pH AND ECZEMA

Skin pH and its impact on eczema-prone skin

Skin of eczema patients has a higher pH (is less acidic) than healthy skin.

The pH range for healthy skin is slightly acidic:

4-6

Achieving a lower pH of your skin can help keep skin moisturized and limit the growth of harmful bacteria, which can enter the damaged skin barrier of skin with eczema.

Scale of skin pH ranging from numbers 0 to 14. Acidic ranges from 0-3, Neutral ranges from 4-7, and Basic ranges from 9-14

Healthy Habits

Healthy habits to pHortify your eczema-prone skin
Changing your bathing routine can help lower your skin’s pH
Typical bar soap can have a pH of 9-10. Washing with alkaline bar soap can raise the pH of skin for several hours

Things to do

red circle with shower head inside of it

Take a shower or bath for 5-10 minutes using lukewarm water (not hot) at least once a day

red circle with bottle icon inside of it

Use a gentle body wash (low pH, no fragrances or dyes)

red circle with a towel on a rack inside of it

Pat the skin with a towel, leaving it damp (apply topical medication if directed by your doctor)

red circle with red water droplets inside of it

Liberally moisturize your
entire body immediately

Use moisturizer throughout the day—whenever your skin feels dry or starts to itch

Bathing and moisturizing before bed are especially helpful to allow
the skin to fully hydrate during your sleep.

Things not to use

red circle with a hand covered in soap inside of it

Harsh cleaners and detergents, bubble bath, or hand sanitizers

red cricle with a red sponge inside of it

Loofahs, scrubs, or other exfoliants that can scrape and irritate your skin

red circle with three red wavy lines inside of it

Hot tubs, saunas, or steam rooms

Understand and manage your eczema triggers: allergens, overheating or
sweating, emotional stress.

On the surface of your skin is a protective layer called the acid mantle

What the acid mantle does:

Helps your skin maintain its moisture
Acts as a barrier to harmful bacteria and other elements that may penetrate the skin

Eczema-prone skin has a damaged skin barrier that can flare and result in a red, scaly, itchy rash

A damaged protective acid mantle can allow harmful bacteria and other elements to enter the damaged skin. It is more difficult to keep the skin moisturized.
