Kamedis Dermatology Calm Eczema Therapy Wash

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

While I do not have Eczema, I have had red and irritated skin on my neck that is likely some type of allergic reaction to a product I was testing, or perhaps it is some form of Dermatitis that may have been precipitated by product use, stress etc. At any rate, I am not putting anything on my skin in that area and waiting until I can see my doctor, but what I have been using is Kamedis Dermatology Calm Eczema Therapy Wash. I received a sample long ago, but really didn't need it because I wasn't dealing with any skin irritation, but I am so glad that I found it in my bathroom cabinet. This is a thick and rich lathering gel cleanser that is soothing and calming for irritated skin, and it doesn't strip or dry out the skin in the least bit. It has no fragrance, and absolutely no scent whatsoever, and therefore it will not pose a problem for anyone sensitive to scented products.

Sebamed Liquid Face & Body Wash

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

This weekend, while emptying and sorting the contents of my garage, my skin became rather itchy. Spending the whole day sorting lots of dusty old things, that hadn't seen the light of day in years, left me in need of a nice long shower, but since my skin felt itchy and a touch irritated, I decided to use Sebamed Liquid Face & Body Wash because it is formulated for sensitive skin, and my skin felt a bit sensitive yesterday. This is a soapless cleaner that simultaneously cleans and moisturizes the skin, and it never leaves it in the least bit dry. It is very very mild, though it does contain fragrance, and to me I would describe the scent as having a pine-like aroma. However, the scent is not long-lasting. I do not use it on my face, but instead only on my body. Despite the fact that it is not a soap, it does create a very satisfying rich lather.

According to Sebamed,

Excellent body care begins with our Liquid Face & Body Wash... Formulated without soap and with important nutrients, it dually cleanses and moisturizes your skin. It's also hypoallergenic, deeply nourishing and ultra-gentle, so that you can use it to care for your face and body with confidence.

Sebamed Liquid Face and Body Wash is dermatologist developed, ultra-mild, and compatible with the most sensitive of skins. It gently deep-cleans pores without causing dryness or irritation as regular soap can. Fortified with a natural moisturizing complex of vitamins and soothing allantoin, it rinses away completely for naturally healthier, smoother skin.
