How to choose the right clothing for children with eczema
This article was last updated on 10 November 2023
Eczema is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, but it can be particularly challenging for children. The symptoms of eczema, such as dry, itchy skin and rashes, can interfere with a child's sleep and daily activities. If you are a parent of a child with eczema, you know how important it is to find ways to soothe their skin and make them feel comfortable. One way to help your child is by choosing the right clothing.
When it comes to eczema clothing for children, the most important factor is the fabric. The fabric should be soft and gentle on the skin, avoiding rough textures or irritating materials. Ideally, the clothing should be made from natural fibers, such as organic cotton, lyocell, or bamboo, as synthetic materials can sometimes cause irritation.
When choosing eczema clothing for your child, there are a few other factors to consider. Look for clothing that is easy to put on and take off, as this can help minimize skin irritation. Clothing that has been treated with harsh chemicals or dyes should be avoided, as these can further aggravate eczema symptoms. Finally, be sure to wash your child's eczema clothing separately from other clothing to prevent any potential irritants or allergens from coming into contact with their skin.
At SOOTHLA, we take eczema clothing a step further by incorporating a special lyocell fabric that contains zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is known for its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, making it an ideal ingredient for eczema clothing. When the fabric comes into contact with the skin, the zinc oxide can help to reduce skin inflammation and itchiness, providing relief for children with eczema.
Our lyocell fabric is also highly absorbent, which can help keep your child's skin dry and comfortable. When the skin is dry, it is less likely to become irritated or inflamed, which can reduce the severity of eczema symptoms.
In addition to our special lyocell fabric with zinc oxide, our eczema clothing for children also features a seamless design that is free from itchy inside labels to prevent skin irritation. We understand that even the slightest scratch can worsen eczema symptoms, which is why our baby bodysuit has integrated anti-scratch mittens. These mittens are designed to prevent your child from scratching open their irritated skin, allowing it to heal and reducing the risk of infection.
We believe that every child deserves to feel comfortable in their clothing, especially when dealing with a skin condition like eczema. That's why we've put so much care and attention into designing our eczema clothing for children. Our clothing is not only gentle and soothing on the skin, but it's also practical and easy to wear. We want to make life a little bit easier for parents of children with eczema by providing clothing that can help to reduce their child's symptoms and improve their quality of life.
In conclusion, if you're looking for eczema clothing for your child, remember the following:
- Choose a soft, gentle fabric that is preferably made from natural fibers
- Look for clothing that is easy to put on and take off
- Avoid harsh chemicals or dyes
- Pick clothing that is free from itchy inside elements
