Product Review: LiceMD Lice & Egg Treatment

A few weeks ago I was watching my new favorite t.v. show, The Real Housewives of New York City. It’s a guilty pleasure and I love how the socialites interact with each other. One of the housewives, Countess LuAnn de Lesseps, was telling the other ladies about how her children came home with lice. The Countess used some sort of heat lamp method. That sounds awful.

The mere thought of lice makes me shudder. Suddenly my head itches. Last year, my son’s daycare provider informed me that one of the other children had a case of head lice and she wanted to warn us about it. The daycare was doing everything they could to quarantine the infected areas but they didn’t know when the child’s parents discovered the infestation, and any number of children could have gotten lice, too. We were advised to pick up Nix shampoo, just in case.

My husband ran to the store immediately, while I went home to wash all of our sheets and pillow cases and spray down our furniture with disinfectant. Once we got the shampoo, I put Dawson in the tub and tried to wash his hair without getting the formula in his eyes. The Nix shampoo smelled like a very strong chemical, not at all a pleasant scent, and it made my eyes water. I couldn’t help but wonder how safe this shampoo really was!

So, when I was introduced to LiceMD Lice & Egg Treatment, I was happy to learn it is pesticide free. The formula removes lice within 10 minutes and the best part is that it’s odorless, which means no strong chemical smell, and it won’t irritate your child’s scalp because it’s hypoallergenic.

LiceMD uses a synthetic lubricant which makes comb-out smooth and easy, even for long, thick or very curly hair. Dimethicone, the primary ingredient in LiceMD, is used as a conditioning agent in many top selling shampoos and has a well-known safety profile.

We don’t currently have a problem with lice in our house, so I didn’t need to use the LiceMD sample I received, but I did open it to see if it truly was odorless. I didn’t smell a thing!
