I am currently in the seventh month of topical steroid withdrawal, and things finally seem to be improving. Returning to moisture withdrawal has significantly reduced the amount of flake-age, and I'm so grateful. However, I did use Shea butter this weekend, because I was itching like crazy! I'm learning that what my body needs varies from day to day, and I'm doing my best to listen and provide.

I'm Lauren, aka Just Du Pree, and I want to thank you for reading. This is a space where I share my very personal journey healing from eczema and topical steroid withdrawal (among other things), life lessons I've learned along the way, and occasionally the thoughts of an awkward Black girl (no Issa Rae). I'm a performer and filmmaker, so if you feel so inclined, pop over here to see what goes on in my mind on the regular. If you like what you see, you can stay up to date with my work here. Much love, friends!
