My "Secret Santa" at work
loves bath products. Can you
recommend a suitable gift?
Many of our customers feel that
any DHC product makes a great gift,
but specifically for bathing, luxuriant
DHC Pacific Rim Salt Scrub, with its
blend of six natural oils and exfoliating
crystals, is sure to impress, as is DHC
Mild Soap 3-Piece Set. This boxed
trio of our popular, nutritive soap
is handsomely packaged and comes
with a complimentary soap case.
I wash my hands a lot. What can I do to
keep them from cracking during colder weather?
If you’re constantly washing your hands—which is a great
idea during cold and flu season—try replacing harsh, drying
soaps with DHC Hand Soap. It gives you the antibacterial
germ-fighting power you love, but is gentle on your hands.
Then after washing, while hands are still slightly damp,
apply one of our hand creams. DHC Q10 Hand Cream brings
you hydration plus fine line–fighting coenzyme Q10. If you’re
looking for a soothing cream that utilizes our superstar
ingredient, olive oil, DHC Olive Hand Cream is your answer.
And for a cream that exfoliates those rough, chafed hands
while also moisturizing them, DHC AHA Hand Revitalizer*
smoothes and softens.
*The FDA recommends using a sunscreen and limiting sun
exposure while using any AHA product and for one week after
use is discontinued.
Your Q10 series has done wonders for my
complexion. Is there a similar option for the body?
For suppler, dewier skin on your arms, legs,
and torso, absorptive DHC Q10 Body Gel
contains the same age-defying coenzyme Q10
that you appreciate in our Q10 facial line. It
helps promote elasticity for younger-looking
skin, along with calming aloe and a touch of
fragrant rosewater to tone. It hydrates without
that greasy after-feel you sometimes experience
from other body creams and lotions.
How can I soften my extremely rough heels?
It's essential to exfoliate and moisturize your feet
thoroughly, especially in the summer. During warm weather,
many of us wear sandals and flip-flops and go barefoot around
the house, all of which causes more calluses than usual
to form. Luckily, we have products to help. During your
shower or bath, let your skin soften for a few minutes,
then massage DHC Facial Scrub into your heels in a circular
motion. The exfoliating apricot seed granules in this scrub
help remove dead skin cells effortlessly, bringing you a
step closer to achieving smoothness. After you dry off,
follow with DHC UR Cream. This potent, fast-absorbing oil-free
formula helps skin maintain moisture and prevent chapping.
How does Less Hair Skin Cream work?
This moisturizing cream is loaded with phytoestrogen botanicals
such as soybean, saw palmetto, and butcher's broom. It's
a godsend for anyone with obvious, unwanted hair. Don't
worry, this cream is not a depilatory. It won't burn off
your body hair or leave behind a chemical smell. On the
contrary, it's an ideal alternative. Its moisture-binding
qualities help keep your skin soft, plus it features fragrant
botanicals, including peppermint and lavender. Apply DHC
Less Hair Skin Cream every day to help achieve the look
of less body hair. Keep in mind that it is not recommended
for sensitive areas.
I appreciate the foaming action of shower gels, but prefer
bar soaps. Any suggestions?
Many shower gels do yield a more immediate concentration
of cleansing foam compared with traditional bars of cake
soap. However, DHC Q10 Body Soap creates an almost instantaneous,
luxurious lather that is surprisingly rich‹enough
to rival that of liquid body washes. Plus, it is enriched
with age-defying coenzyme Q10 and nourishing hydrators that
help revitalize your skin.
Now that winter is almost over, how can
I make my feet look presentable again?
Yay! Spring is here. We can put away our closed-toe shoes
and enjoy open-toed sandals, wedges, and flip-flops! For
many of us, cold weather means feet hidden away in winter
boots and shoes, which makes us less likely to treat ourselves
to pedicures. Thank goodness DHC has the products to get
your tootsies back on track. I can't praise DHC Pacific
Rim Salt Scrub enough—its scent says it all. The combination
of luxuriously fragrant botanical oils mixed with salt crystals
smoothes rough heels and soothes torn cuticles. At night,
slather your feet with DHC UR Cream. Synthetically derived
urea hydrates, softens, and exfoliates tough calluses.
I'm interested in using Hydrating Ceramide Body Cream, but I don't know
what ceramides are. Are they greasy?
No, ceramides are not greasy. DHC Hydrating Ceramide Body Cream is one
of my favorite DHC products, especially because it has a lightweight
texture and it absorbs quickly. Ceramides are a part of
the skin's natural moisturizing factor (known in the industry as
"NMF"). They are intercellular lipids that help lock moisture into skin
and help skin maintain a healthy protective barrier. As we age, our
natural levels of ceramide begin to deplete, causing our skin to look
and feel thirsty. Hydrating Ceramide Body Cream uses botanical ceramide
from soybeans to combat uncomfortable flakiness and dryness and leave
skin feeling restored. A touch of menthol offers a pleasant cooling
sensation.
