Reviews for the Hands

Skin care and treatment for the dry hands that keeps irritants out while retaining skin's own natural moisture. Skin MD lets the skin heal itself - naturally.

"I like it. When I apply it nightly to rough areas (feet and elbows, knuckles on my hand) those places stay smooth feeling until the next night. I occasionally use it as my facial moisturizer. Don't need much. I am still working on the first bottle."

"I live in LA working as a Nurse, and the skin on my hands is a mess. I am a skeptic and have tried almost every lotion. I have been using Skin MD for 2 weeks now and am amazed with the results.
I AM A BELIEVER.
Thank you."

"As promised, I wanted to share my story with you about my experience with your Skin MD Natural lotion. It has me in such awe that it would be a shame not to relate it to you in writing.

You were kind enough to send me a sample bottle of your shielding lotion after I'd called you to let you know that I would be placing a product release in our upcoming issue's new product showcase. Upon receipt of your sample bottle of shielding lotion I began using it on a regular basis. I simply kept the bottle on my office desk and applied it throughout the day. Though I liked the way it made my hands feel, I didn't really give much conscious thought to the healing properties of this lotion. That is, until sometime last week when I reached down to instinctively touch a dry, chapped spot on my left hand knuckle with which I've lived for the past ten years.

Despite use of many expensive products, I've never been able to alleviate this dry and cracked skin on my left hand. As is the case with many women, I've spent a small fortune on quality face and body treatments in an effort to stave off signs of aging and drying. And though I've been pleased with how many of the products feel, none have ever been able to remove the dry skin on my left hand.
It would amaze you then to find that this dry patch of skin on my left hand has completely disappeared! I couldn't find a trace of this rough area and my skin felt soft.
The Skin MD Natural shielding lotion didn't just diminish the dry area... it completely removed it!!

Being a skeptic at heart, I probably wouldn't have believed a story such as this had it been told to me. Believe me, no one is harder to convince than me so I found it absolutely amazing that there was anything on the market that can work so efficiently and miraculously!

Needless to say not only do I want to do a product release of this incredible lotion in my magazine, but I want to do everything I can to promote this product to our readers, family members, friends and co-workers. Your product is truly an amazing one and would be of great benefit to those artists and crafters in our industry who utilize solvents, adhesives, paints and other skin irritants. A product that not only keeps your skin moist but is able to completely alleviate dry and cracked skin is indeed something to get excited about! You can expect my complete support and count me in as long time customer.

Thank you again for introducing me to your product. I know our readers will love this product as much as I do. I will definitely have to get a large supply so I don't run out!"

"I began using the product immediately and have been very pleased with the outcome. In fact, I wrote a positive review that will appear in our December issue.

I do a lot of mechanical work here at the magazine, at home and as chief mechanic on a racecar that competes 35 to 40 times a year, so my hands are subjected to considerable abuse and exposure to harsh chemicals. They often become so cracked and dry that I can't remove all of the dirt and grease that gets embedded in them, making them look scruffy at best. But after using Skin MD Natural steadily for about a week, I began to notice that my hands were smoother, less cracked and easier to clean. As I said in my review, I'll never be hired as a hand model, but my hands now are much more presentable."

"When I read about this, I realized I had a lotion connoisseur in my life who could probably benefit from a lotion that works like this: my mom. She's always had dry skin and since she's been more or less disabled by cervical dystonia, she seems to suffer more from extremely dry skin in spots on her extremities. I know she uses a body lotion on a daily basis, so I gave her the little bottle the company provided me and kept some little sample packets for my own use. About a week later, she told me she was surprised at how well it worked and even went so far as to write a little testimonial for y'all. In her words:

And I can say, firsthand, that her soles and her hands are noticeably less chapped looking. It does border on miraculous when you consider that she was already using lotions on a daily basis with no real results."

"This stuff really works. I had several little cuts on my hands (I sleepwalk & I have no idea where they came from) and I used this for three nights and they were gone. Not that it claims to heal cuts, but I believe it did mine. It says you can use this on face, hands and body. It seems like it would be the perfect "outdoors in winter" moisturizer, yet it goes on very light. There is no fragrance and it is chock full of good-for-you ingredients. Definitely check this out if you work somewhere where you constantly have to wash your hands."

"Living in a dry climate, I've tried various lotions and creams to keep my hands soft, but they often left a greasy residue and would wash off, exposing my skin to further damage. Then I tried Skin MD Natural and was truly amazed! My hands were soft, yet not greasy. And after just one application, they felt hydrated...just like pouring water into (not onto) my skin. The softness lasted through dish washing and several hand washings, and my skin is noticeably smoother. Skin MD Natural has significantly improved my skin health.

In my line of work, I'm exposed to many types of fabrics and threads that dry skin and cracked hands can easily snag. Lotions and creams have been temporary solutions, but leave a greasy residue on fabric and equipment. Skin MD Natural is truly a lifesaver! After just one application, my hands were smooth and soft, and there was no residue. Even more amazing was that Skin MD Natural remained effective through several hand washings. Thank you for a great product! I'll definitely endorse this product!"

"All my life, I've had dry hands. For the most part, I don't mind it but sometimes my hands are so dry, they are as rough as sandpaper and snag my clothes. When they get like that, they really bother me. I then put lotion on them to try to soothe them." Linda also wrote, "Over the years, I've tried at least 30 different lotions and creams, probably more. None of them worked to moisten my hands for more than 2 minutes. That is, until I tried Skin MD Natural.

On the first application, my hands stayed moist for 90 minutes. On the second application, it was 4 hours. After that, it was a day, then 3 days. When I work a lot with paper, which just sucks the moisture right out of my hands, I need to use it twice or three times a day but otherwise, I hardly need to use it at all and my hands stay just how I like them. Now, that is truly a miracle! I also really like the fact that it is fragrance free and contains mostly natural and organic ingredients."

