Definsil Rescue Serum

I came about this product whilst searching the internet for something to hydrate my itchy, sore, eczema inflamed hands after trying numerous products so far. This has been my best find yet. The two main ingredients are Cardiospermum halicacabum seed extract, otherwise known as Balloon Vine, and Echium oil cold pressed.

Referring to an article from the website from where this serum was purchased trials have shown that skin redness may be reduced by up to 35% within 15 minutes of application and skin sensitivity reduced by as much as 50%. The important claim of these extracts is their ability to calm the itching associated with such conditions and by doing so the itch/scratch cycle which so often results in weeping, bleeding skin and sometimes infection, is stopped thus allowing the skin time to heal and rebalance itself albeit with the use of conventional treatments until the area is improved.

As with any natural or conventional treatment results vary from person to person. There are several testimonials from sufferers to support the results of Cardiospermum halicacabum extract.

If nothing else Definsil is a great fragrance free hydrating serum for the skin without the greasiness of oitment preparations. It is best used on a regular basis even when the skin is healthy. During times of flare up it is likely that a type of steroid is required under the supervision of your GP or Dermatoligist until the skin is calmed.

Available at www.skinshop.co.uk in 50ml, 100ml and 150ml sizes.
