Gloves in a bottle: Product Review

Gloves in a bottle.I have never had to deal with ‘super dry skin woes’ at any point of time in my life as my skin is extremely oily. It’s only in winters that I really pamper my skin with a luxurious pre-bath oil massage, heavy moisturizers and lotions. This winter, I used Skin MD Natural Shielding lotion and it has worked for me.

Recently I got an opportunity to try another shielding lotion ‘Gloves in a bottle’. Now I do moisturize my skin minimally during other seasons as well; usually after a shower to lock in the moisture and prevent ‘after-bath dryness.’ So instead of using any other moisturizer, I applied this shielding lotion all over my skin specially concentrating on my neck, elbows, ankles, knees and heels. And a week’s usage has left my skin smooth, soft and glowing. The lotion itself isn’t too thick and gets absorbed into the skin within a matter of seconds. so, you don’t have to use too much of it – just a little goes a long way. Besides this, it is almost odorless, hypoallergenic, non-toxic and not tested on animals. 


Even though I do not suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), I do have a habit of washing my hands frequently. As a result my hands tend to become rough and dry sometimes. I have found this shielding lotion a perfect solution for my problem. Especially - after I came to know that Gloves in a Bottle is a shielding lotion that rapidly absorbs into, and bonds with, the outer layer of skin creating a protective layer while retaining the natural moisture from within. Moreover, it does not wash off, but comes off naturally with exfoliated skin cells. So you have to just reapply it every four hours for continued protection. It almost works like you are wearing an invisible pair of gloves all day to protect and hydrate your skin for hours.

I have been using it for over a week and my hands have become better and smoother. As it is non-sticky and dries off quickly after applying, I can continue with my other tasks right-away. This lotion is just perfect for those housewives that forget to wear gloves while doing the dishes or those healthcare professionals who have to wash their hands repeatedly.

  3. Hi Anonymous,
    I don't think it's available in India. You can however order it online. They do have overseas shipping.

Aspirin for acne-prone skin

Aspirin has been around for a long time and its health benefits are wide and varied. Aspirin , or acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains , as an antipyretic to reduce fever , and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients. There is growing evidence to suggest regular aspirin use may reduce cancer and dementia as well. Investigators from the Women's Health Study have reported important new findings demonstrating that aspirin reduces the risk of a first stroke in women. When given to someone immediately after a heart attack, aspirin decreases death by 25%.

Aloevera, the wonder herb

Of all the herbs available in the kitchen garden, aloe is perhaps the richest in healing properties and has been rightly named the “first-aid” plant. It has moisturizing and emollient properties and is used in cosmetic creams, sun-lotions, shaving creams and face packs. It can easily be cultivated as a house-plant in a sunny warm spot with good drainage. Cosmetologists mix aloe with several other herbs and draft fancy names for it. Then these “herbal” avatars are sold at exorbitant prices. Growing a plant and using fresh gel is much more effective than bottled gel, simply because it is alive and therefore is more potent. It is the only plant whose extract is applied directly from plant to face in its natural and purest form.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