"I have to tell you this as I am so impressed. I had eczema and psoriasis in my 20's and again in my 40's. I was covered with it but got over it after some years with homeopathic treatment - however my skin remained ruined like leather especially my hands and was extremely sensitive to detergents and soap and other toxins. I would just break out in red itches. It's no fun being over 40 but having 80-year-old hands. I tried to handle the dryness with various hand lotions several times a day which of course would wash off and often were greasy, leaving my fingerprints all over the expensive glossy designs I was working with.

I found that I only needed to put Skin MD Natural on once a day instead of three times a day with other products. And after about a week I saw and felt a remarkable difference in my hands - they were soft and stayed soft! I had to look and feel them twice - were these actually my hands? Yes. It had enabled my skin to become soft from within. It's now got to the stage where I sometimes forget to put it on daily as I don't have that nasty dry skin to remind me. My hands now look so much younger - and it works on my elbows and feet too. So - thank you for Skin MD Natural."

"The lotion is very silky feeling. I tried it yesterday and today and was impressed about how long the softness lasted. I rubbed it into my skin on my hands this morning and even after several washings they are still soft. I will keep you informed as I use it to protect my hands from the severe cold weather here in central Illinois. I hope it will keep my fingers from cracking this winter."

Three weeks later she wrote:

"I just wanted to let you know that this has been the best year for my hands that I can remember. I use Skin MD Natural every morning and have had very few cracks on my fingers. Yay!!!"

"I recently discovered Skin MD natural. I have always had good skin; but recently had noticed my hands and arms were getting a bit crinkly and were starting to show some signs of age. I tried this product and in a matter of days my hands and arms look much more smooth, youthful and hydrated. This seems to turns back the clock. My hands now look and feel better. Since I started using it I have been telling all of my friends about it.

It is a great product! Thanks!"

"Skin MD works very well for me. I'm an artist. I use one application every morning and another before I use pigments or solvents usually with latex gloves for even easier cleanup. Dry skin problems are non-existent. Thanks."

"I actually love Skin MD. The feeling I get when I first put it on, makes my skin 'awake' and makes me want to get up & go. I tend to use it on my face, instead of my hands. I usually had dry skin flakes on my face from acne products overdoing it. Now I use the skin MD to repair the mess, and it makes the cosmetics go on flawlessly afterward.

Thanks for such a nice product! I love it."

"My boy has rough skin surface on his feet because he loves crawling on the ground, both indoor and outdoor. I put on the lotion for his feet for a week. The skin was not as dark as before, and it felt smoother too. Too bad he refused to let me take a before and after photo of his feet. And after a week, he refused to join in my experiment. So, I can only see the results after 7 days.

My gal only used the lotion when we were in Bali. As you know, some sunblock can be very dry to our skin, especially those with higher properties of SPF and PA. I put on the lotion for her before applying sunblock with SPF50+++ for her. She has eczema, and throughout the 4 days stay, she didn't have any outbreak.

Frankly, I love the product.

In short, this product review is only based on my personal observation as I don't have any instrument to measure the skin improvement. But give it a try. The first impression you will have after putting on the lotion is your skin will feel very smooth, as if there is a layer of protection on top. Besides, it's not greasy."

"I'm one of those people who has to put lotion on every day. My legs, especially, get very dry after I shave them (which I should probably do more often!). Now, I will be honest with you: when I saw "MD" in the name, I thought maybe this was a gimmick. What made this lotion any better than any of the other over-the-counter lotions at my store? A lotion is a lotion, right? Anyway, I put the shielding lotion on my legs after I shaved them, and it felt good, the skin looked moisturized, and all was fine. That's pretty much all I expected.

So, the next day, I get out the lotion again — and I don't need it. My legs look great (if I do say so myself!). Even that dry area around my knees looked good. So I smoothed some lotion on my arms, especially around my elbows, and went on with my day. The next day, my skin was still looking great. I was out driving around quite a bit, and since I live in Florida, I am always in the sun when I am outdoors. But this lotion just kept right on working.

To make a long story short, I went an entire week without having to apply any more to my legs (yes, okay, I went a week without shaving my legs, sue me), and they looked great every day. Plus, my elbows weren't, you know, pebbly looking. That's when I decided that this lotion deserved a closer look.

I went to the web site, looked through the literature, and here's what I discovered: this lotion is different. They call it a "shielding lotion" for a reason. It doesn't just go on top of your dry skin to moisturize what's already dry. It bonds with your skin to keep it moisturized all over. It actually helps your skin create a natural seal to hold the moisture in and keep drying irritants out. And there were numerous reports from dermatologists on the site (where the MD comes from, I'm guessing) endorsing the way the shielding lotion protects your skin. Now, I don't see a dermatologist, and I bet a lot of Moms are like me. We have limited time and limited budgets and a lot of our effort goes into keeping our kids and our families happy, and so things like our skincare tend to sift to the bottom of the pile. I know mine does.

But that's why I think that 21st Century Formulations, the company that makes the Skin MD Natural shielding lotion, is on to something here. Because I didn't have to spend a lot of time, or use a lot of different creams and lotions and such, to keep my skin looking great. They made it nice and easy for me. I just put on the Skin MD shielding lotion and forget about it. That's my kind of skincare regimen, right there. And since it lasted a long time, I really didn't need to use much of it at all, which means the expense is minimal, as well.

So, this product gets a definite thumbs-up from me. I am keeping the container in my car, where, like many chauffeur Moms, I spend a lot of time, so that I have it handy when I need it. "
