hi there.
1. your daughter concern may be atopic diathesis.
2. its a type of eczema secondary to dry skin.
3. in few clients it won't induce any sort of itching.
4. use only mild cleanasers for body wash.
5. apply aveene moisturiser on wet skin twice daily, even if there is improvement.
6. prefer only cotton clothes.
this will settle with age, nothing serious, she will be fine.
