If you’re living with eczema, you know that what you do or don t apply to your skin can affect whether red, dry, and itchy skin stays at bay. But sometimes figuring out which products are safe for you takes some trial and error.
“The right skin-care routine can help support skin functioning in eczema, but the wrong one can make matters worse,” says Joshua Zeichner, MD, a dermatologist and director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City.

The report looks at three key factors when ranking – spring and fall pollen scores, over-the-counter medicine use, and availability of allergists. The study, which dates back to 2003, determines the ranking from data available 12 months prior.
