Dry Facial Skin - Biological Treatment

Dry skin at its worst can be known as dermatitis, ichthyiosis, or eczema.

It is extremely important for you to consult a doctor when affected by such serious skin conditions. Diagnosing yourself wrong can lead to further damage, and even more irritation. If you treat yourself for the wrong ailing, or a specific symptom of a complex skin problem, you may delay effective treatment of a serious underlying problem. If you don’t know what you really have then you can’t treat it.

Rough dry facial skin is usually characterized by its tight, rough feel and its dull appearance; it is most common in the outer layers of your skin. The cells you see in the outer layer of the skin are made in the lowest layer of the skin; also know as the basal layer. As these cells rise to the top layer they begin to go through several altered changes, including an increase amount of keratin production. About 80% of your body is made up of keratinocytes, composed of the soft protein known as keratin.

The outermost layer of skin is called the epidermis, from the Greek words, epi (top) and derma (skin). Like other layers of skin the epidermis is stratified, each layer possessing unique characteristics, functions and interactive abilities.

The renewal of the epidermis is done by keratinocytes that makes up 85 percent of cells in the epidermis. Keratin, a fibrous protein, fills the cells as they migrate up through the strata, gradually flattening until their nucleus begins to fall apart. When this occurs an adhesive of ceramides, lipids, cholesterol and free saturated fatty acids is released binding cells together. This in effect helps the epidermis create a water insoluble, protective protein barrier in the horny layer or outermost layer of the skin. These keratin filled nucleus free flattened cells account for 95 percent of all protein in the epidermis.

Keratin needs a great amount of water to remain pliable and healthy. When there is not enough water the keratin dissolves as they can no longer hold together. This is what happens when your skin becomes dry. When the water content of your body drops below 10% it gets rough, chapped, and scaly. Your skin surface contains 10-20% water; when there is too little water in the epidermis it loses it flexibility, itches, and cracks. A way must be found to keep the water trapped in the epidermis to keep the keratin healthy and supple.

General Tips for Dry Facial Skin:
There are several ways of preventing dry skin and also causing it from further worsening. Avoid the use of tap water to clean the affected area, the deposits of minerals and chemicals in water are very drying on the skin. Don’t use any rough wash cloths to cleanse your skin because it could cause further irritation. Dry skin needs plenty of gentle cleansing, a regular stimulating massage of generous amounts of oils and moisturizers. Using a moisturizer increases the water content of the outer layer of your skin, giving it a soft moist glow.

Many facial cleansers can also cause patches of dry skin or a dermatitis flare up. Using non-scented non-detergent neutral-pH products to cleanse your skin can help prevent dry areas from occurring. Following your bath or shower lightly dry your skin leaving it somewhat moist and apply BIOSKINCARE cream. Be generous with the cream around your eyes and cheek areas.

There are several home remedies that you can do to help sooth and heal dry chapped skin. Taking a milk bath once a week helps to sooth and nourishes your skin. Warm your bath water and put a couple of scoops of powdered milk, a couple drops of almond oil and a few drops of your favorite perfume or bath oils. Just lay back relax and let the milk soak your skin and nourish it. After bathing apply BIOSKINCARE cream to the dry skin areas, this will further enhance the healing process.

Keeping a humidifier in your room at night or a pan of boiling water in the house can put moisture in the air. This is good for colder climates because there is less moisture. Stay out of over heated rooms, avoid sudden temperature changes, and protect yourself from the wind and cold environments. When in the sun also use a SPF moisturizer and keep your skin covered either with a hat or scarf.

Every once in a while it may be wise to exfoliate your skin with a facial mask, to help remove dull, dry surface skin. Use a natural face mask and not one that contains bleaching and harsh chemicals such as benzoyl peroxide or alcohol.

You can also give yourself a homemade facial, boil water, and dump it into a bowl or pot. Then add a few drops of your favorite oils such as lavender, rose hip oil, almond oil, etc. Also a couple teaspoons of your favorite dry herbs, like rosemary. Keep your face at a comfortable distance from the water but close enough that the steam penetrates your skin and pores. You can also put a towel over your head and surrounding the pot to keep the steam in. After about 15 minutes, splash your face with cold water and gently pat it dry. Apply BIOSKINCARE cream after your facial for the best moisturizing results.

