Almost two-thirds of adults with sensitive skin conditions such as eczema say they notice a dramatic worsening of their symptoms during the autumn and winter.

Summer is a time to let skin breathe and rejuvenate itself. But unfortunately this year’s summer ruled that out completely.

Dr Paula Baillie-Hamilton, one of the world’s leading experts in the field of environmental medicine and author of Stop The 21st Centuary Killing You. She says, “Inflamed, itchy and irritating dry skin and eczema can be uncomfortable at any time of the year, but much worse as the weather turns colder. Reduced sunlight can cut down vitamin D production which is important for suppressing most forms of eczema.”
