I had been using a mixture of betaderm and vaseline for years. It would work sometimes, but I have difficulty keeping up with the three days at a time application with the betaderm so it kept coming back and I would absently scratch it when I was focused on something.

Tea tree oil stopped the itchiness, betaderm healed the spots up while vaseline kept things from drying out. I can safely say I don't have eczema anymore! All this time, multiple doctor appointments and all I needed to add was tea tree oil. ;-;

For the last three months or so I've just been applying the occasional vaseline after I wash my face. Sometimes it gets a bit itchy again so I put on some oil, but otherwise it's finally gone after almost two decades.

*The oil is also toxic, especially to pets and children. Be careful if you use it and don't put it in diffuser. IIRC all essential oils are toxic to pets; if using a diffuser, it will build up on their fur and they will eventually ingest it which may cause issues.
