Question 5

for about a year now, i have been experiencing a soap like taste in my mouth when i eat certain foods. the foods that i have specifically noticed it happening with are oatmeal and wads crackers. it happens from time to time with random things but not with

Accepted Answer

Very strange: Some flavorings (such as Bergamot and lemon) are the same as some fragrances in products such as soap, and your mouth and nose work so closely together it might be easy to confuse them.  Never heard of Bergamot soap or crackers though.  Certainly not serious, but maybe your body for some reason is just telling you not to eat these things right now.  Plenty of healthy substitutes!

Question 6

my daughter has eczema, what are good soaps/shampoos to use? she's 4 yrs old. is aveeno (oatmeal) great?

Accepted Answer

Eczema/shampoos: Aveeno (oatmeal) is fine, as are most of the fragrance free/low chemical shampoos.  However, if the eczema is affecting her scalp a lot, i would suggest a "tar" based shampoo at least once a week. Tar based shampoos are a type of medicated shampoo that really helps with chronic scalp conditions. They don't smell or look like tar that you think of on the street - so don't be scared off by that!

Question 7

can i use aveeno (oatmeal) baby moisture cream on my dry, itchy scalp? my scalp is dry from using dr.bronners soap.

Accepted Answer

Dry Scalp: You can  use aveno cream on your scalp. A good conditioner would also be helpful such as avlon keracare dry ; itchy scalp conditioner.

Question 8

i shaved my hair down to the scalp with just clippers. i washed with ivory soap and then applied aveeno (oatmeal) moisturizing lotion. is this good or bad?

Accepted Answer

FINE: Those actions are acceptable regarding your shaving of hair.  Best wishes.

Question 9

i get itchy legs, typically when i get out of the shower or when trying to sleep at night. i've tried clean sheets and new soaps. aveeno (oatmeal) lotion helps.

Accepted Answer

Dry skin: The cause of itching without rash is most commonly dry skin, which is more common in dry months. The list of possible causes of itching is very long which includes rashes/skin conditions, infections, internal diseases, nerve disorders, irritation and allergies, medications, etc.  If your symptoms do not resolve or worsen, best would be to see your primary doctor or dermatologist.

Question 10

i have a vaginal yeast infection. i use aveeno (oatmeal) skin relief body wash. my doctor says that's too strong. what's a good soap to use down there?

Accepted Answer

Dove, Caress &amp; Ivory: Aveeno (oatmeal) body wash, like most soaps, find its' way into the vagina changing the pH and enhancing your yeast infection. Dove, Caress, and Ivory are mild and will not affect the pH of the vagina if used ONLY on the outside of your vagina on the skin.(vulva).
