Eczema on eyes - Make-up tips?

HannHann Posts: 3,434 Boards Guru
So I have eczema on my eyes and I miss wearing eye-shadow. I have steroid cream however I'm not supposed to use it as it thins the skin. I do have Oilatum (another sort of cream) however I always forget to put it on. Also when I do use it for a long time, it doesn't go fully.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any make-up I can put on so I can wear eye-shadow :)

    I have the same and I've just started using eucerin mild face wash and 5% urea facial moisturiser and it's the only thing I've found which works!! And you can put make up over it as it's got a silicone base to it.

    I did previously try e45 cream but it had a burning feeling so I stopped using, then went to the docs and got Oilatum.
    Thank you :)
