WHAT USERS ARE SAYING

Excerpts from letters by Marly Skin® users.

Mrs. Beate R. (47), Bochum:
... I have been a hairdresser for 25 years, but my skin problems became so severe over the last years that I was at the point of giving up my job and take up retraining.Everything my dermatologist prescribed for me has had only short-term effects. At the end, the cortisone concentrations I used got stronger and stronger......I found out about Marly Skin at the training center. After the skin head healed, it worked fantastically well. In can work in my job again – thanks to Marly Skin. I strongly advice all my colleagues to protect their skin with Marly Skin at the earliest possible point in time to make sure they don’t experience what I did....

Herbert S. (52 ), Karlsruhe:
.....I am a plasterer and I’ve been working on building sites for over 30 years. I’ve always had problems with plaster dust, mainly on my head. Even when wearing a hat for work, I suffered skin damage all over my head, especially at the neck, underneath the eyes and ears and on my scalp, with the effect that I had to stop working – almost every four weeks - and wait until things had healed off . Recently, the intervals became shorter and shorter. A works doctor told me to use Marly Skin. That’s truly fantastic! I’ve had no more skin problems since using Marly Skin. The best thing about it is that the skin is dry and grease-free immediately, which means I can use Marly Skin on all parts of my head without any problems. I’ve used Marly Skin for 6 months now and I’ve had absolutely no problems ever since ....

Klaus-Peter W. (31J), Siegen:
...I am an enthusiastic cyclist. Cycling is my hobby, but ever since I can remember I’ve had problems between my legs when cycle riding, especially in the summer when I’m sweating. I’ve tried everything: changing my trousers, applying cream, buying a new saddle – nothing helped over any length of time. Sometimes it was so bad that I had to take a break from cycling and wait until the skin had healed again.A friend gave me Marly Skin recently. I apply it before going on a ride, let it take effect for about 5 minutes, and I’ve had no more problems ever since....Cycling in winter used to give me a cracked skin on my hands. I also use Marly Skin and my skin is absolutely OK now! Everybody should use it....

Ursula B. (28), Munich:
...to tell you the truth, I’m close to tears when I look out the window and see my three-year-old son play happily in the sandpit with the other children.It wasn’t always like that. My son has neurodermitis and there was no way he could play outside. As soon as he made contact with sand, earth or grass, his skin virtually exploded. The skin swelled up, cracked, and opened up in places.The only thing that seemed to help were massive doses of cortisone cream.I can still see his eyes when he looked down into the yard where the other children played and he had to stay inside – as a mother, it almost broke my heart.Until our family doctor gave us Marly Skin. I apply it to my son from head to toe twice every day. He likes it because it doesn’t feel greasy.Really great, this skin protector. Ever since then he has had no more symptoms!I can’t tell you how happy I am about Marly Skin....

Ingeborg G. (41), Paderborn:
...I work in a snack bar: deep-fry oil, fat, spices....exposed to that smell all day long. Imagine that no shower helps in the evening to get rid of the smell....Thank goodness, there is now Marly Skin. I rub it on my arms, my face and above all in my hair twice every day, I take a shower in the evening and get rid of the smell! Thanks to Marly Skin!

Peter G. (32), Alzey:
...I am a farmer and winegrower. Ever since I was a child, I’ve had a very sensitive skin – on my whole body because I’m very white-skinned and I have reddish-blond hair.Handling fertilizers, plant sprays, machine oil, the dust on the fields in summer, contact with plant sap – all this have always given me trouble. Even when working with protective gloves, a mask and goggles, I still have severe problems on head and neck, the arms and the armpits: itching, blisters and small wounds.Then someone gave me Marly Skin – and everything disappeared – like a miracle, yes, it seems like a miracle to me because I’ve had these complaints since childhood and I even toyed with the idea of changing my job. But I love working in the open air, I would simply perish in an office.I feel on top of the world since I use Marly Skin. Everything’s vanished. After all, you can use it all over your body, something you couldn’t do with an ointment because it would rub off immediately on your clothes....

