PROTECTING AGAINST INFECTIOUS DISEASES LIKE SWINE FLU INCEASES DRY SKIN COMPLAINTS
At a time when the use of antibacterial products and incessant hand washing has increased to help fight the spread of infectious diseases like Swine Flu, Dermatologists report an increase in dry skin complaints. Loading the skin with antibacterial creams and lotions, and constant immersion in water opens the door to another struggle - preventing and treating cracked dry skin. Well established in many Hospitals a type of skin protection called a Shielding Lotion is now widely available throughout the UK.
Gloves in a Bottle is a non-greasy, non-sticky, hypoallergenic and completely safe hand protecting lotion (NOT a mere barrier cream). Its an ideal skin safeguard not just for medical, nursing and hospital duties, but for every day use in any situation when using products containing antibacterial agents that can irritate the skin and cause or exacerbate dry skin complaints. With the current increased frequency of hand washing its another arm in the fight against the spread of diseases, encouraging more frequent washing and decreasing the incidence of conditions like allergic & irritant itchy sore skin.
Artificial lotions only attempt to replace natural oils with artificial moisture, but they come off every time you wash. On average, nurses have to wash their hands every two and a half minutes. One application of Gloves in a Bottle does not wash off and lasts for at least 4 hours preventing dirt and grime from penetrating the skin. These 'Invisible Gloves' keep moisture-robbing irritants out while helping to retain your skin's natural oils, coming off naturally with exfoliated skin cells.
Gloves in a Bottle absorbs into and bonds with the outer layer of skin (in just 2 minutes) providing a protective 'shield'. It acts as an ideal moisturiser for dry, extremely dry and cracked skin by allowing skin to breath and retain its own natural moisture and oils. When you knew you should be protecting your skin - until now all you could do to alleviate skin disorders, or just plain dry cracked skin, was apply conventional lotions, i.e. artificial moisture replacement systems. Gloves in a Bottle creates a protective shield while retaining the natural moisture from within.
The skin is our largest organ - its primary function is to protect the body from pollutants and toxins. When it loses the ability to do that increased levels of dryness and irritation quickly become apparent. Skin needs the natural oils and moisture it produces to be healthy, but with the stresses our skin is exposed to, these factors are often not present. Dry skin and other skin conditions come about when the protective outer layer is stripped away and irritants and bacteria get into the skin. The reason Shielding Lotions like Gloves in A Bottle are so effective is that they replace the naturally occurring protective barrier and allow the skin to heal from within.
