Ageing Skin

Jennifer

After using these products for several months, I have noticed an improvement in the texture and appearance of my skin. It is definitely softer and more supple and looks refreshed and revived, rather than tired and grey. And aside from all of these benefits – I love that it is within my budget AND it’s kind to the environment. What a win!

Melisse - @balancingmel

Revive Skincare Pack is amazing. This cleanser leaves the skin feeling clean and hydrated, and the lotion absorbs brilliantly without leaving an oily feeling. It also lasts well into the next day. In terms of moisturisation, this is a double thumbs-up pack for me.

Cathy

I have been using your Revive Moisturiser for 2 weeks and think it's great. I am 45 and thought my skin just wouldn't "glow" again, which it hasn't with the other products I used. Now I see a glow and feel like my skin really absorbs the product. Thank you

Anita

I am a regular client for approx 2-3 years of Down to Earth and love your products. Your Revive Moisturiser makes me look years younger. I absolutely love the African potato in it that serves as my foundation too.

Jill

We LOVE the Revive Moisturiser!  I have not found anything to match it.  I am 74 and have been using it for many years – I put my good complexion down to your products.

Annique

The hydration and suppleness of my skin is absolutely amazing, even after waking up and not yet applying it for the day. There is a definite clarity in my skin and blemishes have minimized and healed much faster!! It sits beautifully underneath makeup which was one thing I was concerned about before trying it.

Madelaine

I was struggling to get a perfect moisturiser for my skin. I just couldn't get something that worked for me. Since I started to use the Revive Moisturiser I never looked back. I have been using it for almost 2 years now. I am one very satisfied customer!! I even use the Clear Skin Gel for a lot of stuff...These products are just AMAZING.

Rory-Leigh

Thanks Down to Earth!!! Been using the Revive Moisturizer for about 2 months… and can definitely feel the difference in my skin… previously spent loads of money on the well known brands and only ended up with aged skin. Now I feel like my "almost 30s" wrinkles aren't that much visible anymore!!

Lela

I used this as a day moisturiser [Revive Moisturiser] as I love the way it kept my t-panel matte all day without my skin feeling dried out or tight. The subtle scent was appreciated by my hubby so I received loads more spontaneous kisses (he says just so he could smell my face!)

Antonett

I had number 4 radiation therapy – after 6 weeks my chest, from under my breasts till under my neck, was blistered like a grater and burnt black. I used all kinds of creams – then I used the African Potato Cream. Now my skin is smooth and beautiful.

Edidt

Whilst making coffee I accidentally pored some boiling water over my hand. Even though I kept it in ice-cold water for a long time, it burned like hell after I took it out. Eventually I put on some African Potato Cream which stopped the burning sensation and I did not even get blisters! Great product Down to Earth!

Cold Sores, Bacterial & Fungal Concerns

The Clear Skin Gel works very well on the scalp and controls the itch of psoriasis remarkably well. The scalp lesions have developed into wart-like lumps as have some on the body. The gel seems to be reducing these in size.

I bought a jar of African Potato Cream in the hope that it would alleviate/cure the psoriasis that I had had on my feet for many years.

Helen

I discovered your African Potato Cream via a friend who lives in Durban and within 2 days, the psoriasis on my face, which had resisted all medication for several months, disappeared!

Minor Wounds & Abrasions

Melisse - @balancingmel

Clear Skin Gel  worked wonders on containing a cold sore I had. I also gave some to a colleague who developed a cold sore a few weeks later, and it was just as effective in preventing hers from getting fully inflamed. I've used it for the kids when they have scrapes or rashes, and it really is just so effective at helping the healing process.

H.D

Thank you for the Clear Skin Gel. After struggling for years to clear the sores on my legs, I finally have with the help of your Clear Skin Gel, which managed to clear a lot of them. I am sure with another treatment, it will be even better. Thanks again.

Jean

My husband who is a bee farmer, whilst working on the bees last night, was stung a number of times on the face which he applied the Revive Moisturiser, he maintains his face is feeling tremendous this morning.

Hazel

I have used African Potato Cream a good number of years and have found it to be a fantastic household remedy for sunburn, muscular aches and pains, insect bites, tissue damage and stiff joints. I would say a home should not be without it – try it, you cannot go wrong.

