Metanium for sore Bums

Advantages: Works in a flash
Disadvantages: Wasteful as a lot comes out at a time

...am totally impressed with the metanium cream and although I will be using sudocream again when this has settled, I will be also keeping a tube of metanium in the first aid kit. I wish I had known about this before now. I will certainly be recommending it to other mothers out there. It is quite honestly tremendous stuff. I think I had always had the impression that metanium was a barrier cream but it is more than that, it isn't really for prevention ...
...Lanolin can cause allergy in some people. The RRP IS £3.42 for a tube, but it looks like it is going to last for a long time. I am really quite stunned that it worked so quickly. Hurrah for Metanium for little sore bums. Lulu2004 © ...

Review of Metanium

does the job

Advantages: helps dry skin
Disadvantages: slight hard to wash off

In my opinion, i believe this is miracle stuff. It does exactly what it say and has no taste or smell and work perfectly for dry skin. The only that went wrong is when i used it the lid snapped off and as its plastic it cant be fixed so i always need to keep it the correct way up which is quite annoying as sometimes it spills. The oil is also quite cheap and i bought it for only £1.99 and last for ages! I used the oil for my whole body and you can ...

Review of Johnsons Baby Oil

Boots Baby Lotion

Advantages: good value, nice fragrance, versatile
Disadvantages: none

...a bottle lasts me a while, I've had the same bottle for nearly a year. As I don't have children I can't personally comment on how effective it is on baby's skin but I believe that'll be safe because of the mild formula and the good reputation Boots has. ...

Review of Boots Baby Lotion

Wat - er fantastic beauty staple!

Advantages: soothes dy skin
Disadvantages: none

...reach for my tub of Aqueous cream that I always keep in. So what is this mystery cream?~ Well it's basically a thick, non greasy cream that acts as a barrier to prevent skin drying out. What it contains~ The cream is made up of the following ingredients - white soft paraffin, cetostearyl alcohol, liquid paraffin, sodium lauryl sulphate and purified water. As you can see by the ingredients there are two types of paraffin used so you know this is going ...
...what does it actually do? Aqueous cream is fantastic because it can not only be used as a soap substitute, but also as a moisturiser for face and body or my favourite indulgence - a rich face mask. The cream is very thick in consistency so a small amount rubbed into the skin is sufficient enough to cleanse or moisturise. If using as a soap simply rinse off, or as a moisturiser just rub into the skin. My experiences of using it~ I first discovered ...

Review of Aqueous Cream

an all time must have to care for all skins all year round

Advantages: ideal for any age, any type of skin. leave skin soooo soft
Disadvantages: as it is an oil dont put it on just before getting dressed as it may mark clothing

Johnson baby oil gel....a must have for any age. I always used to use the oil but found it was a bit messy and I ended up using far more than I should have done. This gel formulation means you can use a small amount if required as it doesn't all come flooding out when you tip it to pour. I use it all year round, all over my body to keep my skin soft and supple. And I found it lasts me ages as you only need a small amount as it goes a long way. In ...
...it twice a day but in the winter months I use it at night only. It doesn't have a strong smell, not in my opinion anyway. I use it about 30 mins before getting into bed as yes...it is an oil so it takes a while to soak in but I think it is worth the wait and it leaves you with great looking soft skin. ...
