Product Science

Skin is the largest organ of the human body. Its main function is to protect from physical trauma and guard against harmful substances and external threats. Skin consists of three layers, epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. Epidermis can be further classified into the stratum corneum and the viable epidermis. Human skin is in a constant stage of renewal. The desquamation of cells on the skin's surface is naturally replaced by renewal of the epidermis, a process undertaken by the keratinocytes. The keratinocytes divide in the epidermis to produce two identical cells. One cell remains static in order to divide again, the other migrates to the upper layer. As they move towards the upper layers, the keratinocytes flatten, and secrete a cement made up of lipids and fatty acids which increases solidity between the cells and thereby contributes to making the epidermis an effective defensive barrier. This process is similar to a brick and mortar structure. Ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils are specifically designed to imitate these natural lipids in your skin.

For skin to remain smooth and supple, it needs to maintain an adequate moisture level. Daily exposure to sun, excessive use of soaps and detergents, and aggression such as shaving can result in dry, chapped, irritated skin. But external threats are not the only source of irritation. Aging can cause physiological changes in the skin. As we age, the natural strength and elasticity in our skin layers decline. Renewal of the skin and the capability of binding moisture can become slower, resulting in thin and brittle skin. By preventing excessive moisture loss from the body, lipids play an important role in moisture retention. Ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils spread easily and absorb quickly, effectively hydrating and ultimately supporting the structure of the skin. Medical conditions relating to scaly skin arise from the connection of cells on the surface of the stratum corneum. When cells are manufactured at a normal rate this process is invisible because the scales consist of individual cells. When keratinocytes are produced faster than they can be sloughed off, as in psoriasis, or eczema (atopic dermatitis) where the cells are imperfectly formed, the cells do not detach properly. Disorders such as these cause moisture loss and a weakened protection barrier, increasing the penetration of microscopic chemical irritants into the skin's surface. Crotchguard Skin Care products increase stratum corneum hydration without effecting the natural behavior of the skin, creating a healthy attractive appearance.

Ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils utilize a stringent control process to deliver a consistent level of quality and purity. Every batch of product is expected to reach the same high standards. Crotchguard can assure you that every product in our line is guaranteed to be non-occlusive, hypo-allergenic and anti-bacterial. The patented innovation is in the formulation! Ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils do NOT contain perfumes, dyes, alcohol or coloring agents that can irritate already sensitive skin. Designed for all skin types ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils are water free. Ordinary moisturizers contain water, as result, a preservative must be used. Ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils do NOT contain preservatives of any kind. By comparison, mineral, animal and vegetable oils all contain thousands of different compounds which are impossible to control and define.

Due to its composition, ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils spread efficiently and absorb completely into the surface of the skin. They do NOT form a greasy non-breathable film on the skin. As a result, an effective defense barrier is formed within the skin making it difficult for impurities, microbes and chemicals to penetrate dry, cracked and damaged skin. The ultimate design of Crotchguard Skin Care products is based on strengthening and restoring the moisture content of the outer skin layer. Dry and brittle skin becomes more flexible, the bacteriostatic properties prevent the growth of microbes improving the overall condition of the skin. We are certain you will be pleased with the moisturizing and healing benefits of ultra pure Crotchguard Skin Care Oils.
