Calming Skin Therapy Moisturizer - 50ml - Aubrey Organics

Skin Health

The skin is the largest organ in the body. It has several important functions. It acts as a barrier to the external environment including harmful microbes, chemicals and radiation. It allows the exchange of water and some nutrients. It can eliminate toxins, minerals and other substances that have built up inside the body.
It modifies vitamins, like vitamin D, into more active forms. It helps to regulate body temperature. It is a monitor as to the health of our internal environment because the skin is one of the last organs to be nourished. Signs of deficiency often show in the skin before other areas of the body have been affected.

Healthy skin also impacts on our mental and emotional well-being because skin is one of the first things we notice when we see someone. Skin can be used to judge a person's age, social status and health. Billions of dollars are spent each year in the cosmetics and personal hygiene industry. A great majority of this is to make our skin look healthier and more youthful. What can we do naturally to help our skin so that it will be healthy and maintain its youthful appearance?

Skin is made up of several layers. The epidermal outer layer contains keratinized skin cells. It is the fibrous, protective shield for the body. The epidermis is firmly attached to inner layers of irregular connective tissue, the dermis. The dermis contains collagen, the structural support, and elastin, the stretchy support. Only the dermis has blood supply, nutrients reach the outer skin layers only by diffusion.



TESTIMONIALS

This line is absolutely amazing. I have combination oily skin that is also acne prone, and I find that traditional acne face wash products dry my skin out way too much, therefore causing more oil (counterproductive!). The Blue Green Algae cleanser leaves my skin feeling so clean, but never tight or dry, and I'm much less oily than I used to be. I use very little product because a little goes a long way. I use the cleansing lotion in conjunction with the toner and I've gotten amazing results!

I really do like this product! I have oily, acne-prone skin and this works quite nicely. My skin is also somewhat sensitive, so I like this cleanser as it doesn't irritate my skin at all. It works well for oily skin, but I'd advise cleansing every night and morning if you can; this cleanser helps keep the greasiness at bay. I think it works pretty good for acne, as well. So far I have had less break-outs and some of the acne on my chin is clearing up! The product itself has a creamy texture and thicker consistency. It has a very pleasant, fresh, clean smell too. The colour is like a pearly white. (Kind of hard to explain) Congratulations, Aubrey Organics! The Blue Green Algae Facial Cleansing lotion gets a four star rating in my book!

SUPER PRODUCT. GREAT FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE BREAKOUTS. FOR SOME REASON I KEEP COMING BACK TO THIS ONE, AND I THINK I'M GOING TO STICK WITH IT THIS TIME. I USE IT IN THE MORNING AND WHEN I GO TO BED AT night. If your acne is really bad, apply the Amino Derm gel at night. Use a moisturizer in the day. This is still my favorite.

This is an excellent cleanser for combination skin that tends to get a bit oily. I had been trying one product regimen after another for months, but nothing I tried effectively and thoroughly cleaned my skin without stripping it. The Blue Green Algae cleanser not only gets my skin totally clean without over drying, but also removes makeup. I credit the Blue Green Algae collection with normalizing oil production on my face, and greatly improving my complexion.

This is a fantastic cleanser! I use it each morning and it leaves my skin so clean, yet still soft. It took a while to adjust to the lack of lather, but this cleanser definitely doesn't lack effectiveness! It has done wonders for clearing my skin and restoring its texture and I love the scent. I am definitely hooked on this product!
