Homopathic Solutions for Acnes Spots



Weleda Aknedoron Cleansing Lotion, £5.25, available Dolphin House Shop 01273 721 720.


Weleda Aknedoron Purifying Lotion, £5.25, available Dolphin House Shop 01273 721 720.

Just discovered Weleda's Aknedoron range, consisting of two products, Cleansing Lotion and Purifying Lotion. Designed for treating spots. I've been using it along side with Dr. Hauschka to treat spots, and it seems to have made a great deal of difference, even Amanda, our Dr. Hauschka eustachian notices. The main homeopathic ingredient in the Purifying Lotion is Sulphur, known for treating chronic acne aggravated by warmth and washing. The Purifying Lotion contains calendula, lavender, chamomile, sage, and thyme. The Cleansing Lotion has a fresh citrus scent, it cleanses deeply, but gently without stripping the skin;s natural protective layer.

When I tired it, there seem to be immediate effect. Overnight, the spots had shrunk dramatically, and the redness and irritation was gone. If you've been struggling to deal with acne, this is a must-try. Conventional creams just seem to dry out the area and the problem always just comes back, possibly worsened with even more oily skin.

Lavish Yourself in Body Silk



Dr. Hauschka Body Silk, £20, available Dolphin House Shop 01273 721 720.

I recently started using the Dr. Hauschka Body Silk. Truly a beautiful product to use. It can be use all over the body, on the feet to keep them dry, used as a deodorant under the arms, in your hair if you want to pass on washing your hair for a day. Or use it on your face or baby, it is just that gentle, and a pleasure to use. It leaves a light scent of roses. The powder is made from silk, rice starch, gentian, oak and sage extracts. Silk absorbs excess moisture, and has anti-bacterial properties. It keeps me dry and deodorized, what more can you ask for?
