With the coming of winter also comes the itchy, dry, scaly skin! You know what I mean? Arms and legs that begin to look like this.
Well thanks to Skin MD we may not have to worry about snake skin this winter, at least not on our skin. Now our purses, well that’s another post. Skin MD is not just another moisturizing lotion, but rather a shielding lotion.
It not only adds moisturizer that is being drawn out from soaps, weather, and daily life, but it also provides a barrier that traps in your natural moisturizer. So now your skin can feel smooth to the touch and have that nice glow too.
I was excited to try the samples of Skin MD because we are always on the search for new moisturizing products for myself, my husband, and daughter. I always seem to develop very dry legs in the winter. I would think that I would have the problem in the summer with my skin being exposed so much, but I find that the winter when I’m wearing my jeans and boots is when I begin to get the dry itchy skin.
Skin MD has really addressed the problem though, and it is nice to not sit and itch after a day in pants! My husband has very dry, cracked feet and after applying the lotion consistently for about a week, he noticed a difference, especially when he wears his sandals or crocs, which leave his skin exposed. The barrier seems to protect his skin, allowing it to retain moisturizer.
My daughter also has a light case of eczema, and after using it for a couple weeks we have noticed a difference in the amount of bumps on her skin. They seem to have reduced in size, and she is not itching nearly as much. I’m hoping if we stay consistent with applying the shielding lotion, we may be able to get rid of it entirely!
One of my biggest peeves about moisturizing lotions is feeling like a greased pig after I have applied the lotion. I cannot stand that oily feeling! The great thing with Skin MD is that while my skin felt moisturized, it did not feel the least bit oily. That made me really happy!
Skin Md is also au natural, being fragrance and colorant free, so I feel safe using the product on my skin and my daughter’s too. It is also not tested on animals which is something else I look for when testing new cosmetic products.
You can purchase the lotion online at $18 for a 4oz bottle or use the store locater to find a store near you that carries the product. You can also try it for free (you do have to pay $2 for shipping) when you order the sample packets. What do you have to lose? Only that dry, scaly skin, right?
Do you have any favorite moisturizing creams? With my hubby’s cracked feet and daughter’s bumpy skin, I am always on the lookout for products to try!!
