Real Moms Talk About:Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion & A Giveaway

A Real Mom Review by:  Tracy Roberts

When I received my box containing the samples of Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion I immediately ripped open a package and applied it to my old, dry, wrinkly hands.

I was surprised at the light- almost non-existent- fragrance (a plus if you’re sensitive to them) and very light, non-oily texture.

The directions say to use sparingly.  As a matter of fact a small packet containing a mere 3cc’s will give you 3-5 applications.  I won’t say that I didn’t pay attention to the instructions but I have old, dry, wrinkly hands…’nuff said.

I was pleased to find that my hands didn’t have that oily or slippery feeling that often occurs after applying lotion and I began to “shield” my hands whenever I felt the need.

I have to say that my hands no longer look as old or dry.  Unfortunately, I can’t tell you that this lotion is a cure for wrinkles but I hold out hope. ;-)

I’m looking forward to using Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion on other dry parts soon.

Other than working really well, one of the things I really like about the shielding lotion is that a 4 oz. bottle will last 1-2 months with daily use – depending upon how much of your body you’re shielding, I suppose but well worth my money.  You don’t have to use a ton of product to get results!

“Shielding Lotions are a new type of skin care product based on years of research into how skin heals. They form a protective shield with the outer layer of skin and help keep out irritants. They allow the natural oils and moisture to remain in the skin so it can heal better and they’re light in texture so they go on without a greasy mess. Your skin needs help to keep out these moisture-robbing irritants.

A fundamental difference between Shielding Lotions and traditional skin care lotions is that Shielding Lotions enhance the skin’s own natural protective abilities by turning the outer layer of skin into what could be described as a hydrating invisible shield making them many times more effective than mere protective lotions and moisturizing creams.”  Dr. Brian Zogg, board certified dermatologist, Albert Lea, Minnesota
