In this article you will learn:

1. What’s is Tencel® and why it became a lifesaver for sore eczematous skin.
2. How it helps prevent further flares.
3. Why cotton is not any longer the best solution when you suffer from a skin condition.

I’m always amazed how people care about what they put in their bodies and don’t care at all what they put on their bodies. I agree it would be easier if every piece of the garment comes with the list of “ingredients” attached to it like it’s in case of food. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. At least not yet.

However, using this as an excuse is very weak and can cost you health.

When it comes to dressing, there are two types of people with skin conditions: those who don’t really care what other people say and dress the way they want even on bad skin days, and those who prefer to keep their disease for themselves and hide their patches.

Neither of them is better nor worse. They are simply different. 

I looove clothes and shoes and bags and beautiful objects in general AND I’m a deep believer that when you wear clothes you love, you act different, think different, and feel different emotions (which btw was scientifically proven by psychologist Prof. Karen Pine).

The truth is...

I was organizing my wardrobe the other day and it got me thinking.

We wear clothes most of our life. They are the first layer that touches our skin and for us, people with skin conditions, clothes are our second skin, right? ⁠
