Hi, I just have to tell you how much I like your product!!! I always have had dry skin but when I worked at a job in a factory where chemicals were just in the room, I guess it just was in the air, and within a minute
I broke out in a rash and was extremely red. The other workers had been trying to get company to buy Gloves In A Bottle for all to use but you know how they don't always think it will work well!!!!!!
I put some on over redness and in a very short time it disappeared showing me that it was a great product. But I also found that the next day I put some on before I went to work and I was working with a chemical plus what was in the air and I did not even get red or itch. I am sold on the product!! When I asked for your product in stores it was hard to find, this was a few years back!! But I found some at the grocery store, at
Hy-Vee, and as you can tell I am very pleased I can buy it locally.

At 35 years of age, both of my hands developed scaly, dry areas, mostly on the palm side of the hands and fingers, especially the fingertips due to some skin allergies.
After suffering with persistent itching and bleeding, I visited a doctor about it. The doctor believes that there is something that I'm touching with my hands to which I have developed skin allergies. He prescribed
"Diprolene", but was careful to give me a number of dire warnings about how this was very strong medicine against skin allergies, not meant for prolonged use.
The Diprolene did handle the problem, but even if my hands appeared to be completely healed, as soon as I stopped using
"Diprolene", the symptoms would quickly return. This was no long-term solution, so I began trying an assortment of different skin care products from pharmacies, Avon, health food stores, taking vitamin E, etc. I even tried wearing gloves most of the day to avoid touching anything with the skin of my hands.
I'm sure you can imagine how ridiculous I felt walking around with gloves on in the San Antonio summer, plus - it did nothing whatsoever to help my skin allergies. In a nutshell, some of these things made the problem more bearable, but nothing was really helping to heal the problem.
I saw "Gloves In A Bottle" at a Walgreen's pharmacy in San Antonio, Texas. I bought some and tried it. At first, I really didn't think that it was doing very much. This product isn't a moisturizer, like everything else that I tried to use, so it didn't feel like it was doing anything. However, the affected skin on my fingers and palms seemed to be slowly improving as long as I was faithful in using this product. I reached a point at which the large scaly patches basically disappeared and my fingers no longer cracked and bled in a few weeks. A few more weeks,
and my hands appeared to be nearly perfect again.
About two months ago, I could not find "Gloves In A Bottle" at either of the two pharmacies that I had located that carried it. I did find a product, called
"Handshield", that was a genuine help. It's good, but not as good. I find that I could maintain my skin's health with this product, but it does not seem to heal once scaly areas get started again. Once again, it's good but not an appropriate long term solution. I am pretty thoroughly convinced that if I want my hands to remain in healthy shape, it's going to be necessary to continue using "Gloves In A Bottle".

FINALLY a product that works and saved my hands!!!
I was at my pharmacy having my pharmacist help me look for latex-free bandages so I could cover the deep crack in my thumb that I have had for over a month. Every bandage they had (Band-Aid,
Curad, Nexcare, ValueRight and a couple more brands) used latex and with my
severe allergy, my skin comes off the bandage so I was out of luck until she found a brand that is latex-free and ordered it in for me. In the mean time she gave me the small bottle of Gloves In A Bottle to try.
WOW!!! I used it before I went to bed Thursday night and when I woke up Friday morning that deep crack in the middle of my thumb that was bleeding the day before – was almost totally healed! I stopped in on my way to work and showed my pharmacist – she couldn't believe it either!!! I'm now using it about 3 times a day (it's Saturday and she gave me the bottle on Thursday) and that deep crack... all but GONE!!! One more day and it will be! What an amazing product! The pharmacy is ordering some in or if I can't want I'm going to order directly from your website!
I have tried everything – Triple-antibiotic ointment, pure Cocoa Butter, Corn Huskers, Vaseline's Waterproof hand lotion, Neutrogena's Norwegian Formula Hand Cream, a hand cream for gardeners,
Nu-Skin, Liquid Band-Aid, super glue dipped in baking soda (my boyfriend's father's fix – IT MADE IT WORSE because it killed and dried all the skin it touched!) – just to name a few – and NEVER have I gotten anything even close to the healing I got with JUST ONE USE!!!!! As I said – what an AMAZING PRODUCT!!! And no latex allergic reaction!!!
Your product has saved my life! I'm only 32 and my hands look like I'm at least 70 from the finger and knuckle cracks and the general dryness all over. I CAN NOT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR "Gloves In A Bottle"!!!!!!

