Individuals undergoing chemotherapy and radiation cancer treatments are both physically and emotionally affected by the experience. We all know about some of the things cancer patients deal with such as loosing their hair and feeling nauseated a lot of the time. But, they also deal with dry cracked skin which can cause additional anxiety over their physical appearance.

Lindy Snider developed a commercial line of skin care products specifically for those undergoing cancer treatments. Lindy saw first-hand the skin irritations of her friends caused by their cancer treatments. In 2003, she launched her Lindi Skin products line.

It was Lindy’s desire to show people affected by cancer what they could do to improve their appearance. Lindy’s products range from sun screen to lotion, body wash, lip balm, face moisturizer plus more. The products were developed by medical professionals specifically to treat the dry, cracked, sensitive skin which comes along with the cancer treatments. However, people not undergoing cancer treatment, but who have sensitive skin are using the products as well. The interesting thing we see at Fantasia is that while people might begin using the products while undergoing cancer treatments; they fall in love with the products and continue using them long after they have discontinued their treatments. Some of the products, such as the serums, we literally cannot keep in stock!

According to Steve Rosenman, Lindi Skin’s marketing director, the best aspect of the Lindi products is how quickly they are absorbed into the skin. You put the product on and it’s almost as though it evaporates. This is particularly beneficial for cancer patients who previously used to cover themselves in thick petroleum jelly or other oily, greasy products, trying to alleviate the dry, cracked skin. And another benefit to the Lindi products is the quality of ingredients which are used. There are no chemicals or toxic ingredients, only good nourishing things such as botanicals and plant extracts.

Many of those who work with those undergoing cancer treatments such as Fabulous Faces by Fantasia and the Look Good…Feel Better program support Lindi Skin and feel it enhances the quality of life for people undergoing cancer treatment.

Protecting one’s skin is particularly important for cancer patients. This is the reason Lindi Skin products were developed, with their unique needs in mind. The product is moist and smooth and actually feels like you have nothing on, when, all the while you are protected.

Whether or not you are undergoing treatments, if you are looking for a good, natural skin care line, you just may want to try Lindi Skin.
