What is Alka® Mineral salt?
Alka® Mineral salt is a 100% natural, alkaline bath salt with a pH value of 8.5. It is enriched with a variety of beneficial ingredients such as gemstone powder, Himalayan salt, Epsom salt, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium bicarbonate.
This unique blend cleanses, moisturizes, and nourishes the skin deeply while neutralizing acidic waste products. It also helps restore the skin's acid-base balance, which is essential for maintaining beautiful skin.
Why acidic waste affects the skin
Acidic waste is produced from consuming alcohol, meat, sugar, certain medications, and even as a result of stress. It affects the skin because it’s excreted daily through the skin.
An unhealthy lifestyle often leads to excessive secretion of acidic waste through the skin, causing the skin to become too acidic. Initially, you may not notice any symptoms, but there are underlying effects at the cellular level.
The pH of our skin is always slightly acidic, but why?
Acidic waste materials leave our body partly through the skin. However, as the body becomes more and more acidified over the years, the natural skin regulation and the skin renewal process is disturbed. New skin cells mature too quickly or die too quickly. The skin overacidifies, dries out or becomes oily, which leads to skin complaints of all kinds.
Healthy people have an acidic skin surface with a pH of 5.5. This pH is much lower in people with acidic bodies. The epidermis then becomes a breeding ground for pathogens. This causes all kinds of skin discomfort.
To prevent this, alkaline skin care products are used. Unlike other skin care products, which often have a pH value that is too low or too high, they contain an optimal pH value (between 7.5 and 8.5).
Preventing problem areas with the correct pH
Using alkaline skincare products, such as Alka Mineral Salt, helps neutralize acidic waste on the skin. This action prevents early cell death and disturbances in the skin’s regulatory and renewal processes.
How does deacidification with Alka® Mineral salt work?
Alkaline mineral salt helps the body excrete acid waste through the skin. By adding alkaline bath salts to your bath water, the water receives a pH of about pH 8.5. Excess acids in your body are transported through the skin from the inside to the outside by the osmotic pressure. The acidic deposits on the skin are neutralized, thereby restoring the regulating effect of the sebaceous glands.
Results
Alka® Mineral salt stimulates the formation of new, healthy skin cells and helps restore and maintain the regulatory function of the sebaceous glands, keeping the skin deeply balanced.
