Breakthrough Fabric
|
|
Making contact with almost any fabric can be an agonizing experience for people who
suffer from itchy, dry sensitive skin caused by eczema. Now, a breakthrough fabric
called DermaSmart™ created by Milliken & Company promises to reduce itching and the
appearance of dryness, peeling and scaling commonly associated with sensitive skin.

dryness, redness, irritation, and an extreme sensitivity to touch are treated with either
oral or topical drugs, or a combination of both. DermaSmart™ offers an additional method
for symptom relief. http://www.dermasmart.com
