Puriya Intensive Moisturizer with Honey Shea Butter Hydrating Soothing for Dry Irritated Sensitive Skin Daily Multi Purpose Cream

WARNING: This is a long review. I will also provide detailed information about a personal episode that I hope some will find helpful. Here goes: Today, I'm several weeks into dealing with a long developing rash, that originated on my lower back right at the crux of my butt crack extending out on both cheeks. Initially I got a couple of bug bites there and scratched them until they were sores. Since a car accident, many years ago, I mainly sleep on my back. At some point in time, I developed what seemed to be a heat rash in the area I described above. It was very very very itchy. I tried using salves, clays and powders to dry it up and calm it down because I seemed to be more irritated at night with the heat generated from constant contact with the mattress and I scratched all night long; losing sleep because it was so itchy. Ever since childhood, I've had the tendency to scratch bites and rashes until I bleed and it/they turned into a sore(s). This time is no different. The rash began to spread further down my butt and into my butt crack with most of my itching being inside the crack and right at the point where the two cheeks meet. It then started to spread down on the bottom of my butt and was extremely itchy when I sat for long periods of time. I scratched and scratched and scratched and scratched; always breaking the skin and causing bleeding. Since I had already consulted with a doctor, about two weeks in, and the initial suggestion/prescription wasn't helping, I consulted with them again and they believed that since I had broken the skin so severely that I may have contracted a bacterial/fungal infection and it was suggested to use an anit-fungal cream; clotrimazole. Initially, it helped in calming some of the rash but then it came back and I continued to scratch and break the skin on a daily basis. The itch was so bad that scratching was almost orgasmic. I knew what I was doing wasn't good but the itch was incessant and I couldn't keep my hands away. On my own, after reading many articles and suggestion about how best to deal with this. Two different things came up in my search for another solution; someone said they used miconazole and then I found this product and read the reviews on this cream. I knew that I purchased this cream some time ago (4/16/16) for long standing dry skin irritation on my shins, but had it when I was working at a job that I traveled back and forth to often. Since I had left there, some of my personal belongings were still packed and it seem like too much work to find it. I decided that I would try the miconazole cream. That was three (3) days ago! I used it and within a short while it seem to make my itch exponentially worse. I had cut my finger nails to help with breaking the skin so badly. I was so desperate to relieve the itch that I started searching in a drawer in the bathroom to find something to use to scratch my skin. I found a miniature comb...really tiny, like a doll's comb. I grabbed it and used to rake over my skin to relieve the itch! While it felt really really really good to relieve the itch, I knew that I had done some major damage because when I looked at the comb, it was full of blood. I grabbed tissue to wipe it away and there was a lot of blood. It took some time to get the bleeding under control! I knew then that I had to get medical attention IMMEDIATELY!. I ended up going to the ER that night and was really embarrassed by the situation and revealing the damage that I had done! The nurses and doctor were very casual about it and assured me that this is common and helped me to feel comfortable. When I had to bury my head under the pillow (embarrassed) to spread my cheeks to view some of the damage, they were very calm and assuring me that although it looked "angry" that it was not the worse that they've seen. What I did discover was that I scratched myself so badly that I developed a fissure in the crack. They said that because the area was moist and dark, that fighting the bacterial or fungus was going to be difficult and was probably why the creams hadn't worked. They immediately prescribed an oral antibiotic and fungal medication. I took the first dose three days ago and within hours that intensity of the itch had decreased significantly. Although it decreased, it was still enough that I scratched until I bled; I just didn't scratch as long. As of last night I am completely frustrated and losing patience after 48 hours and no relief. I was afraid of another "comb" episode. I couldn't sleep again last night so I decided to read again about what to do. I ended up back on Amazon and back to this cream. It's 3 am and I decide to dig through boxes