Product Information

Our go-to product for over 20 years in clinics and spas. Three ingredients. Our avocado oil extract available nowhere else gives this bar the magic touch toward soft, supple skin.

Special use #1: after waxing when the skin is tender and rapidly re-forming a hard outer layer that often leads to ingrown hair, the FACE & BODY BAR will keep the surface soft, hygienic and free of “in-groans.”

Special use # 2: unstable, rough textured skin goes away. If you had to take one product with you to the ends of the earth, this is the one.

Special use # 3: after a day outside, in strong weather, with sunburn, windburn, drying, perspiring, blowing dust, name it - wash with this. Nothing like it.

Skincare Concerns

Simplicity in a skincare routine is the most important factor for many

Use the FACE & BODY BAR, rinse, and while skin is still wet add a smidgen of REMEDY, smooth in as a leave-on, and that will do it.

Introduction

This is a surprisingly versatile product. Any skin type or condition (except dermatitis) can use and benefit from FACE & BODY BAR.

As we advocate alternating among our cleansers as a way of keeping your skin alert (and this actually saves you money) and toned, the FACE & BODY BAR like REVIVE can be brought into play by everyone.

The key is our own specially prepared avocado oil extract that we incorporate to soften the skin. Softness sounds like sagging, but in fact it describes a visible improvement arising from deep down in the skin with processes that provides turgor and resilience.

HOW TO USE:

1. Wet hands and apply.

2. Add warm water to work up a creamy feel.

3. Add more warm water to remove and rinse well.

4. Done.

No squeaky, dry, taut feel; just soft, mild, natural response.

For your skin if these conditions exist:

All but dermatitis

Not for your skin if these conditions exist:

Dermatitis

Recommended frequency of use:

As needed but prefer alternating with REVIVE, and any lotion cleanser, like 302 CLEANSER. The more the better. Variety is the key to stable skin, but only if that variety is mild, mild, mild.

Actives while using FACE & BODY BAR:

Any

Other leave-ons acceptable:

Any

Avoid:

Scrubs

Acid peels

Benzoyl peroxide

This is where most skincare goes wrong. It’s the chemistry at fault. Marketers instruct formulators to make foam. Foam sells. The formulator, who must work his hands in that foam, knows that foam is bad. It dries and defats the skin. Strips it. In a short time the skin is sub-clinically (as in not yet visible) or clinically (as in visible) inflamed.

The wrong cleanser can ruin your skin for everything you put on after that. It can turn the most promising active you have purchased into a time bomb because of a noticeable increase in histamine response. Alarm bells in the skin go off. You then put on an active and may be quickly thrown into inflammation. Over time the skin weakens, at best. You think it is the active. It’s the cleanser.

Cleansers today are stealth skin killers. Day by day. Smell great, too. But you’re buying a problem.

Foam sells. The folks who lament the use of certain anionic surfactants like the arch villain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) apparently ignore the real issue. And the real issue? Foam.

To get foam, big thick creamy foam, you must link together various surfactants. Chief among these are betaines. Look on any label proclaiming it is SLS free - you will find betaines. Look on any cleanser label for that matter. Betaines are serious skin irritants, far more so than SLS and they are used to link to primary anionics to form Big Foam. This is often augmented by the use of amides…anyway, the chemistry is involved, but you get the point.

Your goal in cleansing your face is to remove the bad and preserve the good. That cannot be done with long chain highly charged surfactants that make Big Foam. Try asking your dog to eat with a fork.

We have several lotion cleansers and a great FACE & BODY BAR and a cleansing helper of dry minerals. They are all very mild and give you the advantage of washing your skin without also setting up a first rate histamine reaction. No betaines, no amides, only ultra mild amphoterics and cationic surfactants in our lotion cleansers.

Read through each one. You won’t go wrong no matter which you choose - though our ACNE SULFUR CLEANSER is probably not for cool grandmas.

We recommend you have two and three cleanser alternatives. REVIVE is a cleanser and moisturizer especially formulated for unstable skin. It is not in the list here as a cleanser but consider that as your second cleanser. A third cleanser would be FACE & BODY BAR.

If you will rotate through these during the week the results of improved texture, resilience, tone and brightening are unmistakable.
