Skin

May 4 2023 / Health and Wellness

As someone with eczema-prone skin, I know how challenging it can be to find the right clothing that doesn't irritate my skin. The key is to opt for soft, breathable fabrics like cotton, bamboo, or Tencel, which help in reducing friction and overheating. It's also essential to avoid synthetic materials, like polyester and nylon, as they can cause irritation and worsen eczema symptoms. Additionally, choosing loose-fitting clothes over tight ones allows for better airflow and less irritation. Lastly, always check for seams and tags that could potentially irritate your skin, and opt for seamless clothing or remove any scratchy tags.
