Question: Right Product For Me

Hi I've being using the Garnier BB miracle cream for 2 weeks now but I see no improvement but I am having a skin reaction...my skin itches like mad when I apply and I have a fine rash. I'm using the yellow garnier face wash with it. I even had a reaction when I used Clinic and Nivea...Please help me!

Answer

I’m so sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time finding a suitable product for your skin. By reading your story it sounds to me like you are just one of thos patients that has a very reactive and sensitive skin, this is why you are reacting to most products. Unfortunately in a case like yours, if what I’m understanding from the info you have given me is correct, "over-the-counter" cosmetics are probably going to be an issue for you in general. You could keep going and try to find something that works by trial and error, but this could become very costly and demotivating if your skin just keeps reacting and deteriorating. In my personal experience, there is one product line that really helps patients with this problem and that is Lamelle’s Serra range. It is very affordable but you can only get it from a medical practise. My advise to you would be to locate your nearest skin renewal branch on www.skinrenewal.co.za and get yourself the cleanser, a moisturiser from this range, and an SPF. Alternatively, one of our doctors or therapists can may analyse your skin and discuss what you have used in the past and make an appropriate, specific reccommendation from you after having had a close look at your skin. We can then determine the correct products that you should be using eg.Nimue-interactive range(for irritated and reactive skin), OR Serra from Lamelle, or whatever the appropriate range is for YOU.