Klaus S. (36), Hamburg:
...I play bassoon and clarinet in an orchestra. Whenever I must use a new mouthpiece, I get a terrible rash on my lips.My brother is a pharmacist and he gave me Marly Skin – absolutely great, I’m redeemed. I’ve also told colleagues who have similar problems to use Marly Skin One colleague who plays the trumpet also had the same problems as I had. Marly Skin also helped him. Thank you for making this fantastic product....

Petra H. (22), Bad Homburg
...I have a very light and sensitive skin which responds at once as soon as use I use makeup or cosmetics. This is really awful because I want to use makeup like all the other girls of my age. My doctor told me to use just water, not even soap!He recently gave me a small sample of Marly Skin, that skin protection foam. He said I should try it out and see how I’d respond to makeup.I am the happiest person in the world, I could hug the inventor of Marly Skin! No more problems: I can use makeup like all the others, and the allergic reactions are a thing of the past!
I once forgot to use Marly Skin – and the same problems were: my whole face full of pimples and blisters, skin reddening and an unpleasant itch!What’s so great is that the skin is dry immediately after application and that makeup, powder, lipstick and eye liner adhere without any problems....

Dr. Gabriel K. (52), Berlin
...I am a surgeon and I usually work for six hours and more every day wearing latex gloves. All these years I’ve had no problems whatsoever, except that my skin got very dry and cracked. That wasn’t really surprising: constant washing and disinfecting the hands is extremely stressful on your skin....

...I’ve experienced massive skin problems for about the last six months: the skin on my hands cracks, I have white rims at the nail beds, small eczemas and permanent pruritus. My hands are always red.You wouldn’t believe the things I’ve tried! Other gloves, creaming the hands every night, etc. Nothing really helped – on the contrary, things got worse at times. Every six months or so I had to take a fortnight’s break to allow my skin to recover. There was no doubt my problems were caused by the gloves. As soon as I stooped wearing them for a while, things got better...There is nothing else I can wear or put on either. If I apply cream before going to the sterile section, the stuff gets washed off by the surgical rinse and the disinfectant. And I cannot put on anything after disinfection ... a vicious circle!Then I read about Marly Skin and ordered some straightaway.I underwent treatment with cortisone cream and discontinued for a week. Since that time I regularly apply Marly Skin in the morning before going to work and at lunch break. Great! No more complaints. Many of my colleagues and theater nurses now use Marly Skin regularly. It’s an absolute must for everyone who has to wear gloves every day. And it is usually only a question of time before everyone suffers from the same complaints as I did...

Jennifer R., (42), Oberammergau:
...I have some very old and precious family jewelry which I love to wear. Over the last years I got a severe rash round my neckline, accompanied by skin reddening and blisters. Even my wrists and ears are now affected. So I stopped wearing the jewelry quite some time ago – in fact, no jewelry at all for fear of getting the same complaints again.A colleague told me of Marly Skin, I tried it out, and what should I say? It worked wonders! I am over the moon. One application is usually sufficient for the whole day and sometimes also for the whole night....

Klaus W., (41), Hildesheim
...I am an enthusiastic dressage rider and I suddenly got allergic to leather gloves, later against anything made of leather.You can imagine what this means for a dressage rider! I tried everything, nothing helped. The only remedy was to avoid contact with anything made of leather...

Someone recommended Marly Skin, I tried it out and I’ve been free of complaints ever since. It is also very economical in use, it’s wonderful that it is not greasy at all and I can apply it to any part of my body...Important: I must remember to use it, otherwise things start all over again...

Prof. A.K., (61), Hamburg
...We work with epoxy resin at our art college, which means we work the molds with grinding and milling implements. Although we wear protective glasses, gloves ad masks, it is inevitable that most of us develop allergic reactions, sometimes very violent, underneath the eyes, at the hairline, behind the ears and in the folds of the skin – and that affects all of us! It’s only a matter of time. Unfortunately, there is no help – the only thing we can do is stop and take a break to allow the skin to recover. Creams and ointments are either ineffective, or they are unsuitable for skin contact for any length of time. Applying the cream every half hour or so would be a solution.We celebrate the day someone gave us Marly Skin. I think it was the works doctor.Great to apply (in the evening and at mid-day), the skin stays dry, above all in the face, the complaints have disappeared, no greasy sensation.A great product and a real help!
