"very soothing"
I am so pleased that we was chosen to review the Honey comb propolis cream for excema
I have excema,emily has excema and alice may so i have been using it for over a month now with great results
Firstly alice mays excema has almost vanished!!!she has a tiny spot on her hand now and it isnt red at all
emilys chest is still very dry and does flare up but as soon as i use the cream it soothes the itchyness and redness in a few days.
My excema is still quite bad and is a rsult of stress atm!
so i think no cream will get rid of mine...maybe a life coach would though;)
The cream is very creamy but rubs in easily.
i rubbed it between my fingers to warm it a little as i found this helped with the application.
emily says it smells lovely and is warm when rubbed on her chest.
A little goes a long way as well so dont be decieved by the small pots as i have loads left still.
I have already recommened it to a friend at work as well
I will defenitly be buying some when my pot runs out.
fantastic product
many thanks

"what a lovely cream"
I got sent a pot of this to test and im soo glad i was choosen. It is a lovely cream, really easy to use and very easy to spread over the skin (even though the cream is thick it blends really well) It has a mild smell which i found quite soothing, i would say it smells like beeswax more than anything, im surprised to read that one of the other mums found it strong as i couldnt really smell it til i applied it.
The cream works wonders on dry skin as my little one suffers from dry elbows and knees and it really helped the dry patches, funny thing is keep using it on her made my hands really soft and i suffer from dry hands so i now use it for me and her.
I would agree with the others about the downside being it comes in a glass jar as this could be quite dangerous around little ones.
Value for money was great as it cost just under £5 for a pot but even though it isnt a huge pot it lasts quite a whil.
They have lots of other products which i am interested in right from soap to hand-creams, etc.
It really is a good buy and well worth buying some if you or anyone else suffer from dry skin in your family.

"A little goes a long way"
I recently had a reaction to a skin cream, I was left very itchy which is something you don't want in late pregnancy. This cream helped to soothe the itch. It also left my skin very soft. My skin has a tendency to get quite dry during pregnancy.
A little of this cream goes a long way. I still have most of a pot left.
I've also been using this on my face after a bath, it has helped with the rough patches of skin I get on my face. I don't think my skin has felt this soft for months.
I have used this on my 2 year old daughter for her eczema and it has cleared it up completely. She really likes this cream and asks for more.
It has a nice texture and is absorbed quickly.
I only thing I'm not keen on is the smell. I find it a little too strong.
I will be looking into buying other products from Honeycomb Skincare.

"excellent product"
I have been using the honey&propois cream on my 4 week old daughter for a couple of weeks as she has very dry skin. The cream smells wonderful, it sinks into the skin beautifully. The cream leaves the skin very soft. My daughter also has very bad cradle cap so I thought I would try the cream to see if it helped. I applied a thin layer of cream and left it to work for about half an hour, I then took a muslim and gently wiped the area, every bit of the cradle cap was removed it was like the cream had just melted it away. The cream does not irratate the skin or leave the skin red, its very gentle. I will continue to use this cream and I will definatly be buying more and also looking at the other products that honeycomb sell.

"Smells Great"
WOW, this cream is super. Smells fab and you only need a very little amount and the results are amazing.
My 2 year old has excema and his boy bits always flare up and I hate using the steroid cream on him there and this cream just worked wonders.
Highly recommended :-)

"we all love it"
when the cream arrived i was a bit doubtful as i myself have tried many things for eczema over the years none have really done anything but i thought give it a go can't hurt and i was amazed by the results the itching stopped the redness disapeared and i had 3 relaxed children as they always scratch in bed they have been sleeping alot better and the skin has cleared so much so i decided to try it for myself my eczema is really bad i scratch til i bleed and it took the itch away it hasnt took the dryness away but i will continue using
i will definalty be investing in more of these products i would recommend this to all its smell is so nice and the results are fantastic .
the only down side is the glass container
but everything else is brilliant

"Lovely Pure Cream"
The cream comes in a small jar and at first I thought my 18 month old would use it all in one application, but it you don't need a lot, as when the cream warms up it goes a long way. It smells much better than creams I have used in the past, and knowing that it is pure is very reassuring. The only trouble I had was that my daughter wanted to eat the cream rather than rub it in. I highly recommend other mums to try this cream and see if it suits their kids, as well as it did mine!

"Gorgeous!!"
This cream is soo nice!
I love the smell, and i love the feel of it too! Some creams feel really greasy on your skin but this one doesn't at all, it just soaks in nicely leaving a gorgeous smell good enough to eat!
I get reall bad skin on my hands which gets very sore and cracked, well since using this cream i haven't suffered at all. Also get similar thing on my elbows, really dry scratchy skin which cracks but again, i used this cream on them and they are soo incredibly soft!

"fast acting"
Liam, 11 months, suffers from dry skin and eczema, I dislike using the steroid creams prescribed by his g.p too often, especially on his forehead, which has been quite red and sore lately causing him a lot of itching and discomfort. I began to use this cream and the redness went very quickly and after a few applications Liam was no longer scratching and seemed a lt more comfortable. I also used the cream on my 2 year olds dry knees. Her skin now feels a great deal softer. I would definetely recommend this product, it has helped with both of my childrens skin problems, its gentle , natural and smells fabulous.

"'it makes you smell nice'"
My 5yr old daughter has terrible eczema all over. Because of the hot weather recently it flared up badly, leaving her skin red raw, nothing helping at all. I received this cream and started using it twice a day, on the sore areas and where the skin was very dry.
I have found that the cream has made the dry areas softer to touch, and she is not scratching. The red,sore areas have improved too, they dont itch as much, but it is still there, although i am sure if i continue to use this cream it will continue to improve.
The cream itself is soft to touch, not too runny and smells lovely! My daughter likes using it as she said it makes her smell nice! wheras i have trouble getting her to use her normal day to day creams.
I like to use natural ingrediants for my childrens skin, and i think if this continues to work for my daughter, i will buy some when this pot runs out!

"smells good enough to eat!"
This cream smells gorgeous and is really creamy. Callum has had dry patches on his legs for a few months and i've tried a variety of creams that have not helped.After applying the cream for a few weeks twice a day his skin feels softer and smoother. The ingredients of honey and propolis are a natural alternative to relieve eczema and psoriasis and this cream comes in a 30ml pot for £4.95. A small amount goes a long way but the only downside is that the pot is made of glass. Not always suitable when your baby grabs everything or to carry around in bag.
Overall, I would recommend this product to try on eczema and to check out the other available products(there are loads!)
