Dermatitis and Ecezma are distressing conditions for adults, so when
your baby or toddler suffers, it is a continual cycle of itching and
scratching and they are too little to understand that they must not
scratch. The skin reddens and bleeds and eventually it may become
infected, but still they scratch!
For parents, the problem eats away at the heart of the family as you
constantly pay attention to your child’s skin and suffering many
sleepless nights as your baby cries and cries. You are constantly
applying creams and ointments and trips to the doctors.
According to The National Eczema Society as many as one in twelve
adults and one in five children suffer from eczema. This common
condition is made worse by the chemical cocktail of preservatives,
fragrances and harsh emulsifying agents in many modern skincare
products. In response to the growing need for a product range for people with
eczema, sensitive skin, allergic skin, psoriasis & acne in mind
Pure and Gentle SkinCare was created by the Founder of TalkHealth,
Deborah Mason, a company established since 2000, which consists of a
group of support and information web sites covering various health
indications, and in association with Lisa Clunie. The first web site
www.talkeczema.com was launched in October 2000. The site was created
by Deborah Mason from her own personal experience of eczema. The
TalkEczema web site is now one of the leading support and information
sites globally.
Our products contain a high percentage of natural and active
ingredients, and many are free from the most common skin irritants.
Pure and Gentle.com is an on-line shop which provides a wide range of
skincare products for men, women, teenagers, children and babies who
are trying to cope with the day today misery of eczema, psoriasis,
acne, sensitive and allergic skin. This unique website not only offers
detailed descriptions of each product with directions for use but a
comprehensive ingredients list for every single product. So customers
know what is in each and every product before they make their purchase.
We research the products carefully making sure that products
contain NO synthetic additives, preservatives, or petrochemicals where
possible and are free from of the known skin irritants.
Pure and Gentle SkinCare LLP was founded by Deborah Mason and Lisa
Clunie, they share a common skin problem - eczema - luckily only mildly.
Deborah's was mainly contact induced, but her maininspiration for
wanting to set up the Pure and Gentle Skincare came from her daughter
Alice who, at 5 months old, developed severe atopic eczema. With the
help and support of family and friends, the advice and treatment
provided by health professionals and others, and an enormous amount of time seeking out
suitable products, Alice, now aged 8, has skin that is now under
control.
While Deborah had problems with Alice, Lisa on the other hand has
very sensitive skin on her face. Many facial products would aggravate
her skin bringing her eczema up in patches. Certain creams would cause
an instant, adverse reaction and even some make-up would cause
irritation. From when Lisa was a teenager until now, she has to use non-perfumed products; she often gains confidence in a product and then the manufacturer changes an ingredient without drawing attention to this on the packaging, and a reaction happens. Now her eldest daughter, Rebecca aged 11, is also reacting to certain soaps and skincare products too. Hence Pure and Gentle Skincare was launched.
All our products contain a high level of natural and active
ingredients but are not always organic! We have found that just because
the product is labelled ‘organic’ it may not be telling the whole
truth. Unlike food, organic skincare products do not have to match the
stringent codes of organic guidelines. Many manufacturers may have
included a tiny percentage of organic ingredients to their products,
but according to Trading Standards at present there are no regulations
on the percentage of organic ingredients to classify the product being
labelled as ‘Organic’. The Soil Association are hoping that this will
change soon so that people will know what they are getting in their
skincare products as well as their weekly shopping basket.
So at Pure and Gentle SkinCare we research the product thoroughly
to ensure it has both natural ingredients and healing benefits. There
is a specialist on board to answer patient questions and queries about
some of the products, they are there to help customers and pass on new
product information. At Pure and Gentle SkinCare the customer service
is impeccable, with many customers coming back again and again. We are
constantly looking at new research and products on the market and we
build relationships with our suppliers and customers with feedback and
queries.
Our products include DermaSilk a range of therapautic clothing range
which helps reduce the itching and scratching associated with eczema
and promotes healing. It allows the skin to breathe, regulating skin
temperature and maintaining the skin’s moisture balance and helps
control bacteria and fungi that cause infected skin conditions.
For moisturising we sell DermaSalve which is the first ever
moisturising cream range that is free of all known irritants. It is
light to touch, rapidly absorbed into the skin and so leaves no greasy
residue. This product is being promoted and backed by The Bounty Group
and also Doctor Chris Steel from This Morning is a great believer in
this product.
