Burt's Bees saved me from my eczema

I have tried everything from over the counter lotions to prescription lotions from my dermatologist and none of them seemed to soothe my dry, chapped, and bleeding hands.   One of my friends suggested that I go organic and try Burt's Bees products.  I thought why not, nothing else seems to work! So I took her advice and decided to jump on the organic band wagon.  I started with Radiance Body Lotion by Burt's Bees.  Well it not only made my skin shine but it soothed my skin and made the bleeding disappear! Once you open the tube the lotion just oozes out, glides on your skin and immediately soaks into your skin leaving your skin glistening from the light reflecting mica.  The Royal Jelly, sunflower oil moisturizers, and mica make me feel like I am getting soothing massage.  I had actually thought that I would have to move out of Chicago so that I would once again be able to bend my fingers or hands without causing my skin to break open. I think that Burt's Bees is well worth the money and it makes my skin glisten.  I even like to use it on my and arms in the summer for that extra shimmer.

I had also tried Burt's Bees Milk & Honey body lotion but that did not soothe my eczema.  You may need to do some experimenting to find out which product works best for you. 

What is in this product to transform your skin?  Well this is the information that I found on Burt's Bees' website  http://www.burtsbees.com/natural-products/body-moisturizers/radiance-body-lotion.html
"This natural body lotion is specially created to enhance your skin's radiance. It's formulated with Royal Jelly, one of nature’s most nourishing substances, packed with 134 nutrients, including 17 amino acids, and vitamins A, C, D and K, as well as multiple B-vitamins. Sunflower oil moisturizes and mica, a light reflecting mineral, enhances your skin's natural glow. The result is soft, shimmering skin."

I love their products and I have started using their Beeswax Lip Balm and Soap Bark and Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream.  I need to give the Cleansing Cream some time before I can give a proper review but I do love their Beeswax Lip Balm, it has transformed my parched and dry lips into soft and supple kissable lips.

Why not go organic, if you can? These products are affordable and seemed to work for me. Has anyone had any experiences with these products, please feel free to share your thoughts or comments.
