Dry skin is caused by 2 factors. One is the damage to the skin’s protective barrier which produces excessive water loss through the skin. The other is a great reduction in the proportion of the skin’s water-retaining sugar and protein molecules, the intricate proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) molecules.

Many skin moisturizers and emollient products sold by the major skin care producers delay the healing of irritated and damaged skin and make the situation worse by inhibiting natural skin repair. New computer instruments have demonstrated that several popular moisturizers augment skin damage in ways comparable to skin irritants. Nor are skin barrier creams an answer, like those containing petrolatum and lanolin.

What our skin needs is to protect its surface and to heal the skin from within, by putting the skin in a situation in which innate skin repair can happen.

Most if not all the famous moisturizers and emollients currently sold by the major skin care producers contain high proportions of detergents and detergent-like chemicals, despite many years of sound evidence that such detergents degrade the skin’s natural protective function and harm the skin. Also, several of the dyes and optical diffusers used to give the appearance of healthy skin are damaging to skin.

Lipids and fats in the skin provide the epidermal barrier to transcutaneous water loss. These lipids in the external skin area named the stratum corneum are arranged in layers named lamellae. The lower skin layers contain more typical fats like triglycerides and phospholipids while the external layers contain more ceramides, cholesterol and free fatty acids.

Waxes and oils seal the skin’s surface and avoid exaggerated water loss. Cosmetic moisturizers eliminate the skin’s protective barrier and moisturize (wet) the skin proteins but possess the long-term effect of damaging the skin.

A skin-care solution is only as effective as what it contains and how those ingredients can aid your skin work better. In fact, moisturizers (or any skin-care solution claiming to possess an effect on skin repair, wrinkles or sagging skin) must definitely contain an elegant combination of antioxidants, cell-communicating components, and intercellular elements as they help skin keep a normal level of hydration, build collagen and avoid cellular damage.

Not the famous dry skin creams that have been in the market since the 1920′s, when the cosmetic industry started to sell oil/water/detergent creams for moisturizing instead of the herbal oils that had been used for thousands of years. This was comparable to the fallacious campaigns, we may all recall, that intended to stop women from breast feeding their babies and encouraged their replacement with artificial infant formulas sold for profit.

A new skin care product is our latest answer to erase scars and cure all kind of skin ailments. Elaborated with biological ingredients, it guarantees no allergic reactions and no negative side effects.
