Has anyone got their free sample yet? I had an email the other day suggesting my application had failed.

same here.

I did get a tube from Boots though - it was supposed to be 4.99 or something but had third off. Its OK cream, but does nothing for my patch of 'bad' skin which I thought it would help fix - gp prescribed lotriderm which does work if I remember to apply it once in a blue moon, or even twice a day like I am supposed to.

In some repsects the cream stays on the skin longer than my vaseline hand cream which sinks in, if that makes sense

Sorry to hear that you haven't been able to get your free samples. Also that it's not worked as well as expected for you Annette. We're finding (having used it for a week now) that it's great on general dry skin including cradle cap. There are still a couple of very stubborn patches on Joseph that aren't shifting (they need hydrocortisone).

I have to say that for my cracked/chapped hands it has worked wonders - my hands are unrecognisable :D . Also very good on feet too! I hope others have some success :oops: :oops: .

Oh no what a shmae none of us got any, I ,ight have a look out in the shops, but I'd rather try a sample first. I have pots full of cream I've bought thinking they would be the one and they don't work or sting so much they never get used again.

Kayleigh also has eczema, and we are getting the Elena's nature stuff (perscribed from the GP) instead of using hydrocortisone. It works wonders, but is hideously expensive if you were to have to buy it yourself. Just thought worth mentioning if you haven't heard of it.

Thank you Rae,

No I hadn't heard of it and yes I see what you mean about the cost! Which cream do you use?

Thanks

I'm SO glad to hear that's not just me!!!! :shock:

Currently I'm finding that Lush's helping hands cream is doing quite well though...

I'm glad you've found something :D I've never tried anything from Lush though, I find the smell outside so overpowering that I walk past quickly nevermind going in!
