Transdermal vs. Topical: What makes Mindful Minerals’ formulas so effective is the innate nature of the product’s minerals to penetrate deeply into the body (transdermal) through the skin delivering real, long-lasting results.  Topical products (most cosmetic and skincare products) are formulated to affect the skin itself without intended ingredients reaching the bloodstream*. Only transdermal formulations are designed to penetrate through the skin layer and exert their effects on deeper or more distant tissues.

So, while Mindful Minerals’ products are categorized and labeled under the US category-- Cosmetics and Soaps, just as are most professional and retail skincare lines, it is important to understand what is in them that makes them work and what’s not in them that makes them safe.  Just like a pharmaceutical patch delivers drugs to the bloodstream, the high concentration of Dead Sea minerals in mi’s products penetrate the skin barrier to deliver vital minerals and non-toxic active ingredients and their effects on the whole body.

Massively beneficial on their own, the minerals also act as a delivery mechanism, allowing mi’s safe, active ingredients i.e.) peptides, hyaluronic acid, fruit extracts, vitamins, and humectants, to penetrate as well.  The results are unquestionable.  So, whilst we are not legally able to make medical claims on our products as a cosmetic line, the results speak for themselves.  If you have been with us for more than a month, you and your clients are buzzing about the miraculous results.

Mindful’s Dead Sea Minerals are blended in high concentrations in every formula of this revolutionary transdermal skin care line. These minerals are proven methods of delivering minerals to the entire body through the skin. Magnesium’s high concentrations in Dead Sea minerals is known to relieve skin conditions including eczema and acne. Acting as an antibacterial, magnesium minerals additionally speed the healing of wounds and reverse damage to the skin from aging and sun exposure.

To better understand the harnessed power of mi’s transdermal mineral products verses alternative skin care products, it is first important to understand the skin and its barrier function. The skin is the largest organ of the human body comprising roughly 10% of the body’s mass.

The primary function of the skin is as a barrier between the body and the external environment. This barrier protects against UV radiation, micro-organisms, allergens, and chemicals, and the loss of water and nutrients.
Human skin is comprised of three main regions: epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissues. Several appendages are associated with the skin including hair follicles!

If you look at the model. you can see the epidermis acts as a barrier with thousands of tiny pores. Most cosmetic ingredients will simply sit on that surface allowing only the smallest particles to penetrate. For example, the molecular weight of most hyaluronic acids is around 1,000,000 Daltons. That may sound big, but it’s actually very small, yet not small enough to penetrate beyond the epidermis. mi’s 3D Hyaluronic Acid combines HA weights with as small as 5,000 Daltons that readily passes the epidermis and dermis to the fatty tissue, hydrating and plumping deep tissue and cells.  Adding that deep delivery of HA with peptides combined with magnesium oil (40% concentration-Dead Sea Magnesium Oil) drives nutrients the cells need to repair and remain healthy.

When comparing magnesium (transdermal) applied to unbroken skin as opposed to Intra-dermal (oral) Magnesium or Magnesium injections, the pros far outweigh the cons. Injectable delivery requires medical supervision and while magnesium supplements are proven to dramatically reduce muscle tension, back pain and migraine when taken orally, when taken orally rather than transdermal, it can cause diarrhea and cramping. It is commonly prescribed as a laxative to relieve constipation, for that very reason.
