Below is a realtime email that I recieved yesterday.:
"I absolutely love your products! I have suffered from eczema since my
childhood and throughout my adulthood, and I also have been suffering from
psoriasis since the age of 20(I am now 34) Initially I ordered the soap and
the Face Nectar because I've had scarring from the eczema on my face. The
soap is wonderful and the nectar has helped greatly with the scars on my
face. They are not as noticeable as they once were and I'm not as
self-conscious about my appearance. About a month ago I went to Walgreen's
and found the Super Moisture Body Balm. Although my recent psoriasis
outbreak isn't as severe as previous outbreaks, I used it all over my body
and it seems to keep it at bay. The more I use it, the more I have it under
control and it seems to clear up more. Thank you so much for giving an
alternative to using prescription meds, esp steroids. I hope you continue
to manufacture this product because I am definitely a believer and a loyal
customer.
Thank you, Jason "
Thank You!! Jason was kind enough to give me permission to reprint his email. They say that the proof is in the pudding and I am so glad to receive unsolicited reviews such as this one. Jason, I am so glad the products have helped you. Thanks, too , for supporting us at Walgreens. That is really important for our company, so we can stay available locally.
If you have eczema or psoriasis, please try our products. They will make your life a whole lot more pleasant. All the very best, Julie

Skin Free Skincare--Is it really Economical?
I took home a bottle of Skin Free Super Moisture Body Balm the other day and actually used it for the first time in ages! My husband has a saying: "The cobbler's children have no shoes". Go figure. I'm just non-compliant. Most health professionals are.
Anyway, I moisturized this morning and immediately got the same reaction that my client's get when using the Balm for the first time--This stuff is amazing! Honestly, I am always intrigued with the difference between the Balm and your typical lotion. Why? Let me preach for a minute:
1) The Balm is 100% natural oils and butters. NO WATER. NO ALCOHOLS. Therefore, no stinging, no chill from evaporation, just lots of moisturizing.
2)You only use about a 1/2 teaspoonful to moisturize your legs and arms and hands. That's 2.5 mls. That's a really small amount compared to how much lotion you would use to really moisturize the same area. That is, if you could really moisturize as well.
So if you pay $12.99 for 240 ml, an 8 oz bottle, how long will it last?
If you use 2.5 ml two times a day, that's 5ml. Divide that into 240 ml and you get 48days.
If you are a person with aging skin, rough skin, weathered skin, psoriasis, eczema, diabetic feet, cracked and painful hands or heels, crazy itching from renal disease, a pregnant mom with itchy stretch marks, an elderly person with really dehydrated skin, or someone who lives in extreme climates like Arizona or Alaska would it be worth it to you to spend about a quarter (25 cents) a day to find real relief for your skin?
What I find is that using Skin Free Extra Moisturizing Soap allows me to not worry about heavy duty moisturing with the Balm every day.
The nice thing about the Balm is that it is totally non-toxic. The Environmental Working Group rates it at "0" toxicity. So you get relief from your skin problems and no anxiety about about what you are using to solve them.
100% relief...Priceless!
I'm leaving for Seattle at dawn on Monday. Will try to post about the conference. Will definitely track down all the Dale Chihuly glass I can find and stuff myself with NW salmon. Thanks for your support! Julie

3 Garnets and 2 Sapphires Awarded to the Skin Free SkinCare Products
Karen C has very graciously reviewed our Skin Free Eczema Relief Kit, our Skin Free Spa Scrub Kit, and our glorious Skin Free Whipped Tamanu Body Butter over at her blog. As a life long sufferer from eczema, Karen is the perfect person to assess the effectiveness of these products. SHE LIKEY! She likey so much, she's got a forever contest (well, 2 weeks ;) for you to win a luxurious jar of Skin Free Whipped Tamanu Body Butter all your very own!!!
This product is very versatile. I use it on my face. I use it on sunburn after I take my tea bath. I use it on my ancient alligator legs. I use it on my overwashed hands. My husband uses it to massage my aching back (hmmm, me likey:)
Speaking of tea baths for sunburn! Lukewarm water, lots of tea bags, soak! The tannic acid in the tea takes the pain away immediately and helps you turn a nice golden brown. If you use the big family size bags, you can even apply them as a poultice to really painful parts. Slather on a great emollient after--preferably Skin Free Balm, Spritz, or Tamanu-- and you are good to go!
Speaking of going, go check out Karen's blog and win something!
