Diane Lai – All Natural Products for Soft Skin

February 8, 2012 by Deanna Tousignant Leave a Comment

I am really finicky about scents. Most scented products, from household cleaners, to shampoo and body wash, make me feel nauseous. I have been searching for a gentle, all natural body wash to use on my daughters. I have tried a couple of different supposedly “unscented” products out in the past few months, but they smelled awful. I want to use something gentle and chemical free on my girls that doesn’t make me gag. I had sort of given up on the search when I was offered a chance to test out a few products from Diane Lai.

Diane Lai Fresh

 

I was really impressed with the Diane Lai Fresh Body Wash. It’s an all-natural plant based daily use body wash. It is hypo-alergetic, gentle enough to use on my little ones skin, and leaves the skin feeling clean and soft. But to me the best part of all was it doesn’t stink. It just has a sort of light organic scent to it that doesn’t linger. I’ve been using this on both myself and the girls at bathtime and I like it.
Diane Lai Soothe
I also had a chance to try out the Diane Lai Soothe Spot Treatment. The website says it’s “ideal for chapping cracking and roughness due to dryness”. Ok, now don’t laugh – I have a problem spot on my bod that I like to call “Nurser’s Knee”.  Between the two kids I have been nursing a babe daily for about four and a half years. I sit in the rocker, I hold the now twenty-some pound toddler on my lap, with my legs crossed. My one knee always ends up on the bottom, because that’s somehow the most comfy position. That knee has developed a rough dry patch that corresponds to where the other leg always lays across it. Some days it is dry and cracked to the point that it hurts. I’ve tried rubbing lanolin or a couple of different lotions on it to no effect. I used the Diane Lai’s Soothe Spot Treatment on my “Nurser’s Knee” and it was incredibly soothing. I was amazed when the dry patch actually healed up within a few applications.

 

Diane Lai Rejuvenate

The other Diane Lai product that I tested out was the Rejuvenate Daily Moisturizer.  I’m not big on lotions, and I’m not into rubbing a daily moisturizer into my skin. It’s just not my thing. However, my four year old absolutely loves having lotion rubbed into her skin. It’s a taste she developed from visits over at her grandmother’s house. I am sort of loathe to rub lotion into my kids skin, as typically it’s full of so much junk and chemicals. I’m very aware of the fact that the skin is an organ and it absorbs whatever it comes in contact with. Diane Lai’s Rejuvenate Daily Moisturizer is a product I am ok with rubbing all over my little one.  It’s all natural and organic; made with things like grape seed oil, Shea butter, olive oil, soybean sterols, lavender oil, kernel oil, wheat germ oil, and jojoba seed oil.  It also meets two other really important considerations, it doesn’t stink and it’s not greasy.

I hate soaps, I hate lotions, I usually tolerate them at best.  So you have to understand that for me to say I actually like a skin product is a big deal, and overall I was very impressed with the entire Diane Lai product line. I also love that Diane Lai is a Canadian product and is made right here in Canada.