Just wanted to let you know how much I like Gloves In A Bottle. My husband and I own and operate a small delicatessen and we generate tons of dirty dishes. We do have a commercial dishwasher bit some of the pots and pans need to be scrubbed first.
I end up doing a lot of dishes by hand, I formerly used rubber gloves but I got
skin allergies because of them, got a terrible, itchy rash on the backs of my hands.
So now I use Gloves In A Bottle two or three times a day. What a great product! My hands are rash-free and no more itch! THANKS!

My name is Crista and I live in Ohio. I have had a severe allergy to Aspartame (name brand Nutra Sweet) since I was 16. As I have gotten older my allergy has progressed. I am now to the point that I can not touch it, smell anything that has it as an ingredient, and if I am in a room where it has gone airborne (i.e. someone has opened a diet soda) you may as well call the ambulance. You see, Aspartame puts me into anaphylactic shock, regardless of the amount in which I come into contact. I am sure that you are aware of how many products are out there with this sweetener in them. Way too many, to my families thinking. I have been unable to hold a job, because I never know if I am going to have a reaction, and when I do have a reaction I am so painfully swollen it is grotesque. I am sooo sensitive, that talking to or even hugging people has become dangerous. Between the diet sodas, the sugar free gums and breath mints, if they so much as pronounce a heavy 'p' sound their spittle (that we can't see with the naked eye) will send me into a reaction. So, my family and I have been on the hunt for things that will make my life a little easier.
We were all getting very discouraged when my husband and I went to Gatlinburg, TN for our 10 year anniversary this past September. That's where we happened upon your product. We were shopping in a small garden store in the Old Mill area, and the lady in charge of the store was putting some on her hands. She was getting ready to check out our purchases and was really going on about this lotion. There was a display of it on the counter, and I pulled one of the bottles out and started reading. I couldn't believe my eyes! I thought, 'if this stuff is half as good as she says and the label reads, this might be worth it'. I showed it to my husband and he agreed that it might be worth a try. I immediately put it on my hands, all the way up my arms (as I was wearing a sleeveless t-shirt under a long sleeve shirt, the long sleeve was supposed to protect me), and around my neck area.
My hubby and I were going to be heading into the Mill for lunch (which of course is taking a HUGE chance every time I walk into a restaurant), and we thought this would be a great testing ground for the product. Let me tell you, it was! We always ask for a table away from the drink station to help keep me safe, and we did so this time and ended up at a table in the corner. In the past when I have gone to restaurants I have had to wear pants, long sleeve shirts, gloves and a surgical mask to stay safe. This time it was just pants, Gloves In A Bottle and a mask. Needless to say our waitress got the whole scoop about how I needed her to be careful with my food and drink, to keep it away from other people's diet sodas. When we told her that, she about flipped her lid. She let us know that the couple that had just vacated that table were both drinking diet and are we sure we wanted to sit there. Alan (my hubby) and I looked at each other and Alan said "It will be a true test if we can make it through lunch without an episode." I agreed and we stayed. That was the first meal that I have had in a restaurant, that didn't know who I was, or what they needed to do to help keep me safe. (some of our hometown restaurants that we frequent have been very kind in providing some measure of safety for me)
After we ate, Alan and I were extremely excited about the product and immediately went back to the store and bought their last 7 bottles! The next day I covered all skin that was exposed to the air, hands, arms, neck, legs, and my face below my cheek line. We rode the trolley into downtown from Pigeon Forge, and I made sure to reapply every 3 hours just to make sure I was covered. I walked all of Gatlinburg that day, including the mall, and didn't have any allergic reactions from Aspartame on my skin. Talk about a miracle!
Since then, my family has purchased many bottles of the 'Gloves' for me. It is amazing what your product does. I had my brother put some on before we had BBQ ribs, and I tell you what, every little bit of the sauce was able to be rinsed off without any soap. Of course, we did end up using soap, but it was a lot of fun to watch sticky BBQ roll off your fingers under clear water!
I just wanted to say 'Thank You'. You probably can't understand what a huge relief finding you product truly was! I still have to be super careful, but at least now I don't have to worry quite so much about what I am touching (and who had what on their hands when they touched it before me). If you ever need a poster child, I'm willing! Thanks again, and God Bless You and Your Company!

I work on a ranch, so my hands get totally trashed despite my best efforts. On any given day, I may be using pesticides, tattoo ink, various vaccines and cattle medicines, etc.
I also work as an artist. What I do is make baskets from pine needles. The finished baskets are cured with melted pitch and beeswax. You can add those two items to what is usually stuck to my hands.
Lastly, I remarried, to an old cowboy who insisted on the whole shebang, including wedding rings. The last time I wore a ring was a good twenty years ago. I gave it up pretty quickly because my finger turned bright red and swelled like a carrot.
So the third reason I thought I’d try Gloves In A Bottle was to see if it would provide a buffer between the ring and my finger. It seems to be working.

