I am not sure if this soap is good for excema, but I did read online that shea butter is. This soap has a shea butter base. It is called African Black Soap. My aunt uses it and loves it. It's a very rich soap. You can buy it at soapcrafters.com. It is kind of expensive. Try emailing them and asking if they can send or sell you a sample size so you don't have to invest the whole amount. They also have an "all vegetable glycerin melt and pour soap". You might try asking them if it is all veggie just to make sure. That you can buy and just cut off chunks to use if you don't want to melt it and pour it into a mold. I have bought their glycerin soap and soap fragrances and liked them. Here is what they say about the African Black Soap:
African Black Soap (Ose Dudu) has been prized for centuries for its natural healing properties. This gentle soap is highly sought after because of the lore surrounding its great healing properties of skin conditions.
African Black Soap is used for cleaning skin, hair, and even the dishes! Its lathers beautifully, helps detoxify the skin and is so gentle on the body.
Our Ose Dudu is sold in blocks because its richness causes it to be too soft and pliable to shred.
Traditionally, African Black soap is not scented, so you can just cut the block into individual bars and use them right away. Some people enjoy chopping it, melting it and adding their favorite fragrances and herbs,
then pour into molds to make bars (how to melt soap).
