1 teaspoon or a bit less does the whole face. Sometimes we copy what is out there. And make it better.
Way better! One of our customers(Michelle) asked me how come we don't
make a skin wash for acne with sulfur as the active ingredient. Michelle
was using another company's product at the opposite time of day from our
acne treatment. She believed this gave her clearer skin. I wanted to
know what she was using. She said the cost of the product was killing
her. She mentioned one from a well known
billion dollar company that spends a fortune advertising. It was a 4 1/2
ounce product that costs $43.00. She asked me if we could make one like
it. I looked at the ingredients and I said YES! I wanted to
do one that was better. For a lot lower price.
Comparing theirs to ours:
Theirs had 3% sulfur as the anti acne ingredient. I have studied this
ingredient and 3% just isn't enough. So we doubled it to 6%. We use
Organic Sulfur (MSM). Not sure what form of sulfur they use. We do
know that Organic Sulfur definitely controls the bacteria responsible
for acne.
They use artificial soaps as the washing agent. Ours has natural soap.
Naturally.
They had a couple of anti acne extracts in it. Ours has 15 Anti Acne
Herbs. These are better than just weak extracts. We use herbs that are
concentrated and take up a big portion of the product.
They do use Aloe Vera. We do too. We use the real stuff, 100X at $100 a
pound. Not sure what they use. Some companies are using aloe
substitutes.
They use fragrances, we use real essential oils.
They had a lot of unpronounceable ingredients in it, ours has 15 anti
acne herbs.
They use ingredients like C13-14 Isoparaffin which is another word for
mineral oil. We don't use mineral oil, ever. They charge $43.00 for 4 1/2 ounces. Ours is 8 ounces for less than $20. How can we make a better product for less?
Our
advertising budget is ZERO. So a big part of the costs of all products you buy is
paying for the advertising to get you to buy it. Ironic, isn't it? With zero advertising dollars
, we have to make products that work or we
won't get reorders. And if we don't get reorders, we are out of
business. We have thrived since 1999, doing just that.
Michelle got an early test of this wash. She was the one who suggested
it. We have since made a few changes. Hi Steve, I wanted to let you know that I received the sulfur wash last
week and have been using it every evening. So far I love it! It is a
bit drying, but I've been fine using moisturizer. I plan to finish
the bottle and then give you my in-depth feedback. It's a good sign that my sensitive skin did not react negatively
to the wash when I started using it. My face usually breaks out when
I change my cleansing routine, but it didn't with this wash. Very excited to use this wash! Thank you for making it! Michelle
To counteract the drying effect of this early version, we added in more
Aloe Vera. Unless you have oily skin, we recommend using one of our
moisturizers afterwards. Ingredients: In order of prominence. Reverse Osmosis is the gold standard of water. Obviously we
wanted fast absorption. Using a water with any hard water components or
contaminants would slow down this absorption. Most companies use
'purified' water. Which may or may not be as good. Might seem like a
minor point, but I saw a huge difference in the quality of our products
when we switched from 'just purified' about 15 years ago. We now only
use R-O Water. NATURAL SOAP cleanser MSM 6%
(methylsulfonylmethane)
is an organosulfur compound sold as a dietary supplement. While MSM is found in
nature, it is only found in minute amounts. Therefore, even though it is
a natural remedy, it is has to be synthesized to be produced in
commercial quantities. MSM is found in all living things. It is believed to originate from
planktons in the sea. MSM is used to treat allergies, arthritis and skin diseases. It provides
sulfur which is needed in the production of collagen in the skin. This
allows the flexibility of the skin and prevents premature aging. The sulfur contribution is also essential to the importance of MSM in
acne treatment. Beyond improving skin health, MSM can help kill off
Propionibacterium acnes bacteria. More importantly, it has anti-inflammatory
properties which help resolve the nodules and cysts associated with
acne.
ALOE VERA Aloe vera is a popular home
remedy for skin infections. It can be applied topically or taken orally.
There are 2 major ways by which Aloe vera can benefit acne sufferers. First, it is a great moisturizer and
cleanser. This popular herbal remedy can penetrate the layers of the
skin to nourish the follicles and soothe skin irritation. It can also
speed up the healing of acne scars. Secondly, Aloe vera contains at least 6 antiseptic agents which can
provide a broad antimicrobial cover for the skin. Therefore, the herb
can kill off the bacteria and fungi which cause or worsen acne symptoms.
BASIL (Ocimum basilicum) Yes the Italian herb.
Basil is a plant with anti inflammatory and antibacterial properties,
making it ideal for treating acne.
BURDOCK ROOT (Arctium lappa) Burdock has been an important medicinal
herb in Western folk medicine and in traditional Chinese medicine for
thousands of years, primarily valued for its blood cleansing and skin
healing properties. The entire plant is edible and is a popular
vegetable in Asia, particularly in Japan. More recently, burdock has
been an ingredient in hair tonics for stimulating hair growth and in
cosmetics with modern studies revealing its efficacy as a cosmetic
treatment for mature skin.
