Minerals and Their Importance to Our Skin and Overall Health.

Five to six percent of the human body is comprised of minerals, which are essential for maintaining the health and well being of all organs, including our skin. It is no wonder minerals are everywhere in the beauty industry today.
And just applying minerals topically may be not enough. It is important to also get minerals from outside sources by eating mineral-rich foods, and by taking multi-vitamins.
Some companies such as Ahava have been using minerals in their products for years, and know that this is not just a trend. While other manufacturers are just starting to explore how to best use minerals in skin care products, Ahava has already perfected this science. All of their products are formulated with Mineral Skin Osmoter™, a proprietary complex of 21 scientifically balanced minerals found in the Dead Sea. And yes, MSO is clinically proven to improve skin’s health by optimizing the natural cell function of moisture replenishment.
I have yet to try any products from Ahava, but I hope to soon. If you have used any Ahava skin care products, please let me know what your favorites are and I will add them to the top of my list.
