From Tears to Cheers: A Mother's Journey with Her Baby's Eczema

From Tears to Cheers: A Mother's Journey with Her Baby's Eczema

Join Mabel on her emotional journey as she navigates her daughter's eczema - from sleepless nights to seeing lights at the end of the tunnel when she chanced upon a new skincare range. Mabel's story is a testament to the power of gentle care! Discover how Cetaphil's products transformed Mabel and Tommy's lives, and how they can do the same for you, too.

In the soft glow of the nightlight, Mabel cradles her year-old baby boy, Tommy, gently rocking him and lulling him to ZZ-land. But just as little Tommy drifts off, his tiny hands start to scratch at his skin, leaving behind red, irritated patches. Mabel’s heart sinks as she watches her baby struggle with eczema, a condition that has become all too familiar in their lives in the last 6 months.

Eczema, a common skin condition characterized by dry, itchy skin, had appeared on Tommy’s delicate skin early on. Despite Mabel’s best efforts – from colloidal oatmeal baths to applying coconut oil, manuka honey, and gentle moisturizers – nothing seemed to help. Tommy’s eczema persisted, his skin was perpetually red, inflamed, and itchy, causing sleepless nights for both mother and child.

The Search for Relief

Determined to find relief for her baby, Mabel embarked on a journey that led her to countless doctor visits and trials of different creams and ointments. Each time her hopes were dashed as the treatments only brought temporal relief for her son’s sensitive skin, which at times, would bleed due to excessive scratching and tugging. The hot and humid weather didn’t help, either. One could only imagine a mother’s helpless despair.

From Tears to Cheers: A Mothers Journey with Her Babys Eczema

But amidst the emotional roller coaster ride, Mabel refused to give up. She continued to speak to fellow parents and friends who were going through the same predicament and one day, she discovered Cetaphil PRO AD Derma. Skeptical yet optimistic, Mabel decided to give it a try, after all at this point, she has nothing to lose but everything to gain!

To her surprise and relief, she noticed a difference in Tommy’s skin almost immediately. The angry red skin started to calm down, and Tommy seemed less bothered by the itching. But Mabel refused to allow herself to celebrate too early on.

From Itch To Hip Hip Hooray!

As she continued to use the Cetaphil PRO AD Derma range diligently, she watched in amazement as Tommy’s skin transformed slowly but surely. The redness and itching subsided, and Tommy’s skin became smoother and healthier! After countless nights of tearful prayer, Mabel finally saw her baby comfortable and happy again!

Skincare Revolution with Cetaphil PRO AD Derma

From Tears to Cheers: A Mothers Journey with Her Babys Eczema

Cetaphil PRO AD Derma is formulated to help with eczema-prone skin! Now powered by the revolutionary Ad-Resyl™, this range is designed to balance our skin’s microbiome, with the addition of Filaggrin Technology for enhanced hydration and Ceramides to repair our skin barrier. It’s a powerhouse of skincare innovation, to say the least!

From Tears to Cheers: A Mothers Journey with Her Babys Eczema

The skin-essential lineup features the PRO AD Skin Restoring Wash that kept its amazing formula, an improved-formulation PRO AD Skin Restoring Moisturizer, and a brand-new PRO AD Repair Cream.

Let’s Talk About Ad-Resyl™ & Microbiome Balance

Introducing Ad-Resyl™ – the superhero ingredient that brings balance back to your child’s skin. Ad-Resyl™ is a natural ingredient obtained from the Mondo grass, known for its ability to survive very dry and cold climates. Think of Ad-Resyl™ as a tiny warrior, fighting off the nasty guys like inflammation and irritation, to rebalance the skin’s microbiome.

Now, imagine the skin’s microbiome as a garden that needs good bugs to thrive. Just like a garden needs the right balance of nutrients and bacteria to flourish, your child’s skin needs a balanced microbiome to stay healthy and itch-free. This is where Ad-Resyl™ works to limit the bad bacteria from sticking on your child’s skin, helping to restore its natural balance, and keeping eczema at bay.

The Dynamic Duo

But why use both the Repair Cream and Moisturizer together? Aren’t they the same?

Imagine the Repair Cream as a cozy blanket for irritated skin. Its rich, creamy texture provides a protective barrier that locks in moisture and helps to repair the skin’s natural barrier. It’s like wrapping your child’s skin in a warm hug, soothing and comforting.

It provides instant itch relief and is suitable for eczema flare-ups. Enriched with Ad-Resyl™, Filaggrin Technology, Ceramides, and Colloidal Oatmeal, it rebalances the skin microbiome, hydrates and repairs the skin barrier, and soothes itchiness, offering significant barrier repair in one application.

Now, picture the Moisturizer as a cool, refreshing drink for thirsty skin. Its lightweight formula hydrates and nourishes the skin, leaving it feeling soft and supple while protecting eczema-prone skin. It is clinically proven to restore moisture retention; it is suitable for daily use, even during eczema remission. Like the Repair Cream, it contains Ad-Resyl™, Filaggrin Technology, and Ceramides to fortify skin resilience.

Together, the Repair Cream and Moisturizer form a dynamic duo that tag-teams eczema, providing your child with smoother, happier skin.

Embracing a Simple, Effective Routine

The Cetaphil PRO AD Derma regimen is a straightforward three-step process: Wash, Repair Cream, and Moisturizer. Begin by cleansing your child’s skin with the PRO AD Skin Restoring Wash to remove impurities and prep the skin. Follow with the PRO AD Repair Cream, targeting dry, irritated areas with a gentle massage until fully absorbed. This step not only repairs the skin’s natural barrier but also alleviates itching and discomfort. Finally, lock in moisture with the PRO AD Skin Restoring Moisturizer. These three products work synergistically to soothe, repair, and protect you and your child’s skin.

A New Beginning

The PRO AD Repair Cream and PRO AD Skin Restoring Moisturizer are safe for newborns and can be used on the body and face. They are fragrance-free, paraben-free, and hypoallergenic, making them gentle yet effective for Eczema-prone skin.

With Cetaphil PRO AD Derma, Mabel finally found a simple skincare routine that works for Tommy. Now, the bath and massage ritual becomes the perfect bonding time for both mum and baby to look forward to. As a mother, Mabel cherished these moments, being present and knowing that she was giving Tommy the best care for his skin.
