A mother has claimed a €5.39 miracle cream healed her son's severe eczema in just one week.

Cory Lloyd's son Jack developed the condition when he was just three months old and it got so bad she said he looked like "burns victim".

She said people would stare at him whenever they went out and he had to wear a special moisturising suit underneath his clothes.

The little boy is now three and has seen his dry, cracked skin totally clear up thanks to Childs Farm moisturising cream.

Cory, who is from Lancashire, told the Mirror : "I was sceptical as we had tried so many things, but literally a week after trying it, his skin was clear.

"When Jack’s eczema was really bad, I had to stop taking him out as much as I wanted, as instead of enjoying our mother and baby bonding time, I’d be so conscious about people staring at him.

"Once a lady said to her friend, ‘Look at that little boy, he’s had a terrible fall, his mum must not have been looking after him.’ I just went home and cried.

"All people saw was a young mum and they judged me, but they weren’t there for the sleepless nights and countless hospital appointments. I was doing everything I could and getting nowhere.”

Just as she was losing hope, a family member tagged the 23-year-old in a Facebook post about Childs Farm.

She went on: "At first, I didn’t hold out much hope. By that point, we’d tried so many things that’d made no difference.

"But after reading reviews, it seemed people were really impressed, so I ordered a few products – a baby moisturiser, a hair and body wash and a bubble bath."

After just a week of using the cream, Jack's skin had cleared up - and Cory said it's changed his life.

"Jack is so much happier," she added. "Eczema took over his life, but now he can finally run around and play again, like kids do."
