Review: Gloves In a Bottle
What They Say: "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. This makes it the perfect dry skin care product.
It does not wash off, but comes off naturally with exfoliated skin cells. Just reapply every four hours for continued protection.
It's greaseless, non-sticky, fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, completely safe and non-toxic.
Used and recommended daily for dry skin conditions by a wide range of healthcare professionals."
Melissa Says: This lotion, quite simply, does exactly what it says. I love the way it instantly makes my hands feel less dry, and then soaks in within a minute for a completely greaseless, non-sticky layer of protection. It only has a very slight scent (not unpleasant) which is barely noticeable, so I think those who are sensitive to smells should be able to wear this and not worry about lingering fragrance. Also, the bottle is generously-sized and should last for several weeks or months, depending on your use.
Retail Price: $12.95 for 8 oz. (at glovesinabottle.com or go here for store locations in the U.S. and Canada)
DeLush Rating:
