I have severe eczema and skin allergies and have tried multiple over-the-counter medication or cream and has even seen specialists. Each time, i managed to bring down them down but after a short while, they flare up again. One of my friend introduced me to Pycnogenol and after taking for a few months, i see significant change. Although i still get eczema upon some triggers but it's well under control and it is no longer that severe. Though slightly costly, you get what you pay for. I'm grateful for this product.
