Understanding the Unique Benefits of Milk Thistle In Skincare
Milk Thistle is a herb that is often used to promote liver health, although it has a range of other benefits too. The active ingredient in Milk Thistle is the flavonoid silymarin,[4] which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This makes it great for supporting a healthy immune system and may also help to reduce the symptoms of various chronic conditions. Our formulations use Silybum Marianum Ethyl Ester that is derived from Milk Thistle oil. Additionally, Milk Thistle has been found to aid digestion, improve overall gut health and have detoxifying properties. When it comes to your skin, since Milk Thistle is rich in antioxidants, it helps to neutralize free radicals that damage and cause stressed skin.[5] Milk Thistle contains a high amount of linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid from the omega-6 family. This fatty acid is naturally found in the skin barrier, contributing to its overall composition. Additionally, it helps to reduce inflammation, making it a valuable ingredient for people experiencing acne, rosacea, and psoriasis. What’s more is that Milk Thistle is a great alternative for silicon and provides nutrients that support the production of collagen, the protein that keeps our skin looking firm and youthful. So, if you’re looking for a way to enhance your skincare routine, Perle D’Eau which contains Milk Thistle, should definitely be on your radar!

Harnessing the Power of Sea Salt to Cleanse and Detoxify Skin
The ocean holds many secrets, and one of them is the power of sea salt to cleanse and detoxify skin. The Mediterranean Sea has high salinity meaning that it contains sea salt. Sea salt contains many minerals that are beneficial for the skin, such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium. When used in skincare, sea salt can help remove impurities, unclog pores, and improve skin texture. It is also known to have a calming effect on the skin, which can help reduce inflammation and redness. Whether you have oily, dry, or sensitive skin, sea salt can work wonders. It is best to use it a few times a week as a product, do not try DIYs and do not mix them with Retinoids or Salicylic Acid![7]Or go for a swim at your nearest body of water with sea salt!
All in all, it is clear that tapping into the power of Mediterranean ingredients like Padina Pavonica, Milk Thistle, Chicory Root and Sea Salt can provide a variety of beneficial results for skin health and appearance. Not only does using these ingredients have an effect on how your skin feels and looks, but also they can help protect it from environmental damage and influence your skin confidence!
