How is Sodium Bentonite Clay different from other clays and what makes it so effective in purifying the skin?

The effectiveness of Sodium Bentonite Clay lies in its natural properties, described in detail below.

• It has a negative charge. While toxins and other impurities carry a positive charge, Sodium Bentonite is negatively charged. The surface of the Sodium Bentonite Clay molecule is comprised of numerous microscopic platelets, just 1 to 2 microns in size, each with a negative electrical attraction for positively charged toxins. This creates a strong magnetic-like effect which draws toxins and impurities to the molecule’s surface and holds them there. These impurities are then carried away with the clay when it is removed, leaving behind skin that’s cleansed, refreshed and purified.

• It is highly absorbent. Sodium Bentonite Clay is hydrophilic, which means that it has an affinity for water and is highly absorbent. In more simplistic terms, the structure of Sodium Bentonite is much like a sandwiched deck of cards. When placed in water, these cards or platelets shift apart or “swell”, creating a larger surface area with which to attract toxins and impurities. This unique characteristic enables Sodium Bentonite Clay to absorb 7 to 10 times its own weight in water and swell up to 18 times its dry volume. This is why Sodium Bentonite Clay is called a “swelling clay”. Its strong absorptive properties enhance its magnetic-like effect and make it even more effective in soaking up skin-choking toxins and impurities

Four Steps to Younger Looking Skin

Skin. It has been with you since before you were born. The largest organ of your body, your skin stretches as you grow and shrinks when you diet. But, most importantly – ages while you age! Here are four simple steps that you can take to keep your skin looking younger and feeling healthier:

Sun Protection – As we age, our skin is exposed to countless hours of sun. Constant, unprotected exposure can eventually result in what we commonly refer to as age spots. Ranging in all different sizes and shapes, these spots can appear on any area that has been exposed to the sun’s rays – your hands, arms, legs and, unfortunately, even your face. In order to decrease the risk of the appearance of these spots, you must protect your skin from the damaging rays of the sun. These rays come in two different wavelengths, UVA and UVB. UVB rays, while shorter than UVA, make our skin burn when overexposed. UVA rays, which penetrate deep into the skin’s layers, damage our collagen fibers … creating those dreaded wrinkles and leathery-looking skin. The best form of protection (besides staying indoors during daylight hours) is to use a broad-spectrum sunblock that protects against both UVA and UVB rays.

Moisturize - Not only do moisturizers make your skin feel soft and smooth, they also act as a “security blanket” for your skin. By using a moisturizer, you are giving your skin a temporary layer of protection that substitutes for lost collagen and elastin. Blanketing your skin with moisture helps to slow the progression and deepening of wrinkles. When looking for a moisturizer, be sure to take your skin type into consideration. Typically, moisturizers are made from two types of bases, oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions. Water-in-oil-based moisturizers tend to be thicker and greasier and ideal for hands or extreme dry skin. On the contrary, oil-in-water-based moisturizers are lighter and a much better choice for normal-to-oily skin. Be sure to check the label when choosing a moisturizer and select one that best matches your skin type and needs.

Cleanse – The single-most important thing that you can do for your skin every night is to remove the day’s pollutants. Skipping this process too often could result in breakouts or dull skin. Start by removing your makeup with lukewarm water and a mild facial cleanser. TIP: Avoid using soap and hot water as they will only dry out your skin. Once clean, use a gentle exfoliant like Life’s Abundance Revitalizing Clay Mask. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and unclogs pores. A clogged pore could easily turn into a blemish like a pimple or blackhead. Life’s Abundance Revitalizing Clay Mask is a soothing clay that firms and exfoliates, drawing out trapped impurities and toxins for cleaner, more breathable skin. This gentle clay is ideal for women, men and teens with all skin types.