Sulfranja

Mrs Venter's mother from Grootfontein fell - there was a huge, blue swollen spot on her wrist. It was so swollen that they thought she had broken her wrist. The African Potato Cream was applied and after two days the swelling diminished and blue bruising was much lighter.

Fanie

I am Fanie van Zyl and am plagued with diabetes. I have tried everything on the market and have spent thousands antibiotics and ointments. Nothing, but nothing, helps.

I’m blown away by how amazing the African Potato Cream is! I have had pain in my back and hips for years, every morning without fail I wake up with a pain so severe it takes my breath away. This morning I woke up almost pain free! I will be taking my African Potato Cream with me everywhere I go!

Charne

I am a massage therapist and often have sore wrists from massaging my clients, I tried the African Potato Cream and within 10 minutes of applying it, the pain disappeared.

J

I am due to have both knees for replacement. When I use the African Potato Cream, three to four times a day, I find great relief.

June

I have found that using the African Potato Cream, helps the soreness and swelling in my fingers quite substantially and hopefully continued use will bring me more relief.

Hazel

I have used African Potato Cream a good number of years and have found it to be a fantastic household remedy for sunburn, muscular aches and pains, insect bites, tissue damage and stiff joints. I would say a home should not be without it – try it, you cannot go wrong.

Johan

I find the African Potato Cream is excellent and I’m rubbing it on my feet. Before I was in a great deal of pain and could hardly walk. After starting to use this product my feet have improved and I can walk again, but I need to apply it every day.

Johann

After two shoulder operations and constant pain someone gave me a jar of African Potato Cream. I used it
for about nine months with great success. The pain went away and now I can sleep at night without pain.

Phyllis

After my stroke I suffered severe pain in my hand and shoulder. Upon trying African Potato Cream, I was amazed. The relief was immediate. My back aches after a long day sitting down, but after a rub with African Potato Cream I enjoy a pain-free night.

Mrs D

Having suffered from extreme pain, a friend suggested African Potato Cream, which I have used for five years and obtained great relief. I am never without African Potato Cream.

Helen

I have been using the African Potato Cream for five months and can’t do without it. I have tried all the anti-inflammatory products available at chemists, but the African Potato Cream has been the best.

Vic

I used to suffer terribly with tennis elbow...Being an ardent fisherman, this caused a problem for my love of the sport. My wife bought a tub of African Potato Cream and voila! I’ve rubbed the pain away.

Cas

Six months ago I began to experience pins and needles and pain in my feet. A friend recommended African Potato Cream and I experience remarkably quick relief with the product.

Saritha

I suffer from leg pain. I rub in a little African Potato Cream and the pain is gone!

Charles

My hand and wrists were always very painful after driving to Pietermaritzburg and back on business, but an application of African Potato Cream takes away the pain in minutes.

Helen

My husband is 84 years old, a diabetic and blind. He suffers from a pinched nerve and worn out disc in the spine. All treatments have been done, but he is still in constant pain. This product relieves him of pain all the time. I cannot do without it. Thanking all involved in producing this fantastic product.

Sensitive & Irritated Skin

Leon

Natural at sensible prices is another factor that makes your range so appealing. There are two products in particular that I would like to point out for being great: your Recharge Moisturiser (it does what it claims) and your All Over Wash which I use as a shampoo.

Nicole

This brand has by far surpassed my wildest expectations because I am actually seeing POSITIVE results! The [All Over] Lotion and Body wash have been extremely gentle on my skin and actually repairing it the more I use it!

Des

After trying the Recharge Facewash & Shaving Gel, I decided to give the Recharge moisturiser a bash...It’s light and refreshing, your skin feels great and it really helps soothe any itchiness and tenderness after shaving.

Angela

I have been using the African Potato Cream for a little while now, but only recently realised its multiple uses...I also found it helps with shaving rash and mild skin irritations, soothing those itches. I am very happy to have found something with so many helpful uses, thank you.

Debbie

I absolutely love your products. The Clear Skin Gel and African Potato Cream has saved my skin under my mask during the year. I’m a teacher who wears a mask all day!

