You may have read the odd ‘desi boy’ review on my blog.

This time it’s on Salcura’s Zeoderm Moisturiser, an intensive cream for seriously dry skin.

This is the latest in a range of creams my husband has tried, and I’ve also got involved to offer a girl’s perspective.

He’s used the Salcura Zeoderm Moisturiser a few times now, and his thoughts are as follows: “As it says on the label, Salcura is a heavy-duty moisturiser, which helps relieve eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis and other similar skin conditions.

While my skin is pretty dry, I don’t suffer from any of the above. As a result, it may be a little too ‘intense’ for me!

It certainly lived up to its moisturising promise.

My dry skin was sorted after one application. But, as I guess you’d expect with a cream aimed at those with severe skin problems, Salcura felt pretty heavy-duty too. It came on like an emollient and didn’t easily absorb into my skin when I applied it to my face.

This made my skin feel slightly greasy. However, I did find that it worked really well on dry areas such as my elbows and feet, which are usually neglected.

Salcura costs £8.99 for 40ml and is available in Boots, major pharmacies and online at www.salcuraskincare.com
