Skin MD Natural review & giveaway

Posted in: Current Giveaways,Eco friendly,FYI Articles,Fashion & Beauty,Health & Fitness | February 8th, 2010

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Skin MD Natural and they offered me one of their products to test & review. The product, Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion. I don’t know about you but during the winter months the cold, chilly air really dries out my skin and gives me that creepy, crawly feeling like I’ve rolled around in a pile of insulation. That is the most uncomfortable and annoying feeling.

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to try this product. It came in a full size bottle and I can’t boast enough about it. I tried it for 4 weeks to give myself enough time to actually get a feel for how it absorbed into my skin, how long it lasted and if it got rid of the itches. It does what it says it will do. I’m sad to say that my bottle is nearly gone. But happily I can always get more.

A small amount goes a long way and is completely absorbed into the skin leaving a really nice, silky soft feeling all over. My husband keeps telling me how soft I feel and won’t quit touching me. Is that great or what? I’ve tried many other lotions and this is the only one that does not leave a sticky or waxy feeling. It just feels soft and smooth. And it lasts a long time.

Skin MD Natural Shielding lotion is an all natural product that not only enhances the feel of your skin but it hydrates and protects as well. It also helps to fight the aging process. I’m 38 so that is a plus. The older we get the older our skin gets and we lose elasticity. Keeping your skin hydrated helps to prevent unwanted wrinkles.

There are no irritants in Skin MD Natural products either. It does contain Aloe, Vitamin E, and Chamomile that help to heal dry skin caused by harsh winter weather. The shielding lotion acts as a barrier to protect your skin and hold in it’s own natural moisture.

When you have dry, itchy skin you should know that the protective outer layer of skin has been stripped away. In the winter, without that protective layer you get very dry skin. Shielding lotions are great for anyone who is exposed to chemicals in their work environment. And even if you don’t work near harsh chemicals your skin is exposed to irritants and chemicals almost every day, even in a normal household environment, so a shielding lotion can be a useful dry skin care solution for most people. And it won’t create the negative moisture message skin can get from conventional lotions.

All of Skin MD Natural’s products are eco-friendly, used & recommended by dermatologists, and hypo-allergenic. They are also made in the US by 21st Century Formulations using high quality natural ingredients making it over 90% all natural. All ingredients are considered to be of food grade and are also on the FDA’s most safe list. They are free of harmful fragrances, parabens, and colorants making them hypoallergenic. Another great thing is Skin MD Natural does not participate in animal testing nor does the lotion contain any animal products. I really love & appreciate that!

I really think it’s time you throw away those conventional lotions and give Skin MD Natural a try. You will love their products. Especially the Shielding lotion.
