Deionized water:
(Aqua)

Deionized (purified water/demineralized water):

Deionized water is water that lacks ions, such as cations (positive charged ions) from sodium, calcium, iron, copper and anions (negatively charged ions) such as chloride and bromide. This means it has been purified from most ions. This type of water is produced using an ion exchange process.

Deionized water is similar to distilled water, in that it is useful for where the presence of impurities may be undesirable. The lack of ions causes the water's resistivity (resistivity to an electrical flow) to increase. Ultra-pure deionized water can have a theoretical maximum resistivity up to 1000 times greater than common tap water. This means that pure deionized water is theoretically up to 1000 times more soluble than common tap water.

Aloe Barbadensis
Leaf Extract:

Topically, aloe vera benefits dry and cracked skin, burns, blisters, frostbite, insect bites, and allergic reactions. Topical aloe vera application also helps to assure that when applying aloe products, you will get the highest concentrations of the natural healing agent delivered directly to your skin. When used as part of a daily skin treatment regimen, can help keep your skin healthy.

It has traditionally been used to treat various skin conditions, including psoriasis, eczema, inflammations, burns and wounds. It is also a great skin moisturizer that helps to keep skin supple by bringing oxygen to the cells, and therefore increasing the synthesis and strength of skin tissue.

Studies show that aloe vera improves the skin's ability to hydrate itself, aids in the removal of dead skin cells and has an effective penetrating ability that helps transport healthy substances through the skin.

*Skin MD Natural™ uses a proprietary blend, consisting of 5 separate dimethicones, that offer a very high degree of protection to the skin.

* Antioxidants work in several ways: they may reduce the energy of the free radical**, stop the free radical from forming in the first place, or interrupt an oxidizing chain reaction to minimize the damage caused by free radicals.

** Free radicals are highly reactive compounds that are created in the body during normal metabolic functions or introduced from the environment. Free radicals are inherently unstable, since they contain "extra" energy. To reduce their energy load, free radicals react with certain chemicals in the body, and in the process, interfere with the cells' ability to function normally. In fact, free radicals are believed to play a role in more than sixty different health conditions, including the aging process.

* humectants (hymktnts)
noun

A substance that promotes retention of moisture. Some humectants, such as glycerin, actually draw moisture from the air to further moisturize the skin.

[From Latin hūmectāns, hūmectānt-, present participle of hūmectāre, to moisten, from hūmectus, moist, from hūmēre, to be moist.]

*Why Skin MD is called "Natural"

The word "natural" is used in the personal care products and cosmetic industry as a relative term. There are little to no products, that are any more than marginally effective, that are 100% natural. A wide variety of factors account for this.

If products were produced locally and consumed in a short period of time and not ever subjected to less than ideal conditions then it would be far easier to formulate lotions that are 100% natural. Considering that normal distribution requires products to be shipped in the cargo holds of jets (that typically experience temperatures that exceeds 40 degrees below zero) and have to be transported in trucks across great distances in the winter and that an ever increasing percentage of modern consumers are no longer reading directions or shaking bottles each time before use, well these are some of the hurdles that any formulation must deal with.

Skin MD Natural is over 93% "natural" which is well within the highest echelon of actual percentage of natural ingredients of all products that have the word "natural" on their label. The ingredients in Skin MD Natural that are not "natural" are of food or medical grade and on FDA's most safe list.

Skin MD Natural has the most transparent ingredient disclosure in the industry.

The basic goals that we had in formulating this product was to make it far more effective than any other moisturizing lotion or protective cream while making it as "natural" as practically possible and maintaining a price that was low enough that most people could afford to use it daily. We enlisted 9 cosmetic formulating chemists as well as dermatologists and other doctors over a 6 year period - rejecting more than 600 test batches before approving this formulation.

We have posted the independent laboratory testing, doctor and consumer reviews as well as what literally hundreds of publications have reported. A review of these verifiable, independent, third party materials may enable you to reasonably conclude whether or not we have achieved our goals for this product.
