Bye bye, bruises.
Our skin thins over time, which means our natural barrier against bruises does, too. Even a little bump can result in an unsightly bruise, so it’s important for us to do everything we can to protect ourselves! Fortunately, our friends at DerMend have developed a fabulous formula, rich in ceramides, retinol, and arnica oil, to help restore the skin’s natural barrier and help defend against future bruising.
FOF Jennifer tried the formula and loved it: “I saw definite improvement in my skin the first day I used it. By the third day… 
I was sold!”
FOF Julie said: “DerMend helped my bruises and my spider veins! My skin also felt so soft after using it.”
Now is your chance to win a tube to protect your skin. Use DerMend ($29.99 for 4.5oz) twice a day on your arms and legs to help replenish damaged skin and help prevent future bruising. 10 FOFs will win!
