Making protective textile sleeves for eczema-prone and fragile skin
Atopic eczema causes itchy, dry and cracked skin, with recurring flare-ups. Some fabrics can trigger irritation, while scratching can worsen symptoms and damage the skin. Managing the condition often involves regular moisturising and topical treatments alongside avoiding irritants.
Deuxième Peau makes reusable arm sleeves and leg coverings for eczema-prone and fragile skin. Its seamless textiles are designed to reduce friction and protect sensitive areas, and can be worn alongside topical creams and treatments.
