Skin

The skin is the largest organ of the body. The skin and its derivatives (hair, nails, sweat and oil glands) make up the integumentary system. One of the main functions of the skin is protection. It protects the body from external factors such as bacteria, chemicals, and temperature.

All Humans Share a Common Ancestor Who Lived Thousands of Years Ago in Africa Human skin color ranges in variety from the darkest brown to the lightest hues. An individual's skin pigmentation is the result of genetics, being the product of both of the individual's biological parents' genetic makeup, and exposure to sun.

DARK SKIN - The actual skin color of different humans is affected by many substances, although the single most important substance is the pigment melanin. Melanin is produced within the skin in cells called melanocytes and it is the main determinant of the skin color of darker-skinned humans.

LIGHT SKIN – For the most part, the evolution of light skin has followed different genetic paths in European and East Asian populations. Two genes however, KITLG and ASIP, have mutations associated with lighter skin that have high frequencies in both European and East Asian populations. They are thought to have originated after humans spread out of Africa but before the divergence of the European and Asian lineages many years ago.

Question: How many products have you tried before finding the most safe and effective cream, potion or lotion for your skin type and daily regimen?

With so many products to choose from it can be a chore in finding what works best for you. Every product does not work for everybody. However, doing a little research can save you time and money, as well as preventing any unnecessary skin breakouts from using a product that does not fit you skin type. If you are looking for a more natural approach, we recommend trying a unique blend of all natural ingredients.