CALENDULA (Calendula officinalis) is an
herb known for lowering inflammation.
DANDELION (Taraxacum
officinale) Dandelion is a sunny, subtle, yet incredibly healing plant
used for thousands of years in China and mentioned in traditional
Arabian medicine in the tenth century C.E. It has been used for
centuries, in traditional medicine practices all over the world, as a
restorative tonic, edible food, and in herbal wines and beers. The root
is a favorite amongst traditional herbalists as it supports the healthy
functioning of the liver, kidneys, spleen, and gallbladder9-13 and is
considered to be a reliable detoxifying agent.
DONG QUAI ( Angelica sinensis ) dong quai has
exhibited both anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory act ivity.
ECHINACEA (Echinacea purpurea) You may
think of Echinacea as an herb that is useful for boosting the immune
system, but the herb also has anti-acne properties. Echinacea’s biggest
benefit is its ability to reduce inflammation, making pimples appear
smaller and fade faster. It has also been shown in clinical trials to
have a hydrating benefit when applied topically to the face. This is
useful for those who have acne as numerous acne treatments cause dry,
irritated skin.
GOTU KOLA (Centella asiatica) A
member of the parsley family, gotu kola is a well-known scar remedy.
Applying gotu kola to wounds and even acne eruptions can reduce
scarring. It helps to increase blood flow to wounds, reduce the
formation of excess scar tissue, and improve skin elasticity. Gotu kola’s active constituents are triterpenes, steroid-like compounds
that have a balancing effect on connective tissues. These triterpenes
increase the function and structural integrity of the collagen matrix
and support the basic “glue” that holds our cells together. The leaves
are anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. In several studies, research has confirmed that gotu kola compounds
promote rapid healing in wounds. The herb has been found to actually
heal and promote the growth of new skin, gently closing and repairing
even lesions and skin ulcers. Several studies have shown impressive
results in the treatment of even dramatically damaged skin.
GUM GUGGAL ( Commiphora
wightii .
) Guggul, the Commiphora mukul, is a small thorny tree that
is native to the Middle East and the Indian plains. Generally leafless,
the tree exudes a thick, sticky resin that has been used in Ayurvedic
medicine for centuries. Guggul, whose Sanskrit name means "one that
protects against diseases", has written historical information about it
going back to 1000 B.C.E. It was used at that time for "clearing the
coating and obstruction of channels". The gum exuded by the guggul tree
is similar to myrrh, and has been used traditionally in the same ways as
myrrh.
LICORICE ROOT (Glycyrrhiza glabra) Licorice
root is one of the most widely used medicinal herbs worldwide and is the
single most used herb in Chinese medicine today. It was used by the
Egyptians as a flavoring for a drink called Mai-sus, and large
quantities were found in the tomb of King Tut for his trip into the
afterlife. Pliny the Elder recommended it to clear the voice and
alleviate thirst and hunger. Dioscides, when traveling with Alexander
the Great, recommended that his troops carry and use licorice to help
with stamina for long marches, as well as for thirst in areas of
drought. In the Middle Ages it was taken to alleviate the negative
effects of highly spicy or overcooked food. In a recent survey of
Western medical herbalists, licorice ranked as the 10th most important
herb used in clinical practice. An astonishing number of Chinese herbal
formulas (over 5,000) use licorice to sweeten teas and to "harmonize"
contrasting herbs. Its first documented use dates back to the time of
the great Chinese herbal master Zhang Zhong Zhing, about 190 AD, but it
was certainly used for many centuries prior to this.
NEEM (Azadirachta indica) Long known in Ayurdevic
medicine in India, modern research has been confirming the traditional
uses of the neem tree in Indian folk medicine. Its many properties and
uses have given neem the reputation as Friend and Protector in Indian
villages. The neem tree is native to India, and has been used in so many
ways that it's difficult to count them all.
OLIVE LEAF ( Olea
Europaea ), A particular
favorite of ours now. Olive leaf supports healthy skin.
OREGON GRAPE (Mahonia aquifolium) Oregon
grape is used both topically and internally to treat acne. Studies
indicate that oregon grape can reduce sebum production, which is linked
with causing acne breakouts. The same effects are realized when used
internally or externally. The herb also contains properties that have
been shown to kill acne-causing bacteria on the skin and improve
digestion.
RED CLOVER (Trifolium
pratense L.) is traditionally used to support healthy
skin.
VITEX BERRIES ( Vitex
agnus castus ) Supports healthy
skin. Has been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicines.
YUCCA ( Yucca
glauca). American Indians used this root as a shampoo. But the
preparation can be difficult. It does cleanse the hair, without lather.
It also works as a very good skin cleanser. Natural Essential Oils. Sweet Orange Germall plus (diazolidinyl Urea,
