The nice people at Skin MD Naturalcontacted me in the Fall to try their new Shielding Lotion. I consider myself to be a connoisseur of lotion. I can’t stand to have dry hands and not all lotions are the same, as my husband might believe. Skin MD Natural boasts of a new concept in the lotion world that I definitely am attracted to
. Ever since I heard of Arbonne I always look at lotion ingredients to make sure there are no fillers like mineral oil. Fillers that just take up space without creating any benefit to the product. Skin MD Natural is made of ingredients that “Enhance your skin’s hydrating and protective abilities.” The shielding lotion actually creates a barrier on your skin to keep harmful elements out of your pores and protect the moisture in your body. Not only does it restore the moisture in your skin, but it protects your skin from loss of moisture.
Do any of us really know or care about the science behind the lotion we use on our bodies? Not me. All I care about is if it really works. The science sounded good, but did it work?
Since they sent me a sample, I have kept it in my car…my usual lotion application location. Weird, I know. I love it. They claim it takes a few days to build up the proper barrier with repeated use. Not only did I love the mild and unoffensive smell, I loved the feel. Even my five-year-old son loved to put it on. The true test was the fact that having a newborn in the house and changing multiple diapers a day, my hands were washed and scrubbed often and always with a squirt of anti-bacterial lotion, as well. Skin MD Natural really helped to keep my hands supple and avoid the added dryness caused by the colder season and extra washings.
I was very pleased with Skin MD Natural and will certainly complete what little bit is left in my sample bottle. Check them out. I think you will really like it!
can you buy the lotion in stores. It is so pricey, I can’t see paying shipping too. You got me hooked on Tano bags by the way.

January 31st, 2010 at 2:02 pmBeing the lotion freak that I am, I found out that they sell it 3 places here in Tulsa. I ran right over and got it. I was surprised that it was $7 cheaper than on their website. Hope it is the same stuff. I have so far put it on my hands and love it. I am going to try it as a moisturizer on my face and will let you know if I look 25 years younger in a few weeks.
Linda, your Tano buddy
