I began researching skincare, makeup, and family care the last two years when my kids skin was reacting to so many things that were in contact with their skin. I was at a lost and spent so much money on so many products hoping they wouldn't have a reaction. I thought it was just our sunscreen when it all began but it got to the point of not being able to recognize which product it was. We were experiencing reactions from soap, body wash, lotions, sunscreens, and more. I was at a lost. Many doctor appointments at the dermatologist and lots of prescription creams later … [Read more...]

Homeschool
