Taking Care of Your Skin

The largest organ of the body is the skin, and taking care of it is necessary not only for youthfulness and beauty but also for the health of your body. The skin is the largest access point for the environment to interact with your body, especially as substances applied to the skin have quick access into the bloodstream. Taking care of your skin properly requires consistent and intentional care with a developed skincare routine. Incorporating the necessary skincare products into your routine based on your skin's needs and type is critical for maintaining your skin's health, as well as to achieving the beauty benefits associated with hydrated, cleansed, and healthy skin.

What is a Cleansing Lotion?

Cleansing lotions are cleaning products for the skin, which are formulated in order to remove impurities, pollutants, and makeup from the skin, allowing the organ to breathe and effectively remove toxins from the body. Through a cream formulation, cleansing lotions provide the most effective means of skin purification and allow improvement for its overall health, shine, and appearance.¹

What are the Benefits of a Cleansing Lotion?

Highlighted Ingredient: Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice is commonly known as Aloe Vera and is extracted from the leaves of the Aloe plant. Aloe has been used for thousands of years medicinally across many cultures, and it includes over 200 nutritional substances, including but not limited to 20 minerals, 20 amino acids, 12 vitamins (including A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, E, Choline and Folic Acid), and active enzymes. The vitamins are useful in protecting the skin from free radicals, which can damage skin and cause premature aging. The leaf juice of Aloe Barbadensis can serve as an anti-inflammatory and soothe the skin, even in cases of burns, and can also reduce scars and have wound healing properties. Aloe is also useful in protecting the skin from UV damage through aloin, an herb of aloe that can block up to 30 percent of ultraviolet rays when it's applied to the skin's surface.²

Highlighted Ingredient: Glyceryl Stearate

Glyceryl Stearate is a non-ionic opacifier, thickener, and stabilizer for skincare formulas, and functions as a skin conditioner, moisturizer, and hydrator. Applying glyceryl stearate to the skin provides lubricant to the skin layers, leaving them with a soft and smooth appearance of hydrated skin. Glycerin is also useful in the skin's aquaporins, or water channels, aiding in transport. Aquaporins are integrated membrane proteins that transfer water and small solutes across the skin's cell membrane to its uppermost layers. They are necessary for maintaining the skin's moisture balance, leaving it smooth and hydrated even in drier climates.³
