Skin MD Natural + SPF 15 Review

The weather I live in is extremely unpredictable. It is usually quite humid here, but lately it has been pretty dry. One day it will be cold and the next hot. One day we wear shorts and the next we wear a coat. All this back and forth wreaks havoc on my family's skin.

My hubby and I were scratching our legs until they were sore due to terrible dry skin and my 22 month old was waking up because his skin was so dry. I also have problems with Psoriasis and very dry feet. I had tried a lot of lotions that would help for a little bit but soon the itching and dry skin was back.

Well, recently I heard the buzz about Skin MD Natural™ + SPF 15 and thought I'd give it a try. This lotion is a shielding lotion and is different than others. I didn't know what that meant so I checked out the Skin MD Natural™ website.

Here is what it says:

A shielding lotion is far more effective as a dry skin treatment than conventional moisturizing lotions or protective creams. If you suffer from dry skin, you know that just using a moisturizing lotion doesn't solve the problem. A shielding lotion does much more than just treat dry skin – it’s a new kind of skin care product that makes a real difference to all skin types.

Skin MD Natural™ is promptly absorbed, without the slightest hint of any greasy or oily feeling or residue, transforming the outer layer of skin into a hydrating invisible shield.

Glycerin has been the standard against which all humectants are measured. Until now no other humectant drew in as much moisture from the air as glycerin. But the proprietary formulation in Skin MD Natural has a moisturizing factor of at least 6 times greater than glycerin. Combined with its protective properties and natural ingredients, this makes Skin MD Natural a truly unique product.

Other features:

• No animal products or testing
• Fragrance and colorant free
• Dermatology tested
• Non-comedogenic
• Hypoallergenic
• Paraben free

My family's thoughts:
We have been using Skin MD for about a month now. Both my husband and I noticed right away that Skin MD Natural + SPF15 didn't leave a greasy film. We both like that a lot. I also noticed that my skin felt softer and my Psoriasis stopped being itchy and became much less scaly. My Psoriasis is on my head so hair products seem to make it worse. The shielding properties of Skin MD Natural™ really seemed to protect my scalp. I noticed I wasn't scratching my head nearly as much and started seeing less flaking.

I also used this on my oldest son and his skin felt much softer immediately. I also like that SPF 15 is added to it. I put this on my boys and I everyday for extra protection and moisture when we go to the park. It costs $25 for a 4 oz. bottle with SPF 15 or $18 for a bottle without. It's worth it though and the good news is a little goes a long way. I have been keeping it in the diaper bag lately and hubby keeps asking what I did with "his lotion".

You can buy Skin MD Natural with or without SPF 15 at their website or many local stores.