to find this cream. I found it but since I wanted to sleep I decided now wasn't the time to try it yet. Well I never ended up sleeping and at about 5 am, I went through my general wash and treatment regimen, which includes washing the area with hydrogen peroxide (let it dry), then apply colloidal silver (let it dry) and then cream of choice. Prior to this point and after the antibiotics, I was using a doctored chickweed salve that was helping somewhat. This time, I decided that I was going to use this cream first and after rubbing it really well, I would then follow with the doctored chickweed salve I made. AS OF THE TYPING OF THIS REVIEW.....14 HOURS LATER, THREE WASH ROUTINES AND APPLICATIONS OF THIS CREAM.....my itching has decreased about 90%, my skin feels relieved, my comfort level has normalized, I've gone through the day with minor sensations to itch, the majority of the bumps from the rash are gone, I'm no longer weeping from the open sores from scratching!! I'm generally not amazed but I'm amazed and super relieved. I now have to deal with the damage that I've done to the skin, which I'm really okay with. My biggest hurdle and problem seemed to be itching that seemed endless and had me very concerned. I know this hasn't worked for some people but it has worked for me and it has worked very quickly! I'm going to continue to use this and will maybe do a short update in maybe a few weeks. I hope this helps anyone who may be dealing with something similar. Read more

Safe! Somewhat soothing and perhaps a modicum of healing to boot. If nothing else works, you cannot really go wrong with this. It is a strange coating when fully rubbed in, which is does very easily. Not greasy, but you know it is on. To you/me, it smells so nice too when applying, but those around you will no doubt puke. Unlike other so-called super moisturizers which leave a greasy film all over, 'Mother of All doesn't'. I assume that one could easily/happily use this potion as a very pleasant moisture cream for normal use on good, healthy skin - anytime. A family business by all accounts, but remarkably similar to a couple of other products boasting 'intense healing'. Same pots, almost the same logo style. So which one? I've tried a good few, but was most satisfied with Mother of All. So far anyway..........but that might be relative to the allergy quirks. I am deadly allergic to steroid (still millions of doctors deny that humans can be, but trust me.. there are millions of us out there who might well be and don't know it! That includes Viagra and Cealis like tablets, which again denial reigns, but they DO contain steroid base, but doctors refuse to accept that it seems). Cortisone fires off the allergy, yet again, doctors invariably accept no other treatment and thus insist on giving you more cortisone. Duh! In that condition, one is totally debilitated; all over your body your skin burns like on fire and then the horrendous itching after the spots heal a bit; then the constant recycling until your immune system eventually lets go and you start to finally heal after shedding maybe 100 layers of skin over the time. Often more than a year or so in agony. Anything one puts on your skin in that state can have terrifying consequences. Oils, which are supposed to sooth or heal, can and will agitate to the Nth degree, so it is very difficult to find creams or potions that wont cause more pain. Furthermore, once the body starts allergies, it can seem like you are allergic to everything. Mother of All.. helped with no side effects at all. I tried so many different creams from moisturizers you have to sell your yacht for to buy, to simple Indian supermarket ayurvdic potions in tubes. Many irritated and even caused more breakouts. Mother of All Creams certainly did not agitate at all, quite the opposite. The Dollar Indian creams are just as good for healing as say cortisone and they don't agitate. Then again, Mother of All contains similar ingredients. Searching Amazon, I came across 'Mother of All Creams' and read some of the thousands of reviews. A million flies can't be wrong. All good! A tad over priced for we minions when all is said and done, but in absolute desperation, I bought it. If you cannot sleep at night because of your condition, a good smear and an antihistamine that sends you off, can keep you down for a good few hours. Not sure if MoAC rubs off on the sheets if you roll around a lot, because it does seem to be well absorbed in no time, but another rub half way through the night will certainly help. Sadly, it doesn't go very far if your whole body is aflame. A pot full double the size for the same price would be nice and they'd no doubt sell more as I will keep buying it, even though my skin is at last improving after 1 year near death. Read more
