EXTREME DRY SKIN
Dry skin is a result of a breakdown of the skin’s essential barrier function which, when healthy, will keep skin hydrated without extreme measures. Trillium’s Body products nurture and support the barrier function of the skin without exposure to synthetics and other irritants.
Organic Body Products by Trillium Organics are designed to cleanse, moisturize and protect skin, organically. Our approach is simple
-
cleanse skin gently
-
apply nourishing oils to hydrated skin
-
avoid exposures to transdermal toxins
Trillium’s Dry skin prevention protocol
-
Organic Body Polish your entire body every other time your bathe.
-
Use Organic Body Soap on your body, if limbs are dry, go easy or skip applying soap on your extremities.
-
Before your skin is completely dry, apply Organic Body Oil to entire body, for a lighter application, apply to wet skin, for a richer application pat dry first, and then apply oils.
-

Other helpful lifestyle choices that will support your healthy skin

-
Refrain from using conventional body wash or lotion.
-
Limit your intake of dehydrating liquids such as coffee and alcohol.
At Trillium, we believe that synthetic preservatives in body wash and lotion are responsible for the widespread breakdown of the barrier function of the skin. Preservatives such as parabens or phenoxyethanol are broad spectrum anti microbials. Our skin is host to a plethora of microbes which are beneficial to healthy dermal functions which include the barrier function. Applying synthetically preserved lotions to the skin is analogous to dosing your gut with antibiotics. Only the most aggressive microbes survive, and they have a lot of unoccupied surface area to inhabit. It creates an unhealthy imbalance of the skin, which results in unhealthy skin function, and ultimately pathology, such as extreme dry skin. At Trillium Organics, we use no synthetic preservatives; rather, we have developed our systems to provide you with fresh organic emollients and active botanicals without the transdermal toxins.
Trillium takes pride in our certified organic, mild, nourishing ingredients. We make these products for people who really want or really need it to be clean.
