Since having children there are certain things that have changed about me (and if my husband is to be believed not all for the better apparently! Haha!  But I digress…yes, one line in and I’ve already managed to go wildly off topic.  Now that is a record even for me!)

Ahem….so…as I was saying….one of the things that I am more conscious and aware of, than I ever was pre-motherhood, are the chemicals that we come into contact with on a regular basis, sometimes without even realising it.

Wherever possible, I try to limit my family’s exposure to chemicals, and this means paying particularly close attention to what I allow them to eat but also what I allow them to place on their skin.  I don’t want to get into what toxic chemicals are being used in some skin products (that may be a topic for another day) but suffice it to say that research has proven that your skin absorbs virtually any chemical that touches it, so it pays to bare this in mind when purchasing skin care products.

So when I was recently given the opportunity to trial and review Mum’s Secret soothe and repair cream I jumped at the chance. The fact that it is free from parabens, petrochemicals, mineral oils, nut oils, fragrance and parfum, just to name a few really appealed to me. It is made from herbal extracts, pure plant oils and skin enhancing vitamins – Bingo!

I loved that the cream was has multi-purposes and is suitable for my whole family – so no need for multiple bottles and tubs of lotions and potions.  It is a lightly textured, non greasy cream that rubs into the skin easily and it has done wonders for my 2 year old daughters rough dry skin patches.  We have also used it very effectively for a bout of nappy rash which occurred as a result of my daughter scoffing a large quantity of grapes!  The cream cooled and calmed the skin in the affected area and made my daughter more comfortable.  It also acted as a barrier to stop the skin from being irritated further while it healed.

Mum’s Secret, is in fact, especially formulated for sensitive skin conditions.  If your child has eczema check out this fantastic in-depth review written by Natalie Birt at Mummy Smiles, titled ‘Mum’s Secret – A Review for Lucy’s Eczema,’ in which she details and documents with images the healing effect that Mum’s Secret had on her daughter’s eczema.
