Mari-Golg Barrier Skin Cream for Chemo Side Effects
$
Description:
For centuries, calendula has helped provide salvation to a whole host of sensitive skincare indications. Interestingly, it is not widely used in the United States for dry skin and hard to heal cracked or chafed skin and rash. With this in mind and having experienced these uncomfortable skin conditions, we developed MARI-GOLD to provide comfort as well as soothe chapped lips due to chemotherapy, and very dry hands and feet that can become cracked and sensitive. It is also helpful for others who may suffer from Hand-foot syndrome (also called palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia) a side effect of some chemotherapy drugs that can cause redness, swelling and blistering on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet.
Unique formula originates from our My Girls' Radiation Burn Care made with Distilled Water, Super Hydrating Urea, Organic *Coconut Oil, *Olive Oil, *Calendula Flower, Beeswax, *Avocado Oil, *Jojoba Oil, *Rose Damascena Petal, *Cocoa Butter, Vitamin E, Panthenol Vitamin B5, *Cocoa Butter, *Honey, Allantoin and Beta Carotene.
We use 15% Urea powder in MARI-GOLD to take on dry, cracked and rough skin conditions that may result from medical treatments, as well as from eczema and psoriasis. Urea is made synthetically in a lab and is not animal-derived. Urea creams and lotions are used to treat a variety of conditions associated with dry, rough, or scaling skin. In particular, it’s commonly used to treat conditions of the feet like:
-
Calluses
-
Corns
-
Nail problems
Urea creams and lotions have been used as a successful treatment for skin conditions below and is recommended by Oncologists for Hand and Foot Syndrome #HFS:
