What is a Nano-particle?
The composition of a nano-particle is very similar to the composition of a Liposome. Both are spherical membranes encapsulated in phosphatidylcholine- a natural product found in the wall of cells in the skin.
These nanoparticles provide an excellent delivery system for essential fatty acids. The nanoparticles liquefy on contact with the skin, allowing only the active ingredients to penetrate through the top layers; leaving the nano-particle itself behind. Not only does the phosphatidylcholine assist with the penetration of active ingredients but feeding the skin with these nano-particles is essentially feeding the cells more of their own membrane, aiding in growing and repair of cells.
What is a Liposome?
We often hear about the use of Liposomes within skin care products, but why are they so fantastic? A Liposome is a tiny bubble (vesicle), made out of the same material as a cell membrane. Liposomes can be used to deliver ingredients and actives to the cells where they will be used.

The Clarisonic
I have harped on about how we over-wash our skins and how it can actually be the cause of most of our skin complaints. The Clarisonic you allows you to get the clean feeling without the chance of striping the natural oils from the skin or compromising the skin.
It was created by the makers of the Sonicare tooth brush and the idea is the brush does not rotate but vibrates in an oscillating motion meaning it’s gentle to the skin.

DMS – The new approach to dry skin
Cream with Derma-Membrane Structure (DMS)
New Approach for the Care of Dry Skin
Disturbances of the epidermal lipid barrier play an essential role in the pathogenesis of dry skin and dermatoses connected with this skin condition. An amelioration of the barrier function is therefore given priority in the care of dry skin. Additional targets include an increase of the moisture content and a smoothing of the skin. These requirements are met by a new cream with derma-membrane structure (Physiogel® cream, Stiefel Laboratories) offering advantages due to its innovative galenics and carefully selected ingredients compared with conventional o/w- and w/o- emulsions.
Corneotherapy
The Stratum Corneum otherwise known as the top layer of skin, was long thought as just a by product of other, more important processes. Research has now proved the Stratum Corneum as the primary function of the epidermis. The stratum corneum’s main aim in life is to keep unwanted irritants and antigens out while keeping much-needed skin moisture in.
