If you live in Canada, especially in the more than occasionally brutal Ottawa during winter, there is no denying the past winters have been particularly damaging in many ways than one. One of the first to suffer is, unfortunately, your skin, which the winter leaves as parched, dry or flaky. Definitely not a great way to welcome spring when you start shedding off layers upon layers of of clothing.
CHAFED, CHAPPED, SCALY, EXTRA DRY SKIN
I’ve never had to worry about having dry skin, body-wise as I’ve always been diligent in applying lotion/moisturizer right after taking a shower. Until now. With my regular grief over maintaining beautiful skin (which is always hard when you have oily to combination skin), I’ve noticed some problematic areas like the back of my arms, elbows, knees, etc. They tend to be dry and scaly, in fact, they got so dry and itchy, I had worries I may be developing eczema.
My usual products of body lotion, body oils and moisturizers weren’t cutting it.
SKIN RELIEVING LOTION MADE WITH SHEA BUTTER AND OAT ESSENCE
Admittedly, I’ve never tried LIFE Brand moisturizing products from Shoppers Drug Mart in the past. Not that I was hesitant to try it, I just didn’t put a big bet that it would make any dramatic difference on the current condition of my skin.
I was wrong.
Made with specially formulated shea butter and oat essence, LIFE Brand’s Skin Relieving Lotion did exactly that. Relieved my skin of all the issues that come with extremely parched dry skin. The lotion is a bit thicker than usual but it has a really smooth, buttery and luxurious feel to it. Not something you would expect from a $9.99 drugstore lotion. And that’s 354 ml worth of moisturizing lotion for less than 10 dollars!
LIFE BRAND PRODUCTS AVAILABLE AT SHOPPERS DRUG MART
Like other Shopper’s Durg Mart exclusive beauty and skincare brands such as GOSH and QUO, the LIFE Brand Skin Relieving Moisturizing Lotion is a clear winner. The price is affordable and the quality is commendable.
If you’re looking for something to relieve your dry itchy skin and get healthier skin ready for spring and summer, try LIFE Brand. It’s available at Shopper’s Drug Mart for $9.99 and if you’re lucky, you can purchase it on sale!
