Universal  All skin types

To the degree possible, all our formulations are constructed to maximize benefits to the skin’s infrastructure, maintain yin-yang (acid-base, moisture-movement) balance. Universal formulas do all this and more. They can be used alone as the basis for a daily skin care routine, and layered with other products as the need arises. The skin is dynamic, alive, always changing. We take this into account.
