If you have to use rubber or latex gloves, put on a pair of thin cotton gloves before you put the rubber or latex gloves on. This will help avoid a reaction to the rubber or latex and will help keep your hands protected from the sweat that these gloves can cause.

Avoid feather pillows and opt for a pillow that is less likely to attract and keep dust mites. Foam pillows may be a better choice for you and you can also invest in pillowcases that help keep dust, dust mites and allergens from getting into the pillow in the first place.

When drying off after a relaxing bath, always use a soft towel rather than one that is scratchy. You may want to but special towels for yourself and wash them with a gentle detergent and softener that doesn't have harsh chemicals in it. Laundry products for baby's sensitive skin are a good choice.

Rinse your laundry a second time. Laundry detergents can be terrible skin irritants. Even if you are already buying and using an unscented laundry detergent intended for sensitive skin, it may still cause your eczema to flare up. Try rinsing your laundry twice, getting as much detergent off your clothes as possible, just to be safe.

Avoid too many dairy products if you have eczema. The milk from a cow contains hormones and chemicals that lower the immune system and cause flareups. While having dairy products occasionally is fine, do not go overboard; there are many great, tasty substitutes to many dairy products, like almond milk and goat milk.
