Skin Problem Helpers

Natural de-pimplers and scar minimisers


For 'special needs' skin - extra help for achieving firm, pimple-free skin, minimised scarring and a yummy mummy tummy...

 

Willow Drops

Salicylic acid from Willow trees


Finally, pores that are clean enough to invite the neighbours over!! 

Willow Drops has the ultimate clean and gentle formulation too.  The 2% Salicylic Acid feels right at home in a base of Aloe Vera Juice, as Aloe naturally contains Salicylic Acid. 

2% is strong enough to get the gunk out of your pores and provide mild exfoliation, but without you really noticing what's going on.  So oily skins will love it and dry skins won't mind.  Both will be ecstatic about that clean pore feeling from this Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) formula.  (Well, technically it's an AHA, but it behaves like a BHA because it dissolves oil.)

Use Willow Drops before bed to avoid bumps in the night - every day if you can, or every second or third day if your skin tends to dry out. 

If you are particularly pimple-prone, layer Willow Drops with Fresh Face and Emutality.

Note: If you are allergic to salicylates in fruits and vegetables, it's advisable not to use any topical Salicylic Acid product, including this one.

pH = 3  (Quite acidic)  Required for the action of Salicylic Acid on the skin, but does not sting unbroken skin.

Ingredients:  Aloe Vera juice (70+%), water filtered through volcanic and magnetic minerals, SD Alcohol (<5%)*, Polysorbate, Salicylic Acid (2%), Hyaluronic Acid, Seaweed thickener, Citric Acid, Chamomile and Spearmint extracts, Plantaserve (trace).

30ml/1oz  AU$44  (= approx US$35)  

*We had to use a little alcohol - hope you don't mind.  Salicylic Acid does not dissolve well in an aqueous base.


Fresh Face

Why do only modern cultures get acne? Think about it.


This is Orthoderma's little miracle!  It's a potion for magical relief of acne angst!  It's an entirely natural de-pimpler based on research into wonderful Calcium Pantothenate, a special form of Vitamin B5.  It can work miracles on those pesky little volcanoes!

If your skin has double trouble due to clogged pores, layer Fresh Face with Willow Drops (above) and your pores could end up cleaner than…well, a very clean thing.  No more icky goop where it shouldn't be - on your beautiful face.

Now remember, Fresh Face will have a much easier time doing its job if you also...

·     Eat well. That means plenty of vegetables, fruit and quality protein, including good sources of natural Vitamin A, B5, Zinc and essential fatty acids.  Stay away from excessive sugar, flour and artificial fats like margarine or heated/processed polyunsaturates like those in most fast foods and pastries.

·     Stop damaging your skin barrier by using nasty detergent-based cleansers or chemical foundations, 'moisturisers' and sunscreens.  Instead, nurture your skin barrier with natural oils like Rosebuddy and Emutality.

pH = 4 (Moderately acidic) 

Ingredients:  Water filtered through volcanic and magnetic minerals, d-Calcium Pantothenate (Vitamin B5), Hyaluronic Acid, Seaweed thickener, Citric Acid, Plantaserve

Belly Beautiful

For a yummy mummy tummy


This is a delicious and nutritious massage oil for tummies that are getting bigger by the day....and for tummies that are heading back home!!

Whilst we can't guarantee that you won't get stretch marks, you can maximise your chances of ending up as smooth as your own baby's bottom by applying all the yummy stuff in Belly Beautiful.  Make sure that you use the special massage technique that comes with the bottle too, because it's an old trick from old wives with unusually nice stomachs! 

Belly Beautiful contains only natural ingredients (of course!) to help protect your baby from harm that might be caused by using chemical products on your skin.  To be super-safe we've even removed all essential oils and kept the preservatives extra low.

For maximum benefit, use daily from the earliest stages of your pregnancy, until your tummy and breasts are back to normal after your baby. 

Ingredients:  Organic cold-pressed Rosehip Oil, best Australian Emu Oil, organic cold-pressed Ghananese Shea Butter, organic cold-pressed Coconut Oil, mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E in natural alpha, beta, delta & gamma forms), Ascorbyl Palmitate (oil soluble Vitamin C), Plantaserve

Special big bottle - 50ml/1.67oz    AU$79  (= approx US$63)   


Scarper

Scrat!  Shoo, pesky scars!


Phew! Stinky! ...but oh so worth it!  This tiny bottle packs a potent punch.  It's full of super-concentrated top quality goodies with research-proven scar minimisation properties.

Scarper contains highest quality organic Rosehip Oil (the nice thick orange kind that's hard to find), specially selected Lavender Oil (we tested 17 varieties to identify one with these properties), a generous dose of very rare and wildly expensive Helichrysum Essential Oil (Immortelle), plus full spectrum Vitamin E and Tocotrienols.

Scarper contains strictly no cheap, useless 'filler' oils!  We find it very troubling that the main ingredients in every other so called ‘scar prevention’ or stretch mark oil that we have investigated are just 'filler' oils that do very little to support the skin.  By contrast, every ingredient in Scarper is there for a well researched reason, and is the very best of its genre that we can source.  You get zero filler ingredients at Orthoderma!

Note:

  • Scarper is intended to support the smooth, healthy, blemishless appearance of skin following minor injuries, not to heal large or open wounds. Apply only to small areas of intact skin/fully closed wounds.

  • Because the volatile notes of high quality Lavender essential oil can be very heady (i.e. It stinks, though pleasantly), we don't recommended that you use Scarper on babies or young children, near to your nose or eyes, during pregnancy or around pets - especially birds.

  • For large scars consider mixing Scarper with Rosebuddy, so as not to overdo the strong essential oils in Scarper.

Ingredients:  Organic cold-pressed Rosehip Oil, specially selected European Lavender Essential Oil, full spectrum Vitamin E, European Helichrysum Essential Oil (Immortelle), full spectrum Tocotrienols, Ascorbyl Palmitate (oil soluble Vitamin C). PRESERVATIVE FREE

10ml/0.3oz    AU$39  (= approx US$31)   


Le Lash

Finally, a good lashing that you can actually enjoy!


Not satisfied with thin or short lashes?  This luscious eyelash enhancer is based on concentrated GHK Copper*, to support the natural growth of full, thick, long and silky eyelashes

Le Lash does not contain any hormones or other dubious stuff, as added to a certain product-that-shall-remain-nameless, to stimulate artificial growth!  We want you to be safe, so Le Lash contains only natural volcanically filtered water, aloe, hyaluronic acid, GHK-Cu and a tiny splodge of mixed isomer Vitamin E, to maximise your natural growth potential.

You need only apply the tiniest smidge along your lash line once a day - or even just once every couple of days - and you should start noticing a difference in the appearance of your lashes in less than two weeks! 

Remember, don't splodge it right into your eyeballs - as if we had to tell you that!!  Just run a tiny amount very carefully along your outer lash line, near the roots of your eyelashes.

*GHK Copper (GHK-Cu) is sometimes called the 'first generation' copper peptide - the safe and effective peptide on which Procyte's original scientific trials were based.  Le Lash does not contain the 'second generation' soy-based copper peptides called ‘SRCP’ or ‘CP’ by Skin Biology.

Ingredients:  Aloe Vera juice (fresh and reconstituted), water filtered through volcanic and magnetic minerals, Hydroxyethylcellulose (natural thickener), Glycine-histidine-lysine Copper Peptide, Allantoin, Polysorbate, mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E in natural alpha, beta, gamma & delta forms, plus acetate), Glycine, diazolinydinyl urea, parabens (trace)

3ml     AU$42.50  (= approx US$34)
