Hi, I have had it all my life and have been frustrated at always being given hydrocorizone but it does clear up break outs and gets them under control for me (eyelids and hands mainly) however other things to try to help prevent breakouts that I have found good. Aveeno range is good. Body wash and cream (lotion not strong enough) really nice and I don't react to it. Definately use non bio washing powder, one for sensitive skin, no fabric softener. this really iritates my skin especially if used in bed sheets. almond oil in the bath, has helped a bit with my son's very dry skin. E45 hand wash instead of soap, avoids transferring soap onto baby's skin. good luck Jenny
