If you suffer from eczema, chances are you’ve spent your fair share of time and money searching for products that can bring relief.

There’s one product on the market that has reportedly seen a 184% increase in its sales, thanks to the fact that eczema sufferers swear it’s a miracle cure for their condition.

It’s called Dream Cream, and it’s available at Lush for $33 (or pick up a trial size for only $10).

After one mom, whose baby suffers from eczema, took to Facebook to sing its praises, the lotion began flying off shelves and eventually sold out, although the company was able to restock it after two hours.

Alongside stunning before-and-after photos of her baby’s skin, Sarah Rudd wrote, “Nothing we were prescribed worked, even hydrocortisone cream didn’t touch it. Tried dairy free formula, Dermol, Nizarol, Aveeno, Oilatum…. nothing made a difference. He didn’t sleep for 4 months because he scratched non stop all night. ”

Rudd said the Dream Cream “transformed” her young son’s skin and that he’s now eczema-free, and she urged other sufferers to give it a try if other treatments haven’t helped.

Her post has since been shared more than 44,000 times, leading to the sharp rise in sales of the product.

Reviews for Dream Cream on Lush’s website confirm that it seems to be a surprisingly helpful tool for keeping eczema at bay.

There are 730 reviews on this lotion, with an average rating of 4.5 stars.

“I bought the baby sample of this lotion because I wasn’t sure if I was willing to spend this much money on lotion. I have eczema on my hands so I use lotion a lot,” read one review. “Lately, the spots on my hands have been raising up, peeling, reddening, and feeling mostly unpleasant. After only 3 days of using this lotion, the redness has gone down and my skin looks really nice again! Cannot wait to go buy the big version of it now.”

Another reviewer sang similar praises.

“They named this lotion right! This is the DREAM cream. I love it so much! It is super cooling and moisturizing,” another reviewer wrote. “I have eczema and this has definitely helped to make my skin less dry and itchy. While I admit the price is higher, it is so worth it! If you have eczema, you should get this! It is cheaper than some prescription eczema creams and isn’t as thick and gloppy. Even if you don’t have eczema, this lotion works wonders!”

Another reviewer left a super enthusiastic comment:

“I really didn’t have any high expectations. It’s a lotion. I figured it would be like most other lotions. Ya know; nice for about an hour and then *POOF* gone. Boy, was I wrong. This stuff is THE most amazing lotion I have ever put on my skin. It’s got moisture that just don’t quit. Example: I put some on about 10AM before work. It’s now 11PM. I can STILL feel the luxurious moisturization of this god-send. For reals.”

Dream Cream features a number of ingredients known for their moisturizing and skin-soothing properties, including oat milk, lavender, chamomile, olive oil and cocoa butter.
