Winners, Problem Skin, 2023

Gold

Butter Be Kind, Your Hero, Baby
“I liked the packaging, the simplicity of the branding and messaging, along with the affirmations. There was a joy to it all that made me look forward to trying the product. It smooths into skin easy, absorbing quickly, leaving a glossy sheen, which was not sticky or too greasy. It worked well as a barrier as well as soothing rashes. I noticed a difference to arms, where my skin can get bumpy. This body butter delivers all that it promises — to protect, moisturise and smooth skin. I don’t think it exaggerates: its message is simple and it simply delivers.”

Odylique, Repair Lotion
“I applied this all over and was struck by how soft skin felt after it had absorbed. Chronically dry rough knees and elbows were magically softened — I’ve never had a moisturiser get such results so fast! It was soothing on my guttate psoriasis patches, hydrating and calming them, and they disappeared with continued use. What a powerhouse of a product. It continued to perform so well — speedily slapped on post-swim, chlorine-stressed skin, I was soft as a baby. Eczema flares were soothed, something I’ve found often unachievable with creams when skin is inflamed. This stuff is fabulous.”

 

Silver

Balmonds Skincare, Skin Salvation
“Natural, earthy and hemp like smell which I liked; texture that melted from a balm to a oily buttery ointment. My eczema was definitely less angry, red, flaky, itchy and much more calm and not as raised. The dryness eased, the redness changed to pink, it wasn’t as scaly and raised and I didn’t feel as itchy at night that I normally do. Delivered on all its claims.”

Casa Mencarelli, Sea Buckthorn Serum – Sole E Mare
“Rich deep amber oil. Absorbed well into skin, leaving it smooth and hydrated, nourished and soft. The condition of the skin on my face has definitely improved after month long testing. It is supple, smooth, less dry in areas, fine lines have lessened, and it’s no longer so red and reactive. A great product.”

INIKA Organic, Bakuchiol Serum Natural Retinol Alternative
“Straight away I felt that my skin was softer and smoother where I had used this serum. After a month, I am completely sold. My skin is smoother and slightly plumped, my dark circles are reduced and my skin is more radiant. What I was really satisfied with was how soft and hydrated my skin felt, with fewer breakouts.”

Labrains, Dermatreat Skin Regenerating Cream
“Almost mousse-like texture; rich, light, easy to apply. After a month I noticed that the skin on my neck, which is often prone to irritation, itchiness and patches of eczema, had completely cleared up. I was very impressed. Promises to soothe, moisturise and protect dry and irritated skin, and it definitely delivered.”

Obvs Skincare, Intensive Skin Recovery Cream
“This was a miracle worker to me. After using steroid all my life this has gave my skin the respite that it needed, especially with steroid withdrawal. The eczema around my eyes, was red, peeling, burning and itching and after using for a couple of days it completely disappeared. I cannot tell you the relief that I experienced. It’s helped change my life.”

 

Bronze

Amaranthine, Face Oil
“I really felt that I was feeding my skin with lots of great nutrients. Skin was super soft and glowing after application and I could apply other products almost instantly. During the trial my skin felt and looked healthy with a clear complexion. I was really pleased with the results.”

Beeinspired, Propolis Cream Nut Free
“I felt as though it made a huge difference to both my child’s and my irritated skins, helping not only the eczema affected skin, but also the awfully dry skin which affects us both all over. The scaly skin on my child’s trunk and limbs was where it made the biggest difference – he isn’t complaining of constant itching now and although it is still dry, it is much more manageable.”

Jeunvie Natural Skincare, Soothing Balm
“Pleasantly surprised how easily it works into the skin without leaving it feeling greasy. I have problem elbows, they are so often dry and can become sore. This balm was soothing even on first application. It can be difficult to find a cream or balm that’s both effective and gentle on my psoriasis; the skin on my elbow is much less sore, no longer red or excessively dry.”

Smartass Beauty Ltd, Wrinkle Rewind Super Serum
“The overall health of my skin has greatly improved, with a visible reduction in the fine lines around my eyes. My skin overall looks brighter and clearer, with my acne improving significantly and scarring beginning to fade. I am shocked by how healthy my skin looks after using this product for the last four weeks.”

Todburn Soaps, Plum & Argan Beauty Balm
“I have seen improvements to eczema patches, it continues to be a great scent-free moisturiser — good for dry patches of skin — I very much enjoy the soft feel and easy melt of the balm … holds up to claims of being a multi purpose product, and can easily be used as cleanser/moisturiser/lip balm”
