Skin Care Products – Part 1

TENAclub has previously announced that I have agreed to write a series of short incontinence and continence care blogs exclusively for their customers. The articles will be brief and as non-technical as possible so that most who are interested in these subjects will have little trouble grasping the information being presented.  TENAclub has also agreed to offer a bonus discount, in addition to their already sale price, on any Tena® products recommended in my articles. I believe such a commitment by TENAclub will be an enticement for customers to try products and decide for themselves about their effectiveness. When it comes to continence care, even the smallest improvement in one’s condition is beneficial.

The initial series of articles will be about skin care.  My mission for the skin care series is to teach TENAclub customers, who are confronted with skin problems, how to effectively care for their condition.  I urge you to do first things first, and open the following link Skin.  This site, contains everything you need to know about your skin in an easy to read and understandable format. Roam around the site and read about any topic you think will interest you. Once you do that. I’m sure you will find other topics on the site that will fascinate the average person.  If you have a basic understanding of the anatomy of the skin and the role it plays in human health, you will be able to connect the dots as to how skin care products function and the benefits one can derive from using the correct product for a particular skin condition. It really works folks…so be sure to frequently reference the Skin link to learn more and more about your own skin. It would be a good idea to bookmark the link for further reference.

Just think about it – when stretched out, the average skin area on our bodies would measure about two square meters – that’s 6 feet squared or a total of 36 ft. There are more than 1,000 species of bacteria living on skin, totaling about 1,000,000,000,000 individual bacteria, and an average of 14 different species of fungi living between the toes. Skin provides a tough, yet soft and supple barrier between the internal organs and the harsh outside world. The function of TENA® skin care products is to help the skin stay clean and healthy and protect one from certain diseases.

We all know that the body cream aisles of a drug store or supermarket can be overwhelming with various products…all claiming to keep your skin beautiful and healthy. Among this array of products, you will find cleansing creams from a variety of well-known cosmetic and personal product manufacturing companies. One company you will not see represented, will be the manufacturer of TENA® products…and that will be for a very good reason. That reason is that TENA® markets urinary incontinence products, such as adult pads and diapers. In addition to pads and diapers, however, TENA® also manufactures skin products that have been specifically formulated for people who have mild, moderate or pronounced incontinence.

When we are discussing skin cleansing, it’s so important to keep in mind, the quality of the water supply in our localities.  Depending on where you reside, the water in your community can be classified as very-good at the most and very-bad at the least. Impurities and compounds that are present in hard water supplies can lead to excessive dryness of the skin. Fortunately, those who live in areas with poor quality water are aware of that fact and realize they must be more diligent in caring for their skin. To avoid the harsh effects that take place when washing sensitive body parts, individuals with existing skin conditions,and those who want to avoid skin problems, should limit the use of tap water and instead use no-rinse cleanser to wash their skin. Read about these products and decide if you think any will enhance your or a loved one’s continence care. I highly recommend, selecting the product you think is best to try, and take advantage of the extra discount being offered…you will have no regrets!
