I’m saying it again and will keep on saying forever (I
hope) that I love Pharmaceuticals visits! I get to know about so many other
good products which aren’t advertised and are lying in a neat shelf.
Dermocalm lotion is also from one of my those
visits. When I saw the words for ‘Dry, Irritated skin’, I bought it at that
very time since I was suffering from dry and flaky skin at that time. I applied
it and saw no change in my skin condition. I thought that it would take time to
see its result so I applied it for 3 consecutive days but it still didn’t
soothe my dry, flaky skin. After that, I used my successful beauty formula only
to soothe my skin and I was alright.
Since my dry skin was in control, I
decided to use it in my morning schedule i.e. before going to college and it
worked like a charm. It has a light peachy pink tint to it, like Lacto calamine
but this one gives your skin a glow and the effect is also very natural. It
also covers my blemishes like minutely but I do like the effect. I skipped
using loose powder/compact after it. I had gone in morning at around 11 pm and
I returned around 5 pm and man! My skin was still fresh ignoring the little
oily T-zone. So, it’s working pretty well in this area. Also, after using it for continuous 2 weeks,
my skin is really glowing and I haven’t incorporated any new changes. So, Yay! And,
I hope it works good in summers too when I have super duper oily skin.
In short, It’s :
-
Inexpensive.
-
Good quantity.
-
Hygienic packaging.
-
Gives skin a glow because of the peachy
pink tint.
-
Works nicely as a tinted moisturizer on
combination/dry skin.
-
Has never caused any breakouts on my
acne skin.
-
Doesn’t soothe dry, itchy skin.
-
It contains parabens (which isn’t a
problem for me).
-
Gives glow to skin.
-
Very good oil control on dry/combination
skin.
-
Suitable for sensitive skin
I’m liking it very much as a tinted moisturizer in
these winter days and hope it fares well in summers too. Like previous, I may
update this review or write another review on it to write on how it fares in
sultry summer days.