Des

I usually use old fashioned shaving foam, but my wife persuaded me to try the Recharge Face wash & Shaving Gel. It's actually so good that I'm popping you this mail...It's also fantastic because it doesn't make a mess and actually does soothe inflamed skin. It's the only thing I use now when I shave.

Edidt

Unfortunately the clear sky's and warmer weather have not yet arrived in Gauteng, but the allergies are in full force and exacerbated by the masks. The Clear Skin Gel soothes the rash on my chin wonderfully, thanks.

Vasti

I had some eczema on my hands and coupled with all the hand sanitiser...After applying Clear Skin Gel once, I saw a massive improvement. After a few more applications, my hands are pretty much back to normal!

Des

My wife gave me a bottle of your All Over Wash and I must tell you that it is BY FAR the best thing I've ever used. My skin wasn't irritated at all, and in fact, after a week of using it, it feels like I'm far less affected by the dry Highveld air. Just thought I'd let you know, it's a brilliant product.

Leatitia

I once got a sample of clear skin gel, put it in a drawer and forgot about it. Then, about 3 weeks ago I had an allergic reaction on my face, red itchy patches. All I could find was this sample and, boy! did it do wonders to relieve the burning and itching sensations.

Diane

I’m pleased to say that the clear skin gel worked very well – better than any of the other cortisone-based products we have tried so far. We will definitely be keeping a tub of it in the house for any skin complaints/allergies that we may have from here on.

Johann

I am using the Clean Skin Gel for the constant itching on my back caused by warts. Even the dermatologist could not do anything for it. I use Clear Skin Gel twice daily. The itching stopped and the warts are now dry and fall off.

Anne

The Clear Skin Gel works very well on the scalp and controls the itch of psoriasis remarkably well. The scalp lesions have developed into wart-like lumps as have some on the body. The gel seems to be reducing these in size.

Verna

I am allergic to insect bites. Some 3 years ago we were in Tampa Bay in Florida, USA...I remembered I had a small jar of Clear Skin Gel. Well! That was it. After a while even the scars diminished. Now I use it even on my eyelids for itchy bites – also in most sensitive places.

Edidt

I am currently undergoing chemotherapy and had an allergic reaction to it. My face swelled up and the skin as itchy and burning. I used the African Potato Cream which immediately gave me some relief with the itching/burning and within 4 days the swelling has gone away.

Alana

Hi, this cream [African Potato Cream] literally changed my life - I have a very sensitive eczema prone skin and since finding this product I have no complaints. It truly is an amazing product, thank you.

Jean

My husband who is a bee farmer, whilst working on the bees last night, was stung a number of times on the face which he applied the Revive Moisturiser, he maintains his face is feeling tremendous this morning.

Danya

I would recommend the African Potato Cream as well as the Clear Skin Gel. it works wonders on sensitive and acne prone skin. It even has the possibility to get rid of rough patches or spots on ageing skin. Wonderful products!

Anneli

In our family we use African Potato Cream for everything. From itchiness, sunburn, birthmarks, muscular pain…. My 5 year old will say…. 'Mamma ek dink ons moet Afrika Aartappels smeer'.

Lynette

My skin is very sensitive and the Revive Moisturiser is amazing. I use the African Potato cream for joint pains and it is wonderful. I don’t use cortisone creams for my eczema any more, only the African Potato Cream with the Clear Skin Gel. The products are truly amazing.

Sun Damaged Skin

Prof Gudrun

I have visitors out here from the Netherlands and gave my friend a container of African Potato Cream as a present. She has been using it for a week now and the discolouration/skin type cancer on her face has totally disappeared. She is a physiotherapist by profession and wants to take this cream back to the Netherlands.

Jennifer

I was caught for hours in the sun over the weekend without any sun protection. When I arrived home, I immediately washed the day's grime from my face and then applied...Clear Skin Gel to my face and neck. The relief was instantaneous...Great product - thank you!

Nelia

Looove die room!! My eerste kennismaking met die room [African Potato Cream] was toe ek rooi gebrand was vd son. Dit het só vinnig gewerk en gehelp vir die seer. Beter as enige 'aftersun'. Kan dit regtig aanbeveel. Ek sorg dat ek dit oral saamry.

Karen

I am very impressed with the Revive Moisturiser. It is helping with a rough sunspot on my face.

