Natural Neem benefits and GIVEAWAY

neem lotion
A few years ago, Our Daily Green's family was suffering from eczema. If you've ever suffered from dry and itchy skin, there are no lengths you won't try to find relief. We began a quest to find relief and that quest led us to a botanical product called neem. We found both soap and lotion with neem extract in it and were amazed by the relief.

neem soapNeem is the olive-like fruit of a tree that grows wild in India and has anti-fungal and medicinal properties. We've used neem soap and lotion whenever we have a skin flare up and it gives us immediate relief. We were so impressed, we've recommended it to several folks over the past few years. (published back in October of 2010).

This review is from: THERANEEM MAX CLEANSING BAR 
Stress wreaks havoc on my skin and results in assorted rashes and hives, but for over a year I've had patches of eczema on the back of my knees and my inner elbows. I bought this soap to combat a case of hives after my two rounds with prednisone (which provided relief when I was taking it, but the rashes would reappear when I finished the script). After some research, I figured I had nothing to lose by giving neem a shot. I also ordered the lotion for when I couldn't shower. Between the two of them I'm covered. Yes, yes, the smell is a bit funky (peanuty), but it doesn't linger after the final rinse. My rash stopped itching but the unexpected surprise was that my eczema has vanished! If you suffer from any sort of ongoing skin condition, I cannot recommend neem enough.

The last time we went to re-order neem, we discovered a blogger opportunity and since we already were a fan and customer we eagerly joined the group to promote the benefits of neem. Organix South is a US supplier of several neem herbal products and we had the chance to sample a new one, the TheraNeem® Nail & Cuticle Oil pen. We received our pen a few weeks ago and a member of our household is trying it for stubborn nail fungus. Generally, nail fungus takes at least 6-8 weeks to be cured (the amount of time to grow a new nail), so we do not have any results to report yet. However, based on prior experience with neem, we are confident that this nail and cuticle oil pen will be effective.

If you would like to try the TheraNeem® Nail & Cuticle Oil pen, please leave a comment for us on this post. On June 1, we will select a winner from the comments received. For additional entries, follow Organix South on Facebook and Twitter, and follow Our Daily Green on Facebook. Please leave a new comment for each follow to receive credit. The giveaway is limited to residents in the United States who are 18 years of age or older.

If you are interested in any other neem products, Organix South has a special 25% discount code for readers of Our Daily Green. Just enter 25OFF0512 to receive 25% off of your entire purchase. The code is good until May 31st.

Now - this is the first I've heard of it - always had very dry and sensitive skin - to the point that it cracks in the cold ( even here and now where it's not that cold).
I'll have to think about this one.

A few other hints that may help your skin...

*A soap detox. http://ourdailygreenlife.blogspot.com/2011/01/no-soap-green.html
Take a week and shower only with water and a washcloth. Read that post for more info.

*apple cider vinegar rinse.