Rest – Mom is always right. You need your beauty sleep! While sleeping, your body produces melatonin, which is recognized by some as an anti-aging hormone. This hormone is great for both the skin and the immune system. Melatonin is depleted during the daylight hours, however, at night your body replenishes its supply. Studies also show that during deep sleep, a growth hormone is produced which repairs cell damage and cell turnover is eight times faster at night. In order to enjoy a full night of beauty rest, try incorporating these simple habits into your nightly routine:

• *Set a regular bedtime
• *Avoid alcohol, sugar and caffeine for at least two hours prior to bedtime
• *Take a soothing bath with scented bath oils or moisturize with a nighttime lavender lotion

In order to slow down the effects of the overall aging process, we need to take excellent care of our skin and provide it with as much protection as it provides us.

Clay Essentials Helps Stretch Marks, Cellulite, Wrinkles & More!

“I had used products before during pregnancy that were supposed to diminish my stretch marks, and they didn't work. So I put Clay Essentials on my thighs and upper leg area where I had stretch marks from having my last baby. Even with just three or four applications, I noticed those lines looked like they were starting to disappear. It also made my skin so much smoother. I highly recommend Clay Essentials to all of those women out there looking for a product that really does improve the look of stretch marks!”
--Reinalyn A., Jensen Beach, FL

"I've been in the cosmetic industry for years and I’m always looking for natural products. I was introduced to Clay Essentials by my son, who came over and urged me to try it. I decided to give it a shot, and to my amazement, my skin felt so tight, smooth, and soft afterwards—I was ready to go out on the town! I was very impressed. I prefer Clay Essentials to the product I had been using and would recommend it to anybody.”
--Pat A., Jensen Beach, FL

"After 10 years in the landscape business, you get a lot of sun damage; my skin felt like leather. I had always thought clay masques were just for women, but after trying Clay Essentials once, wow—what a difference! I really love that my skin feels so soft, smooth and fresh—the best it has felt in a decade. People are already telling me I look five years younger. What more could I ask for?”
-- Bob A., Jensen Beach, FL

"I'm 55 years old and have had problems with age spots. After using Clay Essentials for a couple of weeks, I'm really starting to see them fade. I've used the Eye & Lip Masque as well, and I’ve noticed that the wrinkles on my upper lip are softening and look like they’re disappearing. Over the years, I've spent an awful lot of money on high-priced cosmetics—especially skin care products. But I’ve found that with Clay Essentials, it doesn't cost as much, and I'm getting better results!"
--Linda L. Port St. Lucie, FL

"I'm an aesthetician and I work with plastic surgeons. I want to see results, and that's what you'll get with Clay Essentials. It's impressive to have a product where you actually see skin improvements after one application—I would definitely call Clay Essentials a ‘miracle clay’! Great price—great results!”
-Marisa K, Plantation, FL

A Whole New Look for Your Skin

Special Message from Dr. Jane

In over 30 years of work in the pet food industry, I have encountered hundreds, if not thousands, of products not only for pets, but for humans, too.  And in all that time, I have never endorsed a product before … until now.  I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to a product that I did not formulate, but I now wholeheartedly recommend to you and the human members of your family.

Trilogy International, the parent company of HealthyPetNet, has created an exciting new line of skin care products.  Using ancient the secrets of Mesopotamia and Native Americans, Trilogy has developed a ground-breaking product line guaranteed to cause head-turning results – Clay Essentials Skincare.  Most of us associate clay masques and full-body treatment with exclusive health and beauty spas.  One of the things I like best about these products is the accessibility – you get many, many treatments at a price most of us can afford – just a few dollars per masque or body treatment!

You may be asking yourself, “Why is a veterinarian recommending this product?”  I’ll tell you why.  I’m a consumer just like you, and I love the way it has helped my skin to look.  Not only that, but I enjoy helping people, just like I love helping animals.  And most of us are concerned with our appearances, and we want to look our best.  Whether it is wrinkles, blemishes or cellulite, this product can help you.  I have seen a remarkable difference in just a couple of applications.  And, as a professional product formulator with a keen interest in natural products, this is one of the most amazing products I have seen!  It’s straight from the earth, purified for your use and then mixed with essential oils and botanicals … what could be more natural than that?  This wonderful product from the earth does so much to detoxify your skin, and as a consequence beautifies your overall appearance!

