Heaven In a Jar

I can't keep this secret to myself... I just can't. I would love to but I also promised you lots of beauty reviews and I've been sitting on this one since last night! Well, actually, ever since I first tried it!

Let me first ask you a question. Have you ever had one of those days that you forgot to put on sunscreen (shhh I won't tell!) and then you burned?? Whether it be your face, chest, arms, feet, etc? Yeah, I thought so too. Well I had one of those days on Saturday. Put sunscreen on my face but FORGOT about all the other parts of my body. Good job, I know.

Well, when I was in Sephora, I was searching for a product that would take the burn and itch out of my increasingly annoying sunburn that was found on my chest and arms.

And voila! I found this!



Skyn Iceland Pure Cloud Cream with Biospheric Complex is just exactly what the doctor ordered.

Here is the little schpill from the amazing people at sephora.com:

What it is:
This light-as-air daily moisturizing cream helps provide hyper protection and healing relief for super-sensitive skin.

What it is formulated to do:
Formulated to rescue skin from external aggressors like harsh weather and provide comfort after dermatological procedures and surgeries, Pure Cloud Cream pampers and calms seriously stressed skin.

What else you need to know:
Fragrance-free and dye-free, Pure Cloud Cream offers intense hydration, helps relieve skin irritation and discomfort, and helps heal skin.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Synthetic Fragrances
- Synthetic Dyes
- Petro-Chemicals
- Phthalates
- Triclosan

I started out using this cream on my arms and chest where I got burned and then at home, I tried it on my face. Pure Heaven. This would be a perfect cream to use after getting a facial and your skin is irritated. Calms everything right down! I love it. The pricetag ($75 a jar) is rather high but a little bit goes a long way when using this cream.

And to let you in on a little secret (although it's not little and it's not a secret but whatever). Skyn Iceland makes all of their products in Iceland and when the glaciers melt they get all the yummy minerals and goodness and they put them in their products! How neato burrito is that? Yes I just used that phrase, please take a moment and get over it :)

After using this product on my sunburn since Saturday I can honestly report that it was healed by Tuesday morning with NO peeling. This amazing stuff in a jar is costly but definitely worth it. I also use this now as my night time moisturizer.

If you don't want to spend the money on something you have never tried just go into Sephora and ask one of the beauty consultants to make you a sample of this cream and they will! And then you will LOVE!

Let me know what you think of this product review!
