Over and over you will hear us emphasize the point that what you put on your skin is absorbed into your blood and therefore cells.  We want every product we produce to not only promote beautiful, healthy skin but provide internal health benefits.

Beta glucan is an all natural ingredient backed by a multitude of studies involving decades of research showing its positive, powerful health and beauty benefits.

Beta glucan, when taken orally or applied topically, enhances the natural production of the bodies powerful immune protecting macrophages or Langerhans cells.  These cells are critically important to the health and function of all bodily organs including not only the skin but also the liver, blood and nervous system. 

The skin repairs itself on a continual basis.  It is the macrophages that are primarily responsible for restoring and cleansing damaged skin.  Multiple benefits have been documented from the topical use of beta glucan.  Some are:

• Improved skin hydration
• Reduction of lines and wrinkles
• Improved elasticity and firmness
• Improved skin color
• Increased skin renewal
• Reversal of skin damage from other topical skin chemicals

One of the primary benefits of beta glucan is its ability to enhance immune function.  Maintaining healthy immune function is a critical component of not only overall body health but skin health as well. 

Multiple factors are involved in reversing and preventing skin aging.  Some of the most important are:

• Repairing damage caused by free-radicals
• Providing sufficient antioxidant protection and nutrients
• Restoring and maintaining proper moisture and oil content
• Supporting the health and reproduction capabilities of the skins cells
• Killing undesirable microorganisms living on the skin
• Reducing skin inflammation
• Detoxifying the skin

Most acne is a combination of both inflammatory (modules, cysts, or pustules) and non-inflammatory (open or closed comedones) conditions. 

Properly cleansing your skin will make a huge difference in healing of acne.  It is important not to scrub your face but to gently cleanse your skin.  Scrubbing will actually increase the inflammatory condition causing acne and make the acne breakouts worse.

Purely Clear is adding a new product to our all-natural skin care and mineral makeup line.  The new product is Intensive Acne Serum.  Not only has the product shown to prevent and reduce acne, but it is also an excellent product to shrink enlarged pores. 

Most acne products on the market today use chemicals to either overly dry out the skin or aggressively exfoliate the skin.  Over drying the skin actually causes the skin to produce more oil in the long run to compensate for the dryness which then causes more breakouts and excessive oil production.   Aggressive exfoliation leads to skin damage which can lead to wrinkles and other negative skin issues.  Also, the topical application of chemicals can lead to numerous health issues from endocrine disorders to various cancers. 

One of the primary goals of Purely Clear is to make people aware of the fact that what they put on their skin absorbs into their blood and cells.  Based upon that truth, we produce products that not only produce beautiful, clear, healthy skin, but have beneficial effects on the body as a whole.

Our Intensive Acne Serum helps to nourish and balance the skin cells functioning.  This will help address the acne breakouts in the short run but also helps to promote healthy, beautiful skin for years to come.

A recent study showed that topical application of a cream containing green tea extract provided significant protection to the skin against damaging ultra violet (UV) rays.

Several studies have shown that supplementation with riboflavin (vitamin B2) reduces both the frequency and intensity of headaches by 50% or more.

Research has shown that individuals who regularly use essential oils not only have a higher resistance to colds, flu and other diseases, but actually recover 60-75% faster if they do contract an illness than those who don’t use essential oils.

Almost all commercial cosmetic products that are in any liquid, lotion or cream form will be processed using high heat blending methods and chemical emulsifiers.  They are processed this way to allow for a more consistent blend of the ingredients, especially when water and oil based ingredients are in the same blend.  This processing method also allows for a shelf life in excess of four years.   We do not add any chemical emulsifiers nor do we use high heat methods in the blending and processing of Purely Clear products.

High heat cooking or microwaving of foods destroys beneficial enzymes and nutrients.  It will also destroy and deplete the valuable nutrient content of ingredients used in cosmetics.  Because we use cold processing methods and no chemical emulsifiers, our products need to be shaken before each use.

It is not our goal to make skin care products that last for 4-5 years on store shelves or that even look or smell “pretty.”  It is our goal to use natural ingredients in their most natural, unprocessed form to nourish the skin and body.

Just as the body will be healthier from eating a diet of fresh, natural foods, as opposed to microwaved, processed foods; so the skin will be healthier from using natural unprocessed cosmetics.

As I get older, I notice more and more that I need to have a daily routine to keep my skin looking healthy, clean and wrinkle free.  I prefer the organic, natural products.  There are enough pollutants in the air, so why add more with your toner or moisturizer?

Purely Clear offers a line that works for all skin types.

I don’t get too many blemishes a just a few here and there.  I do have blackheads, a bad T-Zone, and very dry cheeks.  This combo makes it difficult to finding products that will not send my pores into overload.

Purely Clear is different; it cleans without over drying or leaving an oily feeling.  The toner is a blend of oils that don’t dry out your skin and the Intensive Repair and Wrinkle Serum help to balance and moisturize.

To me, this product is a miracle worker.  You feel the difference in minutes, not days or weeks.  My skin is more balanced, not dry or greasy.  The formulas are concentrated, so a little goes a long way and the small bottles last for months.

I suggest that everyone check out the Web site and give it a try.  I have passed Purely Clear along to my mom and sister and they love it.
