I usually have the same reaction to lotions, any lotions, whether they are from Wal-Mart, Bath & Body Works, or specialty brands, it always goes the same. My hands are dry and my cuticles are gnarly. I should put some lotion on. *Apply lotion. Less than 1 minute later. Lotion, gone. Skin still dry, absorbed all lotion, now itchy and usually accompanied by burning. I wash my hands with soap and warm water to remove lotion. *SIGH* Still got dry skin, but now it's red and kinda itchy. :(
OMG! I applied Pritte and it felt like silk on my dry hands, no itchiness, no redness, no washing my hands!!! :D I FOUND A LOTION!!! Finally, everybody has their favorite brand of lotion, I have mine! As soon as it hit my gnarly cuticles it INSTANTLY soothed them. :' ) Tears of Joy! I also don't like how most lotions feel really greasy, even when they tout Non-greasy formulas, this doesn't have that greasiness at all. I'm so happy this works with my skin! I'm definitely looking into a full size bottle of this. The info card says it's safe for use on face, but I'm leery of putting anything on my face, that reaction is usually worse than the hands. And definitely more annoying. I've had bad rash-y breakouts on various areas of my body, I'm thinking I may have Eczema. I've broken out in the past several times, on my face, shoulder, and legs. So I've especially been careful about the stuff I put on my face.
Yuzen included a cute P (for Pritte) golden sticker sealed envelope info card under the mesh bag of goodies.
The Yuzen Summer box has set the bar very high as far as sub. boxes are concerned! I LOVE this, and can't wait for the Fall box.
This is a box I would seriously consider gifting to my mom, or mother-in-law. I don't really have any close girlfriends, so yeah, the moms. I was skeptical about subscription boxes in the beginning, but I love Yuzen. This is a box I don't ever want to cancel, and probably won't ever cancel! I'm very happy with all the contents!