As a holistic practitioner, you know that I’m very concerned about not only what goes on inside the body, but also the effects the environment has on the body from the outside in, too.  Most of us don’t think about the fact that we frequently bombarded by pollutants that linger in the air that we breathe and the water that we drink.  These toxins build up in our bodies, especially in our largest organ of all – our skin!  Clay Essentials products actually detoxify the skin, bringing undesirable elements to the surface of the skin, thus unclogging pores and making it healthier, naturally.

So, now you know that volcanic ash clay is absorptive and can cleanse the skin.  But did you know that applying it can be a serene and calming experience?  Few things are more relaxing than the purification of the body, especially when you create a soothing environment for your cleansing.  Be sure to check out the tranquil tunes and empowering messages offered on the Enhance Your Spa Experience CD.  This collection of enchanting melodies, combined with inspiring affirmations by Certified Hypnotist and Hypnosis Trainer Rosemarie Schulman, R.N, B.A, C.H., C.I., facilitate deep relaxation, encourage positive thoughts and allow you to focus on achieving the flawless, glowing skin you desire.  Beyond enhancing your results, this unique CD gives you the rare opportunity to unwind and bring balance and harmony to your soul.  Your dog or cat may even enjoy this musical experience with you (but don’t let them ingest any of the products!). 

If you have a child suffering the embarrassments of blemishes or other common types of problem skin, you should know that Clay Essentials can help.  I have seen it myself – young people consumed by worry over how their faces look, only to find real relief with the use of clay masques every two or three days.  But don’t worry, it won’t dry out the skin with harsh chemicals like many popular blemish treatments.  And many of our customers report an increase in self-confidence after their skin improves!

From a scientific standpoint, you have to understand the primary ingredient of Clay Essentials, which is Sodium Bentonite.  While toxins, harmful bacteria and other impurities carry a positive charge, this special mixture is negatively charged.  The surface of the Sodium Bentonite molecule is covered with negatively charged microscopic platelets, thus attracting positively charged toxins and impurities.  This creates a strong effect, bringing toxins and impurities to the molecule’s surface, like a magnet.  These impurities are then wiped away with the clay when it is removed, leaving behind skin that is cleansed, refreshed and free from impurities. 

I’m excited for you to see for yourself the remarkable benefits you can achieve with Clay Essentials.  If you’re interested in looking younger and fresher, and feeling better about your appearance, give Clay Essentials a try.  Like all of Trilogy’s products, it’s backed by a full guarantee for the cost of the product.  If you have any questions about this exciting new product, be sure to watch the Clay Essentials video online.

So take my advice and open yourself to a new and refreshing experience.  I know you’ll love Clay Essentials just as much as I do!

Best wishes,
Dr. Jane Bicks

What Makes Clay Essentials Skin Care Better?

**Clay Essentials is Pharmaceutical Grade. USP-NF (United States Pharmacopeia- National Formulary) grade - assures it has met rigourously high standards of quaolity and is suitable for pharmeceutical applications.

**Clay Essentials is not sun-dried because sun-dried clay is exposed to the elements which can result in bacterial contamination. Instead, it is put through a special drier.

**Clay Essentials is manufactured in a state of the art manufacturing company used to make some of the most exclusive, expensive produncts in the world, in business for 25 years consistently produced in a controlled environment.

**Clay Essentials, includes the ingredient Kaolin, ideal for all skin types, and used to further enhance the deep detoxifying effects of Sodium Bentonite.

** Clay Essentials is actually not expensive! It is less than $1 per treatment.

** Clay Essentials has Sodium bentonite which has better detoxifying ability.  Others are usually Calcium bentonite clays.

** Many processing plants do not monitor their equipment and may also have mechanical processing equipment that contains lead working parts that can contaminate the end product.  This is why pharmaceutical grade is very important.  Cheaper clays cannot be that pure as it is the testing and the high tech equipment that cost a lot of money and the people that must be hired to make sure the process is done properly and the equipment is used properly.  If a company was actually doing the better processes and hiring these trained and qualified people, it would have to be reflected in the cost.
