When I received my sample of Gloves in a Bottle shielding lotion a month ago, I was skeptical. I read the testimonials and claims on the product web site, and I looked at the before (ick!) and after photos, too. Nonetheless, I decided I'd put it to the test. I subjected Gloves in a Bottle to the driest, most cracked skin I could find: on my feet.
I didn't take before photos, but believe me when I say that my feet were like sandpaper. Scratchy, ugly skin that catches on socks and sheets. Attractive. Not! And in the winter, they're even worse. With the furnace cranking all the time (it's been a very cold January in NY), the air in my house is extremely dry.
After one use of Gloves in a Bottle, I noticed an improvement in my feet. I've been using it for 4-5 weeks now, and the skin on my feet is in much better condition than my chapped red hands, which haven't been treated to this lotion. The skin on my feet doesn't catch on anything anymore, and it's actually soft! The instructions said to apply the lotion every 4 hours, but I only use it once/day. This stuff works!
Two thumbs up on Gloves in a Bottle.
If you’re thinking about hand lotions and skin cares one of the best solutions around at the moment for moisture loss seems to be a shielding lotion and Gloves in a Bottle seems to be one of the best. A good shielding lotion treats and prevents dry skin by bonding with the surface layer of the skin to form a protective layer that locks in the skin’s natural moisture while also preventing absorption of drying chemicals and pollutants. Observing some skin care basics (see below) using a good shielding lotion will ensure your skin stays moist and beautiful throughout the year.
Some basic skin care tips: -
Use natural body cleansers that are mild and don't contain harsh chemicals.
As much as possible, do the same for your home. Go green!
If you're out in the sun, winter or summer, apply a sunscreen.
Again, go for something natural. There are a few products available now that do not contain harmful ingredients.
Keep your skin moisturized.
Protect your skin against the harsh environment – whether it is pollutants, dry winds, rain, snow, sleet or hail.
