The skin is the largest organ of the body and is made up of three distinct layers the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layer. It is a living organ that breathes and continuously renews it self. It is waterproof and a defense against trauma and infection; it is also sensory, regulates the body temperature, and can readily absorb substances applied topically. Absorption via the skin takes place in the dermis, substances enter the main blood stream via tiny capillaries where assimilation begins. In the case of acne disorders, when stripping the skin of its natural moisture the sensory receptors in the skin send a signal to the brain indicating that your face is dry and needs more moisture. The body responses by producing OIL (sebum) in abundance. A vicious cycle has been entered upon. The more naturally occurring oil that is removed with harsh products, is the more sebum the body will naturally produce. The results will be the formations of fine lines and wrinkle and a skin disorder that is never under control or balanced.

Trans-dermal absorption, your skins ability to absorb substances involves your entire body. As a substance travels throughout the body, it passes through various organs, which are designed to filter and store what is beneficial, and eliminate what is not. Through the ages, nature has provided an abundance of natural skincare solutions in the form of plant and marine botanicals, clays and salts that the body can assimilate without toxic or harmful side effects.
