Burt's Bees Sensitive: My latest BzzAgent Campaign

I've had sensitive skin since I was a kid.  Red, blotchy, dry skin.  There have been lots of products that I have missed out on trying because my skin is just that sensitive. A lot of my family and friends also suffer from sensitive skin, so I was super excited when BzzAgent emailed me about their latest campaign.

Burt's Bees has an awesome new line of skin care products for people just like me! Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solutions for Sensitive Skin.

What is Sensitive Skin?

A formal definition for the condition has yet to be created, but most dermatologists characterize sensitive skin as skin that experiences:

  • Redness

  • Irritation

  • Stinging

  • Dryness

  • Itching

  • Blotchiness

  • Breakouts easily

  • Rashes


What Causes Sensitive Skin?

Environmental Factors:

  • Weather – extreme heat or cold

  • Sun and UV exposure

  • Wind

  • Pollution


Genetics:

  • Sensitive skin can be hereditary for some


You can’t control your genes, but you can care for your sensitive skin naturally. Our new Sensitive Skin Products are 99% natural and are proven to moisturize and cleanse without causing redness or irritation.

Skin Irritants:

  • Products can contain irritating ingredients like:



    • Soap

    • Exfoliants



    • Alcohol

    • Salicylic acid



    • Fragrance



  • Sunburn

  • Dermabrasion

  • Frequent contact with water can cause inflammation of the skin

  • Allergies to ingredients in cosmetics and skin care products


Stress:

  • Skin can become more sensitive and more reactive when stressed

  • Stress triggers the body to release hormones and chemicals that can cause the skin to become irritated


Almost every case of sensitive skin has one symptom in common: Inflammation. That’s why Burt’s Bees Sensitive Skin Care line is crafted with natural ingredients that help soothe and soften your sensitive skin.

Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solutions for Sensitive Skin products contain Rice Extracts, Aloe, Eyebright and White Genepi, all products that support and heal sensitive skin. They are 99% Natural, and area great choice for those of us with sensitive skin. They are: Fragrance-free, Hypo-allergenic, Dermatologist-tested, and Allergy-tested.

I am giving away samples and coupons  of Burt’s Bees Sensitive Skin Daily Moisturizing Cream to readers.  The first 5 readers to leave a comment will receive a sample of the cream and a coupon for $1.00 off as well as a 20 coupon pot luck. I will contact you for your mailing address.

I am a member of Bzzagent, a great WOM (word of mouth) website that helps spread the word on tons of great products.  I received these products for free. The opinions of these products are all mine. I recommend that you check Bzzagent out!

The last few years, have gotten worse with make up being added to my list of things to stay away from: ( I used to use Burt Bee's lip baum but broke out in a terrible rash around my mouth. I'd love to try this product...you never know, right?
