Importance and Benefits of Neolaia’s Purify Line Soaps

Your skin is your body’s quiet sentinel — it helps protect your body from agents that can harm it, such as chemical and environmental toxins, pollutants and irritants. Let’s call these harmful substance “Agents of Skincare Doom.” Many of us try to actively minimize our exposure to these agents of skincare doom: we eat certified organic foods, take supplements and teas to detoxify our body, drink purified bottled water and even use air purifiers in our homes. Yet we don’t consider that these agents of skincare doom are constantly barraging our skin, our body’s largest organ, and can enter our bodies through our skin. Yes— there is an immense benefit in detoxifying our skin.

As the human body’s largest and only exterior organ, your skin regularly comes into contact with pollutants every day. In addition to the dirt and bacteria it touches, skin also absorbs any chemicals in the soaps you use to wash yourself. For this reason, commercial soaps are not the best choice to detoxify the skin. Commercially manufactured soaps are likely to contain synthetic chemicals and additives that often compromise their benefit to the skin and overall body. These include synthetic, man-made derivatives such as chemical hardeners, chemical additives to preserve and extend the shelf life of the product, chemical foaming agents and artificial fragrances. Phew! We really need to read product labels to make sure we are not inadvertently adding toxins to our bodies and polluting our body’s largest organ each time we reach for a bar soap. If we are really serious about minimizing the casual and inadvertent toxins we introduce into our bodies, we should consider using true natural soaps, made with natural and certified organic ingredients. And this is where Neolaía^®’s Purify Line of soaps become indispensable….

Skin Detox With Neolaía^®

Neolaía^®’s Purify Line of soaps consists of seven individual charcoal-based variants that are formulated to detoxify the skin while also nourishing it with natural and certified organic ingredients to impart additional benefits to the skin, such as: extra moisturization; enriching powerful antioxidants; and varying levels of exfoliation which aid in cellular turnover. The GREAT NEWS is that this is all accomplished without resorting to chemical additives, dyes, artificial fragrances or questionable (and difficult to pronounce) substances.

The seven variants in Neolaía^®’s Purify Line collection are: Activated Charcoal; Activated Charcoal & Honey; Activated Charcoal & Oatmeal; Activated Charcoal & Goat’s Milk; Activated Charcoal & Papaya; Pore-Friendly Antioxidants; and Soothing Acne Relief. And while there are different additives included to achieve different results, all seven variants contain: activated charcoal; aloe vera gel powder; vitamin E; 3 natural and essential oils for fragrance; and 8 high quality moisturizing and healing oils (that’s right, we did not skimp on moisturization). The eight moisturizing oils are: certified organic babassu oil; rice bran oil; mango seed butter; certified organic castor oil; Abyssinian oil; certified organic neem oil; extra virgin olive oil; and high linoleic safflower or sunflower oil. Jasmine oil, lavender essential oil and certified organic sweet orange essential oils are included to produce a pleasing fragrance.

If you compare the ingredients of ANY variant soap bar in our Purify Line collection against any other brand charcoal soaps, it will become immediately clear that Neolaía^® is the superior choice. We don’t just say our brand is a high-end, luxury brand, we prove it in the ingredients we carefully select for our soaps.

Let’s start with the activated charcoal we use. Activated charcoal powder is the “go-to” solution in hospitals across the globe in addressing drug overdose. It is rated Category 1, "Safe & Effective," by the US Food and Drug Administration, and recommended by the Poison Control Center of America, to be used in counteracting drug and food poisoning and to detoxify patients who are suffering from an overdose of aspirin, barbiturates, morphine, and other addictive drugs. Its widespread use in this capacity is a testament to its effectiveness to adsorb toxins. Adsorption is the ability to bind atoms/molecules to a surface. When a material adsorbs something, it attaches to it by chemical attraction. Activated charcoal has countless bonding sites to attach to and trap carbon-based impurities (“organic chemicals”) in the body that contribute to skin issues, allowing them to be flushed out and washed away so that the body doesn’t reabsorb them.

When it comes to activated charcoal for skincare and the body, particle size matters. The smaller the particle size of activated charcoal, the more access there is to the surface area and therefore the faster the rate of adsorption. Neolaía^®’s Purify Line soaps are made with a very light and super fine high activated charcoal powder that is virtually free from grittiness and velvety smooth when mixed with water; its texture is like superfine, soft talcum powder. As such, our activated charcoal is incredibly adsorptive, and is able to quickly adsorb large amounts of toxins in seconds. Neolaía^® combines this incredible activated charcoal with oatmeal, goat’s milk, honey, botanicals, and antioxidant-rich foods (such as papaya, camu camu fruit, amla, lucuma, açai berry, and piperine powder) in its powerfully effective detoxifying Purify Line soaps to help alleviate and address skin issues in order to facilitate the skin looking healthy, radiant and beautiful.
