Skincando Review Combat-Ready Skin Balm Review and Giveaway

Skincando was born through 8 years research based on healing, repairing and protecting the skin naturally. Skincando Combat Ready Skin Balm is a highly concentrated skin salve that relieves and heals damaged and inflamed skin. Practical uses are for severe dryness, minor abrasions, post-shaving burn, diaper rash, scars, bug bites and sun/wind burn. Sara Damelio is a licensed esthetician, and has been working and perfecting this cream, all on her own, by hand! And when you receive your balm, yes, it is still made by her hands!

Combat Ready Balm

Sara had a customer who sent her husband, in Iraq, Combat-Ready Balm. He had some nasty sand flea bites, and once applied realized that the welts had gone down quickly. Once Sara learned of this information she started taking donations to get this balm sent to troops all over! She has been doing this for three years, and all you have to do is donate $12.50 and she will make sure the troops get one of her, nearly priceless, $25 jars of Skincando Combat Ready Skin Balm. In Addition, $2 of every sale goes to support Ft. Bliss Family Readiness Group.

I can attest to this working on bug bites. I was recently “testing/reviewing” a product for bug bites for Prissy Green, and well let’s just say, it had less then favorable results. I had huge mosquito bites, so I applied the balm, and the next day, they were small and didn’t itch at all! I have plenty of remedies that I try for bug bites, but this really has proven to be the best!  It really shouldn’t be a surprise, with nourishing apricot oil, black spruce, black tea and coconut oil!

Craig has been doing some yard work, and came in the other day with nasty blisters.  I immediately gave him the Combat Ready Balm, and I am not lying when I say that next day, those blisters were not red anymore.  Of course they weren’t healed over, but the stinging pain had gone away.  It is a miracle cream!

The Skincando line also includes the Combat-Ready Bar Soap and Combat Ready Lip Balm

.

Just watch this video to learn a little more about Skincando, and Sara.

Sara has also generously donated 1 jar and 1 lip balm to one Prissy Green Reader! To enter simply tell me if you know anyone serving overseas, and if you think this would help them. (Before my brother left, I was able to send him off with some of the Skincando and the lip balm, courtesy of Sara! I haven’t heard from him yet, but I am so glad to know he has it!)

    My good friend’s daughter is on a Peace Corps assignment in Kyrgyzstan (that qualifies as overseas, right?). She freaks her Mom out with stories of all kinds of biting creepy-crawlies they have over there! I am sure she could benefit from some Skincando action.

    My father-in-law is in the Army and is currently serving in Afghanistan for the next 18 months. This is his 3 tour and as scared as we are for his safety we couldn’t be prouder!

    I’m sure this product would help with bug bites(sand fleas, flies, creepy-crawlies, etc.)mild abrasions, rashes, and skin ailments due to weather elements.

    The son of my coworker is in Iraq. She tells me that he is constantly asking her for lotions and lip balms due to the dry heat over there just wicking away all skin moisture. I bet he would love it.
