Skincare Saturday: Karen Dermo Cosmetic Phytoplankton Moisturizing Lotion

This post is sponsored by Karen.

As we move from the winter months into spring and summer here in Canada, I always find myself switching over to a thinner moisturizer. I tend to stick to thick body creams throughout the winter, but come the warmer months, I want something that’s going to keep my skin happy, healthy and hydrated, but that also won’t feel heavy on my skin.

So when I was introduced to Karen Dermo Cosmetic Phytoplankton Moisturizing Lotion (distributed by Canadian brand Blugenics Innovations in Sackville, New Brunswick) that promised me that phytoplankton was the new superfood that could nourish my skin, I was definitely interested.

The Karen brand of phytoplankton is approved by Health Canada and is clinically proven to infuse new life into skin and eliminate the toughest skin conditions. The phytoplankton (algae) is packed with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, and the lotion is hypoallergenic as well as paraben free. In case you’re curious, the Karen brand of phytoplankton is grown in a closed environment facility which is free of pollution and contaminants (so rest assured they’re not scraping it out of the actual ocean!).

I don’t have psoriasis, rosacea or eczema, which this lotion has been clinically tested to help (most people saw a 95% improvement in their skin quality over a four month dermatologist supervised study), but I do have oddly itchy skin on my shins. The Karen Dermo Cosmetic Phytoplankton Moisturizing Lotion  helped to relieve that itching sensation and after about two weeks of straight use I’d say that the desire to scratch at my shins is totally gone! I did try it out once on my face just to see how it would go and I wasn’t in love with it that way – this was definitely a body moisturizer for me!

So if you’re looking for a healing agent in your body lotion that is also not a super thick cream and absorbs easily, you may just want to take a look into this one!

Karen Dermo Cosmetic Phytoplankton Moisturizing Lotion will set you back $39.99 CAD for a 100 ml tube. And if you don’t like it? Don’t worry – it comes with a 30 day money back guarantee! You can purchase it at Rexall, Guardian, London Drugs, PharmChoice, Pharmasave, Shoppers Drug Mart and online at karenphytoplankton.com.
