Where I got it: I was sent this for consideration. You can purchase Physiogel products from Life, Unichem and other leading pharmacies.
What I got: I received a 150ml tube of Daily Moisture Therapy Body Wash, a 200ml bottle of Daily Moisture Therapy Lotion and a 100ml tube of Calming Relief Cream. Clinically tested by dermatologists, the Daily Moisture Therapy range includes two creams and a lotion to nourish and repair dry, sensitive skin. This range also includes a gentle, soap free body wash, which is designed to cleanse, soften and hydrate. In addition to providing long lasting hydration, the Calming Relief range, which includes a cream and a lotion, contains a skin-soothing complex of replenishing lipids to relieve dry, sensitive and irritated skin, making it suitable for moisturising eczema, dermatitis and atopic prone skin. Unlike other products, Physiogel® creams and lotions contain Physiogel BioMimic Technology® which closely matches the protective lipid layer of the skin by helping it repair and retain moisture.
Physiogel® spokesperson Montse Pena said: “There is reluctance amongst dry, sensitive skin sufferers to try new products. We believe this stems from a fear of flair up, and a lack of confidence that the products will deliver results.

How I find it:
Daily Moisture Therapy Body Wash (150ml $11.99) is a gentle soap-free body wash suitable for dry, sensitive skin. It is free from fragrances, preservatives and colours. It has a fluid gel consistency and I use about a 2 dollar coin amount for the entire body. It lathers nicely, and cleanses without stripping away much natural moisture on the skin. It leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean, not taut or slippery to the touch.

Daily Moisture Therapy Lotion (200ml $19.99) is a fragrance free, preservative free and colour free body lotion that provides adequate moisture to the skin. It is light-weight and easily spread over the skin. Easily absorbed, the lotion leaves my skin soft to the touch and without any residue. I like to use this a couple of days before self-tanning to prepare the skin.
Daily Moisture Therapy Lotion
Calming Relief Cream (100ml $19.99). If you have dry, itchy skin then this Calming Relief Cream is the right product for you! Lately, my thighs, and legs have been quite dry to the point that it itches and flakes. I applied this after a shower and it relieves the itchiness and tight feeling right away and over-night, my leg is not longer flakey! I started applying this every night after a shower to ensure that my body is getting good moisture and no flakey, crackly skin! It doesn’t leave my skin sticky or feeling heavy so I can put my clothes on and head to bed immediately!
Calming Relief Cream
Overall: I love all the products I’ve tried from Physiogel! The body wash is gentle, yet effective. It is not fragranced and that can be quite important when my skin gets irritated and sensitive. It lathers well and the feels fresh and light on the skin as it does not leave any slippery residue. The lotion is great for daily application and I like to apply it in the morning as it is light and not stick at all. It provides moisture throughout the day without feeling thick and heavy. The cream on the other hand is great for applying at night. The cream is a bit more thick, but it still does not feel heavy on the skin. It helps to sooth any redness or irritation on the skin when my skin gets too dry (can get itchy). Provides long-lasting moisture to the skin and leaving it soft and smooth.
