(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 24, 2014 ) Beaverton, Oregon -- The use of minerals for natural skin care is gradually reaching into the awareness of the US marketplace. This is seen in the use of Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) for relaxing, skin softening baths as well as the newer Dead Sea Salts that have a more complex make up of trace minerals and are often found in facial masks. Sea minerals are often used in spa treatments, particularly in European spas. Thalassotherapy is a very old regime that combines a variety of treatments where one is bathed, showered, wrapped, rubbed, or scrubbed with sea water or seaweed to address various conditions and to provide vitality and replenishment for the skin and body.
Oshi Glows Natural Skincare is counting on this growing awareness to translate into increased sales for some of its Ocean Mineral facial toners, serums and moisturizers. "We really feel this is important to introduce to people because minerals tend to be quite deficient in the modern diet. Even when people eat plenty of fresh vegetables, our soils have become quite depleted of these nutrients. So if the body is mineral deficient, you can be pretty sure the outer layers of the skin are even more so" says Lynn Voortman, a Naturopathic Doctor and founder of Oshi Glows.
Seawater, interestingly, is very similar in composition to human plasma and is readily accepted into the human body. The minerals and trace elements are called cofactors, meaning they activate enzymes necessary for proper cellular function. This is like placing the key into the ignition of the car.
Oshi Glows began selling its natural skin care products on Amazon in 2013. Many of the anti-aging facial serums include an Ocean Mineral Complex that is made up of over 90 trace minerals, overall important to good health, but also to healthy skin. But whereas, most of the products also have a more popular anti-aging ingredient like hyaluronic acid that the formula can be marketed on, this is not so for the Ocean Mineral Rich Herbal Serum and Ocean Mineral Moisturizer the ocean minerals are the key ingredient. Unfortunately this is not a strongly searched term online so the product is overlooked.
"What we've typically seen with our local customers is that they try our new products as they come out, like the Hyaluronic Acid Serum or the Anti-Wrinkle Serum with Retinol, but if they originally tried the Ocean Mineral Serum, they tell us they liked it better and choose to go back to it" says Voortman. "Minerals are so natural to the body, it's difficult to replace what they can do with any other single ingredient. I suppose if Dr. Oz would mention Ocean Minerals, we would see an immediate jump in sales" she joked, "but otherwise it's a bit of a slow climb. But we're determined to get there."
Part of this plan to get there is to offer for a limited time on Amazon.com, the Ocean Mineral Rich Herbal Serum at a great sale price. Blue Castle Naturals, the distributor of Oshi Glows on Amazon, also has an ongoing promotion where customers can save 15% on a $50.00 purchase of Oshi Glows products, or 30% on an $80.00 purchase.
