Product Review: Skin MD Naturals


Skin MD Naturals
by Julie Kieras

I get dry skin easily, especially on my hands. Winter time doesn’t help. Neither does the fact that I wash my hands a lot because I have a little baby so I want to keep the germs away! However, sometimes I am lax about my skin care because I don’t like many of the lotion products on the market. Either they are too greasy, or leave a sticky residue. Often their scent is overpowering and somewhat sickening. Sometimes they are overly watery and you end up sliming your hands on your clothing trying to get the dampness out.
When I tried Skin MD Naturals Shielding Lotion, I didn’t have any of those problems. The lotion is light in texture and nearly odorless (I had to put my nose right up to my hands and sniff deeply to even detect anything). When I put it on my hands, my skin seemed to drink it up immediately, leaving only soft, supple skin behind – no residue, tackiness, or greasy feeling! Perfect!
Skin MD Naturals is hypo-allergenic, so it won’t further irritate the skin. I liked how the ingredients contain no parabens, fragrances, or dyes. And there are several natural ingredients I recognize like aloe vera, comfrey, chamomile, and yarrow.
There’s lots of other reasons I’m glad I was introduced to Skin MD. For one, after applying the lotion, I didn’t feel the need to reapply fifteen minutes later. The moisturizing effect lasted me pretty much the rest of the day! That’s because Skin MD has humectants that actually keep moisturizing by pulling moisture from the air into the skin! Even if you wash your hands!
Plus, because it’s a shielding lotion, not just a moisturizer, Skin MD Natural bonds with the skin to keep moisture in deep inside your skin tissue layers. Some people even use it to alleviate eczema rashes, which I don’t have so couldn’t try the effect on that particular skin irritation. But I do get really dry skin on my hands and knuckles from cold exposure, and Skin MD Natural took care of that for me! And you don’t need a lot of Skin MD Naturals. Just a squirt about the size of half a dime took care of my hands for the entire day.
Natural ingredients. No harsh chemicals. 12-24 hour moisturizing / shielding effect. All great reasons why I am loving Skin MD Naturals!
