Dermaceutic | Restoring Ointment

A few weekends ago, I got a bee under my bonnet and went on a cleaning spree in my house. When I get like this I use mounds of chemical cleaners to really deep clean surfaces.  Usually I wear rubber gloves but at some point I pulled them off and just carried on cleaning - a BIG mistake. I ended up burning my skin.  This meant that my hands were super sensitive and the skin started to peel over the next few days. Lucky for me though, a few days before this happened, I received a restoring ointment from Dermaceutic (R450).

Dermaceutic products are truly fantastic, so whenever I am treated to one I get excited. I know that I am going to see results and that my skin will benefit greatly. So as soon as I could feel my hands had taken a knock after cleaning, I reached for this Panthenol Ceutic, restoring ointment.

The ointment is formulated to restore skin comfort after aesthetic procedures (things like chemical peels, laser hair removal, permanent makeup, just to name a few). When a product is made to improve skin comfort you know it is going to help ease simple things like cracked or dry lips very quickly.  The Panthenol (vitamin B5 - helping your skin absorb water), Bisabolol (an anti-inflammatory), Shea Butter (a great moisturiser), Beeswax (acts as a barrier cream to keep moisture in) and Vitamin E (an anti-oxidant) make up the product and work wonders at improving the restoring capabilities of your skin cells.  This is a multi-use product, any area of your body that needs a bit of tlc is a candidate for this ointment.

When I used this on my hands, I had immediate relief from the tight feeling of my skin, especially between my fingers. I used this twice daily (morning and night) and within 3 days my hands were back to normal. The ointment applied very much like a typical ointment however, this actually absorbs properly into your skin, leaving you with moisturised hands that are not oily feeling at all. You can feel a thin film of the product on your skin, but it isn't thick and oily on your skin.  For me that means a lot, because I hate oily products.

Now that my hands are back to normal, I tend to use this product on my lips in the morning and evening. I recently battled with dry skin on my face which was very uncomfortable for me. I applied a small amount over my face and it definitey helped moisturise my skin and eased the tight, dehydrated feeling.
