A simple summer remedy for dry & sensitive skin

Summer sun can play havoc with dry or sensitive skin. Some forward planning now can help ward off problems when the weather hots up. But skin-care doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, the simpler it is, the better. It makes sense, especially if you are prone to dry skin, to choose products that others find effective and which are natural and uncomplicated.

An outstanding range is the Dermatique skin-care system which includes creams, lotions and hair and body wash products. These are serious skincare products; they are all-natural, highly effective and they are not tested on animals.

The success of Dermatique – which one customer described as miraculous - comes from simple natural ingredients, many of which are plant-based. The magic also comes from what isn’t in it. The products do not contain: artificial fragrances, masking colours, mineral oil, peanut oil or petro-chemicals. Instead these natural ingredients work with the skin's own renewal process, to soothe and moisturise the skin, bringing it back to balance.

Dermatique nourishes, moisturises, protects and balances dry, ultra-dry and sensitive skin and is suitable for all ages – which lightens the load if you’re going on holiday with young children as one product will work for all the family as the perfect after-sun lotion.

Here’s the other difference. Many of the cosmetics we use were developed by someone wanting to make money out of our vanity. But Dermatique’s development followed a rather different path. It was developed by a man who wasn’t a bio-chemist. He was simply a father of a young child who suffered from serious skin irritation for whom none of the products on the market proved effective. He worked for a year testing and trying ingredients and combinations of ingredients – and invented a rather wonderful cream.

Then he turned his hand to making different formulations for treatment and maintenance, for skin calming, cleansing and hair… and hence the Dermatique range. Ingredients include mimosa to boost skin repair, willow bark extract to soothe and calm skin, soothing calendula oil, Vitamins A, E and F, natural lanolin and, would you believe, wild oats (Avena Sativa).

Try it. You have nothing to lose. It will either work for you. Or not. Even that promise is simple. And if not, you get your money back.
