[Crisso]

One last thing... I am not a Dr. Denese "lover", "fan" whatever. I use ONE of her products. I just find it so ironic (hypocritical?) that people jump all over her products because she has had cosmetic procedures and more ("how dare she sell her products") and just recently I saw a thread about a philosophy vendor who came on in the wee hours who apparently had bags under her eyes and posters jumped all over that - saying how this was such a bad choice to represent the company!!

Seriously. I didn't mean google and pick whatever first hits you research. I meant scientific research or from sources that are credible and actually quote the scientific research they are basing their findings on.... Never mind. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother!!!

I don't know why you bother either. If someone tells you that 'cones break them out, why would you debate that point with them? I posted a similar view on 'cones & HydroShield recently and was promptly told that 'cones aren't bad. Okayyyyy, but they ARE FOR ME. So let it be. You're not going to convince someone who's already narrowed down the culprit in their skincare products.

That's a valid question. I can't speak for Crisso, although I agree with her about the facts, but I think it's futile to debate anecdotal evidence. Instead, I just post credible information. It's up to others to do with it what they will.

I continue to do so because I think it's important to alleviate the fears of those who read some of the posts here. I've actually read some posts where people who had absolutely no reactions or problems with silicones become concerned because of the aforementioned anecdotal reports.

For the record. I get impatient, yes, when people respond to something without having read what was written in context.

First of all, the OP never said she broke out because of the silicones in the product. She said she did not find it moisturizing enough. Read her original post.

My first post was, I think, very balanced. Read that too. I am speaking to CWS22 here, by the way.

It was other posters who brought up the silicones which, and I quote the OP, "scared" her. Which was why I made a comment about the myth of the evils of silicones.

My comment "why do I bother" was in response to doing a quick internet search and jumping on the first anecdotal sources, as Suze says, coupled with posters just refusing to even considering more credible sources. I Never debated with the OP (again, the person I was responding to) about whether or not the product would work for her.

AMEN

We're on the same page.

I love how everything on here becomes a World War. HydroShield is just a primer. If you need something more than that, try this.

It really works for Dr. Denese!!

Yes, yes. We know. You dug up enough threads and posted this ad nauseum!

Yes, and did you note the date of the article she insists on spamming us with?

Hi bunnypink ~ Umm....Just want to stick my toe in and say ~for me~ Hydroshield works wonders for my dry skin. I have used it for years. Yeah, I've tried the new latest greatest products, and I always go back. For me, it goes on 1st, right after wash. Everybody's skin is different. Hope you can find something that works well for you.

I got the Eye Hydroshield product as a sample. It made my eyes blow up like balloons when I applied it at night. Have never gotten good results from any Dr. Denese products. It has gone in the trash.

I'm just not a big fan of dimethicone, and Hydroshield is mostly dimethicone - it's the first ingredient. For me it does nothing for my skin and I just don't like the feel of it. I would rather have a nice serum (without dimethicone) with a decent moisturizer. Actually, I've started using rose hip oil under my moisturizer and really like it.

[HappyDaze]

my experience with hydroshield was exactly like yours, OP. Not a hydrated feeling at all, just a slick, primer like feeling that just sits atop my skin. That is NOT true hydration, imo. I didn't like it.
