Eczema is not caused by type of skin but dry skin can facilitate entry of trigger factor much easily, also eczema causes dry, chafed skin hence many people associate dry skin with eczema. Genetic predisposition and presence of triggering factors like nickel metal, soaps, thickening material used in shampoo, cleaning solution, neomycin, bacttoban , can cause eczema. Hope it helps.
