For the sensitive!

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...I have sensitive dry skin so have to be very careful about what products I use. When it comes to cleansing my face I really like to use water as I feel I have actually washed, unlike when I use cleansing creams! I have tried several products that claim to be for sensitive skins over the years but have found many of these leave my skin feeling dry and tight at best and sometimes I have been left with a red irritated skin. I was given a bottle of Elemis sensitive cleansing wash by a close friend who also has sensitive skin and finds this perfect for her skin. Elemis sensitive cleansing wash is not cheap. It retails for around £18 for a 200 ml bottle, although it is worth shopping around as prices vary. It is available from many beauty salons or from John Lewis. So is it worth the cost? Elemis sensitive cleansing skin wash comes in...

Review of Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash

Sandblasting for sensitive faces

Advantages: Feels nice
Disadvantages: none

...Exfoliate! Exfoliate! This is not a new kind of horrible cry from a deranged Dalek but a way of keeping your skin in good order. Something my family suggested I do. On the last father's day I was lucky to receive a small present from my sometimes adorable children (since they are all under 9 years old I expect my often adorable wife had also something to do with it). After eagerly opening the package, as well as the obligatory sensitive skin after-shave balm I also found a small tube of something I had never come across before, face cleansing, exfoliating, vitamin enriched face scrub. Did my face really need exfoliation? What is exfoliation?! Consulting my trusty dictionary I discovered that exfoliation means 'to come off in scales or layers!' Doesn't sound pleasant but with some trepidation and a lot of cynicism I decided to give it...

Botanics Face Sensitive Cleansing Wipes : Gentle and Effective

Advantages: Easy to use, Gentle but effective cleansing, Easy to carry when travelling.
Disadvantages: None.

...decided to give the Face Sensitive Cleansing Wipes a try. I liked the sound of ?sensitive? and as with other products in this range the plant extracts used have established reputations for skin enhancing properties. The two active botanics in this facial cleanser are Sweet Gale and Marshmallow. Myrica Gale is the botanist's name for Sweet Gale. (The plant is also known by the common name of Bog Myrtle. Understandable, then, that Boots opted for the rather more romantic sounding alternative!) The packet labelling explains that Sweet Gale ?purifies?. This is no mere bluff. The antibacterial properties of this plant have long been known to herbalists. Marshmallow, or Althaea Officianalis is known as an anti-inflammatory and can assist in keeping skin moisturised. Little surprise then that Boots describe it as being able to ?soothe...

Pampers sensitive wipes

Advantages: Soft and strong
Disadvantages: Not wet enough for me.

...I was recently sent a pack of Pampers Sensitive Baby wipes for testing from one of my survey sites and as these are available to buy in the shops I thought I would do a review on them. My usual brand is Johnsons and have always got on very well with them but if something is free I will definately use them. The Pampers Range Pampers do a range of products for babies and toddlers including nappies and training pants, baby wipes and Kandoo toilet paper for children. Their nappy range has 3 different types, Baby dry for newborn babies, Active Fit for mobile babies and Easy up Pull up pants for potty training. All available in numerous sizes.

Sticky Situation For Sensitive Skin

Advantages: Protects for 24H, great for sensitive skin and leaves armpits feeling soft.
Disadvantages: Goes on sticky.

...Lately, due to an itchy skin problem caused by an allergy to limonene and linalool chemicals contained in just about everything that possesses a citrus scent, I have been clearing out my cupboards of all ?contaminated? items and have come to the conclusion that I can either rejoice at the space that?s been gained? or shed tears at the knowledge that I will have to replace everything I?ve been chucking out! My step-daughter will be chuffed, to say the least, when she inherits the latest in cosmetics, shampoos, conditioners, face and body creams/lotions, body scrubs, hand creams, shower gels and bubble bath, and the list goes on. My latest acquisition, Sanex Dermo Sensitive Anti-Perspirant, has taken the place usually reserved for my beloved Sure... a place that is shaky at best because I?m not actually impressed. Fist things...

