Vitamin D3 with K2 5,000 IU Cream

The lotion is in the form of a thick opaque white cream that spreads and absorbs easily for a cream-based lotion rich in oils and bees wax. The formula does contain glycerin, so it helps retain moisture better than oils alone.

I have sensitive skin patch on my wrist from a nickel watch band used long ago. Although I no longer wear a watch, the sensitivity is still with me, and the skin gets itchy and flaky in that spot from time to time, especially in the winter. I used this lotion and after the first application, the itch was relieved. After two days / two applications, the itch is still gone, and the skin patch is healing well.

For me, this is working better than steroid creams with none of the side effects.

One pump dispenses a recommended dose with 5000 IU of Vitamin D3, but it's a large quantity and will be too much to treat smaller skin areas. I used 1/2 a pump and had more than enough with a smaller total amounts of the active vitamins. Since this is a skin cream, and not an internally consumed vitamin supplement, I use only enough of the lotion to cover my dry skin patches.

Also purported to help fade skin bruises and help heal wounds faster.

The scent is that of peppermint and tea tree oil -- what I would term a fresh medicinal scent.

The tube was wrapped in shrink wrap which is good to help identify tampering and preventing leaks, but it is hard to remove without using a knife.

The hard plastic tube itself is not marked with resin content or a recycling symbol.

The ingredients are clearly and completely listed on the tube and in a product image, but may not be easily searchable. As such, we encourage the vendor to list all of the ingredients in a searchable list form so that those with ingredient sensitivities can easily find them and make an informed purchase decision.

Cruelty free. Made in the USA, although ingredient sourcing is not disclosed.

Reasonably priced at about $19 at the time of our review.

The idea of applying magnesium through the skin struck me as a little woo, but I was desperate as the nightly foot cramps were very painful and came several times a night. I started an oral supplement, but it was going to take a while. As the directions stated, I applied the cream to the soles of my feet and calves and got immediate relief. Once the oral supplements got my overall levels higher, I no longer needed the cream every day. I now apply the cream as needed when I can feel the cramps coming on and it typically stops them completely for the rest of the nigh.

This lotion absorbs well without leaving a greasy feeling.
My skin feels more taut after regular use, and dries out less frequently after showering.

I think this cream is amazing because it actually does significantly fade bruising. I'm fair skinned, outdoorsy, and klutzy so I'm always getting my legs bruised. The bruises are not terrible but they are very visible. Using this cream, my current bruises have faded to nothing and/or almost nothing in 3 days.

(I'm also 61 so my body does not heal nearly as quickly as when I was young.) The scent smells energizing to me which is probably the peppermint oil and tea tree oil listed in the ingredients. Other ingredients include hemp oil, olive oil, rosemary oil, shea butter, sunflower lecithin, bees wax, aloe vera gel, vitamin E, and natural vitamin D3.

The creams comes in a 3 ounce plastic bottle that has a push type dispenser. What I love about the dispenser is I can get only a little if the bruise spot is small or a larger amount by from each pump.

This cream is readily absorbed. I really think this is magic. My rating is 5 stars.

I will start out by saying I hate fragrances in my products and prefer no scent at all. I was worried when I realized this had a small scent because I cannot tolerate most and was afraid I'd have a reaction. I did not. It must not be a synthetic fragrance because I do fine with it. It is a very light scent and it diminishes rather quickly as the product absorbs. It rube in easily and is creamy without being oily. I hope it helps with D levels when administered like this because I am deficient. I just get tired of taking so many supplements by mouth and if I can use this delivery method while helping any deficiencies I am happy. My skin isn't so great because of autoimmunity and I like the idea of improving it with this product. I definitely will keep using this one. It makes the skin feel very smooth.
