Every winter I get dried and chapped hands. I have tried many, many, different lotions and creams on my hands to alleviate the problem and they have all been either too greasy, too heavy, smell awful or some combination of all three. No matter what I try they get worse. This year and last year have been my two best years so far for dry hands, they didn’t get nearly has chapped as in previous years but they still dried out and got itchy.
So when I was given the opportunity to try Skin MD Natural I thought, why not, the worst that can happen is it’s the same as all the others. I was pleasantly surprised that my hands have never felt so smooth, and I have only being using the cream for a few days. Even after washing my hands they still feel smooth. When I first used the cream it went on nicely and I only had to use a small amount as the bottle suggests. After my first use it still left my hands feeling a bit greasy, but after the second or third use the greasy feeling had gone away and I was left with a very smooth hand indeed! For the size of bottle (4oz) it says that you should get about 1-2 months of daily use out of it, decent for the size of bottle.
You can use the lotion for your hands, face and body. Around the same day that I received my bottle my face also started to feel dry and tight so I thought, well let’s give it a try there too and see what happens. Within minutes, after only one use, my face felt smoother and less irritated! No other face cream that I had tried had ever made my face feel that smooth and it didn’t leave a greasy residue! I am impressed! Although it isn’t in my normal routine to apply cream to my face and hands I really want to try with this cream because it does work as well as the bottle and their website says it will. Along with the bottle of lotion I was also sent some small samples of their shielding lotion plus sunscreen SPF15 and I am looking forward to using that when and if the sun decides to stick around for a while.
One of the things that sticks out for me when buying products now is the ingredients that are in them. Since becoming a mom I have become more and more aware of what goes into the product that I use and I try my very best to purchase environmentally safe products as well as products that aren’t harmful to my kids or myself. The word “natural” gets thrown about as easily as a leaf on a windy day. What is all natural to one company is not necessarily all natural to another. Skin MD Natural is very transparent about what is in their products. So transparent that they list their ingredients and then give a full description of what each ingredient is and what it does in the cream.
Our goal from the beginning has been to guarantee that Skin MD Natural is as healthy and beneficial as it is effective – and it is very effective. We use the highest quality, safest ingredients and never use cheap, irritating perfumes. We have the most transparent ingredient disclosure in the industry.
Skin MD is available for purchase on their website or you can buy it at most local pharmacies. They have a handy location search on their site as well.
