Any child who has especially itchy eczema needs this product. I tried a few different types of mittens for my son, whose eczema was the most significant on his face, and Scratch Me Nots worked the best by far.

I realized we needed to do something both day and night to help alleviate his itching, but I was worried that his development would suffer as he wouldn't be able to use his hands at all. When I would sit right next next to him, I could flip these open and he could play and explore with his hands, and then when the itching for bad again, I could easily flip them back.

I will say that we tried many different lotions to ease my son's discomfort, so these got pretty dirty when he would rub them on his face. Because the mittens are made from silk, as this material runs smoothly rather than further aggravating the skin, they do need to be washed specially. The company recommends washing on a gentle, cold cycle using a mild detergent. Some children with eczema are affected by detergents, as we thought my son was, so we tried using soap-based products to wash these mitts. This did not work too well with the product. I ended up buying a replacement pair since they always seemed dirty even after just washing.

We cycled through 3 different pairs at a time. These can be worn over your child's outfit or under. They are warm in the summer, so we could not take my son outside when the weather got too hot.

These were the best product we bought during my sons most itchy eczema days, hands down.
