5.0 out of 5 stars Banish winter itchy skin, February 11, 2009

I thought I was going to lose my mind with my skin feeling so dry and itchy this winter, particularly my back, in places I couldn't reach. I have several moisturizers that do help, but not to the degree this stuff does. I saw it advertised and decided to try it and voila! It's super. I like the 'sensitive skin' type particularly because sometimes I'd get frustrated and try to scratch my back with some unfriendly tool, like a fork, and have actually broken the skin more than once. This stuff not only soothes my skin and kills the itch, it seems to promote healing as well. The beneficial effect also lasts a long time. Highly recommended.

This review is from: Sarna Sensitive Lotion, 7.5-Ounce (222 mL) Bottle (Health and Beauty)

Over the past couple of years I have developed very itchy skin in certain spots (perhaps it's eczema), and this product works well to temporarily relieve the itch for a few hours. I switched to it because I really didn't want to continue using the steroid cream prescribed to me, since I read about the side effects of steroids, many of which may be yet unknown.

In the pretty comprehensive research I've done so far, it seems that diet has a huge role to play in itchy skin, as we can easily compromise our ability to fight toxins, etc. if we are not eating right. Perhaps our society's shift to eating what is convenient has contributed to the seeming rise in eczema all around us... can't say for sure, but it makes sense that we need to feed our cells the nourishment they need. I've cut out processed foods, most grains, and processed sugars, and that has helped a lot. In their place I have put natural alternatives (honey, grade B maple syrup, sucanat or stevia in place of sugar, for example), lots of veggies & fruits, and even started juicing in the morning - that's a subject I knew nothing about before October! I can't say I've eaten kale before this month, either, superfood that it is.

Anyway, all that to say that eczema is a bigger problem than just topical, but this product does provide relief, is rated an 8 out of 10 for health on goodguide dot com, and is not too expensive when on sale or with coupons at Walgreens. Works best if I wash the itchy areas with cool water beforehand, wait until they dry pretty well, and then apply this lotion. Sometimes I like to apply Aveeno oatmeal lotion first, to moisturize the skin, then the Sarna to cut out any potential itch for a few hours.

Hope the info helps!
