Eczema and Steroid Creams

[barb1314]

Hi all, hope someone can help. I've had facial eczema for years and have always used Locoid cream on it. If i stop the cream for a couple of days my skin really flares up. I've decided to try and wean my skin off it's addiction and wondered if anyone had any proven natural creams or remedies that they had tried? Long term use of steroid cream causes thinning of the skin so I have to be very careful. I have some Aloe Propolis Creme which seems alright so far but would be grateful for any other suggestions. Thanks a lot.
