Last May, when I went up to Leeds & S2 for my Spa Pedi & Mani Training - by the lovely Kirsten I came away with the most fabulous products - well what would you expect - they are Creative Nail Design Products! However.....
I suffer very badly from excema on my hands, mainly as a result of having an underactive thyroid, but I guess, some of it is cause by my job - filing dust etc.
Kirsten performed a Spa Manicure on me as a demo to all on my course, and I thought - Ooooooh, lovely.
On the drive hme, much later, my hands were still lovely & moisturised.
Anyway, months go by etc. I spoke to Kirsten on this site and said my excema had been much better since my Spa Mani. She had told me about how fabulous the products used in the mani were.
In particular, the Spa Manicure Finishing Lotion, which does contain Ceramides and is just as fabulous as a good quality face cream, but as it's fragranced, is more suitable for hands. She explained to me that, this lotion, unlike stuff I can get form the doctor, helps my skin to moisturise itself.
I guess it tells the skin 'how to work', instead of the dermols & diprobases of this worls doing all the work for you, therefore the skin becomes lazy and does not produce its own moisture.
I have not used it for ages, not really thought too much about it & have been slapping on the steroid creams with gay abandon. Not much improvement either with the sore, bleeding excema. Then I attended The Event - forgot my steroid creams & thought 'Oh bother! I have forgotten my blinking excema cream!' Or words to that effect!!!!! Ahhem!
I went to the Sweet Shop - who could resist?? Saw The Spa Mani finishing lotion & thought - GOOD GOD! That's exactly what I need.
I can tell you, I have used this (and not my steroid & other prescribed creams) at the very most once a day since the Event & my excema, which was cracked deeply, dry, flaking, sore, painfull & bleeding is all but gone! It was on every knuckle, cracked, all over my thumbs & 25% of each of my palms too & itchy like fffs itchy!
My hands are moisturised, supple, hydrated. The excema has virtually gone, but has left moisturised red patches, but vitually gone.
If you suffer from any kind of skin dryness, excema, dermatitis issues - then get this lotion, it's a god send to me.
It will be at the top of EVERY S2 order, whether I need it or not.
Just thought I'd share - Oh yes, BTW S2, put me 2 bottles aside, before they all go out!!!:lol:
