Had eczema my entire life. Was hospitalized for it in grade 8 but after that it got much better, and today it's pretty good but held under control by cortico steroids as well. Dermatologist said I was one of the worst cases he'd seen. Anyway..

Glaxal base is clutch. I prefer the cream to the moisturizer. Drink lots of water and maybe lay off on things that your liver has to work hard with (like booze). Use your cortizones sparingly. Check out an allergy test maybe, mine flares up in spring/fall because of the dusts, pollens, molds kickin around. Try not to scratch, people say it all the time and I actually have gotten pretty resistant. It sucks, but good luck.

But seriously I found one of the best / easiest / healthiest solutions was drinking more water.