I personally started using Gloves In A Bottle about 4-5 years ago. It was after our company was having problems with the employees
breaking out with a rash on their hands and arms. It seems the rubber bands we were using (made in Sri Lanka) were the culprit.
After using several skin protectors we chanced upon Gloves In A Bottle and bingo no more rashes. It really protected the contact of the rubber from their skin.
After years of gardening my hands felt like leather
and were with our mucky black soil. I started using Gloves In A Bottle after the company's success and after about a week I noticed my hands were looking very different. They were looking so good, I started having manicures for the first time in my life. I actually started wearing polish and was not ashamed of my hands.
Today I use Gloves In A Bottle on my hands, arms, legs and feet (I am a bare-footer). My feet are not stained like they use to be. I don't know if it was the Gloves In A Bottle, but I was single when I started using it and I am now married to a man a bit younger than me. Makes you wonder!

I wanted to congratulate everyone in your company for making such TRULY WONDERFUL product for the old-timers like me!

I had the
"fishermen's curse" — bad, worse than anybody I ever knew. All my life I've loved to fish, but suddenly at age 17, when I touched worms, leeches, fish skin, or slime, my hands started to rash, itch, and burn so much I had to put them under hot water for relief.
A lot of guys' hands get dry, cracked, and uncomfortable from handling bait and fish. I've simply got an advanced case.
There's something in fish, worms, and slime that sucks the moisture from your hands and starts a reaction. Guys know what cause it, but live with it. The trouble is, it gets worse as you get older.
I tried Gloves In A Bottle, caught 40 fish and handled them all myself. I waited for the familiar burning sensation to come, but it never did.
No itching, burning, blisters, or peeling. Nothing! Sometimes, I find myself jumping up and down in the boat - it's so wonderful. If I had my way, I'd call it Miracle in a Bottle. That's how strongly I feel about it.

I tried the Gloves In A Bottle that I had picked up at my local drug store, and I have never had any product that worked so well.
The first time I used Gloves In A Bottle it stopped the itching and within three days my hands were cleared up no blisters no itching and no cracking and bleeding.
I really like this product! I have ordered another bottle of Gloves In A Bottle. I had been to different doctors with no help... Thank you so much for Gloves In A Bottle!

Gloves In A Bottle forms a protective barrier on the skin and
keeps out irritants and chemicals. It also allows the natural oils and moisture to remain in the skin so it can heal better.
It is a big advantage that shielding lotions are light and go on without a greasy mess. When your skin gets dry and itchy you know that the protective outer layer of skin has been stripped away.
The artificial moisturizers in conventional creams and lotions can send a signal to the moisture producing parts of your skin that enough moisture is present.
Your skin then makes less of the natural moisture needed to resolve a dry skin problem. With a shielding lotion you protect your own natural oils and moisture in the skin, so it heals faster.

The first time I used Gloves In A Bottle on my hands and elbows and WOW!! What a joyful experience that was. At the time I had a
rash on the top of my foot that itched so bad I could hardly keep from scratching it and of course then the skin would weep and make a scab. I used everything I could find to clear it up. I must have used at least 10 different products but nothing worked.
So one day I said I wonder if this lotion would help. One application and the itching stopped and the scab was gone in about 1 1/2 days and the itching never came back.
I've been using it like a body lotion, hands, feet, face, neck arms, etc. My face skin is so supple and smooth. I LOVE THIS STUFF.

We purchased Gloves In A Bottle for our maintenance and custodial staff. They work with oils, lubricants and various kinds of chemicals, and the latex gloves they were using were causing
skin allergies on their hands.
We use it in conjunction with the latex gloves and have been very happy with it. We have not had experience with the any other product like this one, we have always relied on latex gloves in the past but are now switching to a protective method in addition to latex gloves.

I
want to thank you for your great product "Gloves In A Bottle". This past weekend I needed to clean some really greasy cabinets that I have been putting off cleaning due to the fact that I was not looking forward to using a harsh cleaner.
I have very sensitive skin and tend to get skin allergies easily using most cleaning products. I saw your product and thought "why not" and I gave it a try. I must tell you I was overwhelmed at how well it protected my hands. I was able to scrub, have my hands in and out of water for over 3 hours with no problems what so ever.
No burning, itching or flaky skin. In fact when I was finished with my cleaning I reapplied "Gloves In A Bottle" and I was amazed at how soft my hands still felt. AND IT WAS EASY TO USE. I look forward to using "Gloves In A Bottle" each and every day now.