Lovely wash for sensitive skin

Advantages: Lovely texture and fragrance; quick to use
Disadvantages: I prefer a separate eye makeup remover

...I am always on the lookout for products that don't irritate my sensitive skin, yet I don't want to miss out on the luxury skincare experience! In this respect I have enjoyed using several Elemis products. I was a little wary at first as using water on my skin can lead to dryness and that itchy tight feeling and some facial washes can feel harsh, however I found this product very soothing and a pleaure to use. The product comes in a pump dispenser which is very convenient to use. Just a couple of pumps added to a little warm water in the palm of your hand and you are left with a lovely light creamy lather. It smells very pleasant and not at all overpowering. I would say a man or a woman could use this product as the packaging and fragrance are not overtly feminine. It is also great to use as your facial cleanser while in the shower...

For sensitive doggies

Advantages: Almost all natural biscuit, Great for meals or treats
Disadvantages: No online ordering, a bit pricey for some varieties

...INTRODUCTION I actually stumbled across Vitalin through one of the online freebie sites, I can't remember which one but it was through Google. I've had my one year old Jack Russell, Dexter, for a month or so now, from Dogs Trust. They advised he had a slightly sensitive tummy and he had an alternative dry brand dog food mixed with meat. I was given a bag by Dogs Trust but this ran out swiftly (within a week) and the brand was expensive. I decided to look through Google to find a sensitive dry dog food. ABOUT VITALIN As I have mentioned, I came across a freebie site which offered a link to Vitalin Pet Foods for a free sample, free being a favourite word of mine, I opted to try the Dog sensitive and complete Cat varieties, you can choose 2 samples to be sent to you and you get within days, a 100g pack of the dry product...

Sensitive Armpits?

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...I have very sensitive skin and my underarms are no exception to this, I cant really use spray deodorant because of this, so I always am looking for a good roll on that wont sting or cause my skin to flake. I decided to try this deodorant under the advice of my mum as she has the same problem with her skin as well. The first thing I would like to say about this deodorant is that it caused absolutely no reation to my skin, I sometimes get a rash from using products such as this one but I after usage my underarms were not all red and stingy as they normally are. This roll on costs around £1.50 and can be bought in almost any shop that sells cosmetics or hygiene products. When applying this roll on you can notice a very nice clean smell that comes from it, it seems to keep you dry all day though I havent tried it out in summer...

Review of Sanex Dermo Sensitive Deodorant

Sanex Dermo Sensitive

Advantages: Not expensive
Disadvantages: Can leave white marks on clothes

...Sanex Dermo Sensitive - Anti-Perspirant Deodorant **WHAT IT DOES** This is a anti-perspirant deodorant which actively works with the skin whilst letting the skin breathe. It gives 24-hour protection. Its dermo active formulation with lactoserum cares for sensitive skin. **PACKAGING** This deodorant comes in a very unique bottle. It is a tube, which is round at the top and bottom. It is white and peach in colour. The shape means it is handy to grip and use. As it is a lot smaller than most deodorants it is important that you can grip it easily. The lid is also unique and it is clear so you can see the tube. You put the tube in upside down and screw the lid on. You then can leave the container upright, as the top of the lid is flat so you can set it up if needed. On the front of the lid there is a label with the Sanex logo...

bio-oil face cream

Advantages: helps cover scars etc
Disadvantages: none

...I have been using this face cream for quite a well now. I started to use it when i was in a car accident and i have quite a large scar in between my eyes. It's shaped like a backward L. For a year or two i kept putting on loads of make up to cover the scar. But i noticed this face cream and started using it twice a day. The redness in my scar has started to fade. The scar is really not noticeable now. I find the cream very reasonable. It's not too oily and goes on really easy. It has totally given me the confidence to not wear make-up and the scar has totally faded. The cream didn't irritate my skin, it made it feel soft and full of life again. The scar in between my eyes was quite sensitive but it ain't now thanks to Bio-oil. The product is great value for money and you can get it from most stores....