Mrs J

I find Revive Moisturiser excellent for a constantly skinning nose – I do not even sunbath!

Terisa

I used Clear Skin Gel one night (after a day in the sun - I felt my face-and-neck-area had taken some sun-burn) and my skin looked soooo good the next morning, After applying this gel my skin immediately felt cooled-off, and "calm"

Lela

This [Clear Skin Gel] is a brilliant after-sun gel and it saved my skin more than once after I got caught staying out in the midday glare for way too long. It cools the skin and heals overnight, by the next morning, I could almost not realise I had burnt. And the best part? No peeling!

L

I have been in the South Coast since spring – the African sun is really hot. I have exposed myself to it a couple of times, but applying the Clear Skin Gel afterwards worked like magic.

Lena

This [African Potato Cream] is one of those products you just have to have in your cupboard. It's great for arthritis, sunburn, chapped heels, burns, chaffed skin, you name it! In our household we have a standing joke, if kids ask what they can use for whatever, the standard reply is African Potato Cream 🙂

Nailah

So far my mum uses it [African Potato Cream] for her arthritis which had helped the swelling tremendously. We use it for stretch marks(me), sunburn(family), scars(family).

Anneli

In our family we use African Potato Cream for everything. From itchiness, sunburn, birthmarks, muscular pain…. My 5 year old will say…. 'Mamma ek dink ons moet Afrika Aartappels smeer'.

Sharon

It’s great for arthritic conditions as a temporary pain relief [African Potato Cream]. By the 1st week the arthritis pain has diminished, the skin has become more youthful in appearance, the dark spots on the hand have become lighter in color.

Constance

One day I heard a talk about the miracle ointment. I remember the particulars and also told my friends about it. [African Potato Cream] My big surprise is that I have a very large (almost like an old 50c piece) black mark on my thigh, which I treated with the ointment and now it is becoming increasingly lighter and it seems like it will disappear.

Hazel

I have used African Potato Cream a good number of years and have found it to be a fantastic household remedy for sunburn, muscular aches and pains, insect bites, tissue damage and stiff joints. I would say a home should not be without it – try it, you cannot go wrong.

Maureen

I am a bowler and the African Potato Cream is helping me with the ugly, sore, skin cancer spots on my arms and face caused by sun exposure. A magnificent product!

Joan

My mom, Magda Bradfield, has noticed a vast improvement after using only one tub of African Potato Cream on her sun damaged hands. Subsequently her skin has continued to improve with regular use of the African Potato Cream.

Ethane

I am writing to thank you so very sincerely for helping me to discover the amazing product [African Potato Cream] from Down to Earth. I suffer from psoriasis and sun damaged skin (the start of skin cancer of my face). After two weeks the healing results are amazing.

Warts

Celeste

LOVING the African Potato Cream! I had a couple warts popping up on my leg that have been there for over a year now. After a few weeks of using the cream they’re almost completely gone!!! Wish I’d taken before and after pics for you - I’m amazed by how effective it is!

Moira

My mother had a senile wart on her face which the doctors said would never go away and after 3 months of using the African Potato Cream it went away totally so we are a firm believer in the product ! Now I have friends who want to try it.

Pam

I just wanted to let you know of the success my granddaughter has had with the Down to Earth product [African Potato Cream] on her warts. She had about 18 of them altogether and has finally managed to get rid of all but one and that is also on its way. So thank you so much!

D.L

I have used African Potato Cream for approximately two years. It has helped considerably to curtail the spread of psoriasis and to eliminate the disease from certain areas of the body. My wife and I use it to relieve arthritic pain in the joints. My wife used it to remove a wart from her leg.

Johann

I am using the Clean Skin Gel for the constant itching on my back caused by warts. Even the dermatologist could not do anything for it. I use Clear Skin Gel twice daily. The itching stopped and the warts are now dry and fall off.

Anne

The Clear Skin Gel works very well on the scalp and controls the itch of psoriasis remarkably well. The scalp lesions have developed into wart-like lumps as have some on the body. The gel seems to be reducing these in size.

Before & Afters

The stinging immediately subsided...This morning when I woke up, I checked my burn expecting to see blisters but there was not a single one. I am so grateful for this product."