Many people don't realize but keeping a healthy diet can determine your skin type, and how moisturized your skin is. Considering that your body is made up of 80% water then having less water in your body leads to dry skin.

Treat Dry Facial Skin

BIOSKINCARE is made with natural substances and can be safely used after cleansing or showering for your dry skin relief.

The natural biological ingredient in BIOSKINCARE is collected from live snails which secrete it copiously to repair, protect and hydrate their skin. It is the result of evolution's beautiful system of trial and error working over millions of years to create a biological solution for those harmless little creatures that need to keep their skin supple and perfectly hydrated as it is exposed nude to sun radiation, hazards, attacks by opportunistic microorganisms when injured and environmental pollution.

We all know that a skin-care product is only as good as what it contains and how these ingredients can help our skin function better. In fact, moisturizers (or any skin-care product claiming to have an effect on severely dry skin) should absolutely contain an elegant mix of antioxidants, cell-communicating ingredients, and intercellular substances as they help skin keep a normal level of hydration, build collagen, reduce skin discolorations, and prevent cellular damage.

The biologically active ingredient in BIOSKINCARE is a natural compound that includes: antioxidants (that also have anti-inflammatory properties), cell-communicating ingredients, enzymes that accomplish the same as exfoliation but without any irritation or damage to the skin, and ingredients that mimic the skin’s structure.

Cell-communicating ingredients interact with skin cells via receptor sites or cellular pathways that essentially allow these substances to communicate with a cell to balance or function properly. That is, they instruct the cell to repair itself and act normally by reducing inflammation, encouraging production of healthy skin substances, destroying substances that cause collagen to break down, and balancing the amounts of sebum produced.

Intercellular substances, which are often referred to as "ingredients that mimic skin structure," should be the backbone of every moisturizer. Intercellular substances are those ingredients that exist naturally in skin, and that work to hold skin cells together. A dry environment, sun damage, irritation, inflammation, and environmental extremes can all greatly reduce the presence of these substances in skin. Adding intercellular substances to a moisturizer helps keep the layers of skin whole, resilient, and in good physical shape by providing the materials your skin needs to defend against the environment. Ingredients such as glycerin, phospholipids, and glycosaminoglycans (hyaluronic acid) are essential for helping skin function normally.

BIOSKINCARE works in fact as if it where an over the counter therapeutic composition, but the humble truth is that it is nothing else than a natural skin care product made with a substance as it is found in nature, and combined with other natural ingredients that further enhance its properties. It is not made with some isolates or drug derived from the snail substance, but it is transformed from a viscose fluid into a convenient, odorless, white cream for use on the skin.

Many of our customers have used it successfully to treat various types of burns, dermatitis, eczema, diaper rash, and difficult to heal wounds and to prevent actinic keratosis from developing into skin cancer formations, not only for very dry skin.

With the application of BIOSKINCARE cream you no longer have to deal with severely dry skin. Follow a healthy diet, drink plenty of water, and apply this wonderful cream provided by nature for the best dry skin treatment.

What Others Say About Dry Skin?

This is my second time to purchase your incredible cream! I have been extremely happy with the results thus far. My skin's texture has improved tremendously. My pores have all but vanished and the scarring I had has dramatically improved. Thanks so much!!!
Tina Doomes. AI, US.

This is my second order. I was so happy to find a product that truly works. I had a couple bad acne spots on my cheeks and chin that would never clear up. I started using this cream and within a few days I noticed the acne was not coming back. I have been using the cream for at least a month now and I will say my cheeks have never looked this good in about a year. The dark sports are quite a bit lighter also. No more red spots either on my chin. This truly is a terrific product. I have tried everything to clear up these problem spots. Now all I do is use the glycolic cleanser to clean my face and then apply the cream. After it absorbs into my skin (it is not greasy) I start feeling my skin is truly moisturized. THANK YOU!!!!

Thanks, Juliann Cloyd, SD, USA.
