Getting Ready for Eczema Season: Big River Silk Skincare's GlycoShea Creams;
Dermatologists like myself have long known that the Fall is a challenging time for people with eczema and other sensitive skin conditions. Many of our patients tend to get itchy and to develop rashes this time of year. It’s even possible that the cooler weather increases risk of skin infections, due to skin cracking and fissuring.
In 2016, after 25 years of practicing Dermatology, I decided to pull together 25 years of working with people with eczema to incorporate Big River Silk™ Skincare Inc., manufacturer and distributor of the GlycoShea Creams, organic moisturizers and cleansers. Our logo is Science Simplifying Skincare™. We emphasize simple formulas, avoiding fragrances, dyes, formaldehyde, lanolin, parabens, and sulfates.
Our anti-skin aging line of moisturizers is the GlycoShea™ Creams – with what’s called an Alpha-hydroxy Acid ingredient called Glycolic Acid – originally discovered in pineapple and sugarcane. The GlycoShea Creams could be called anti-wrinkle creams, and they lead to better skin tone, evenness of skin color, and skin smoothness, reducing prior damage from the sun.
Our flagship skincare product is GlycoShea™ Facial&Neck Cream, a smooth blend of Refined Shea Butter and Glycolic Acid, which we blend into a fine emulsion, to quench your skin’s search for lubrication (1 oz: $39.95/2 oz: $59.95/8 oz: $179.95).
GlycoShea™ Hand&Body Cream makes a great hand and foot lubricant – because its Shea Butter moisturizes while its Glycolic Acid removed rough dry scale from the surface of the skin. It also helps to remove sun damage – such as color splotchiness or dry wrinkled areas. Available in Standard Strength (1 oz: $19.95/2 oz: $29.95/8 oz: $89.95) and High Strength (1 oz: $$29.95; 2 oz: $44.95; 8 oz: $134.95).
We also manufacture a special line of moisturizers for babies, seniors, and people with especially sensitive skin – the HypoShea™ Creams - which have all the beneficial effects of the GlycoShea lines while being free of acids. HypoShea is a smooth blend of Refined Shea Butter and some of the purest natural water in the United States, from the Memphis Sands, and it’s free of acids, dyes, added perfumes, and formaldehyde (1 oz: $13.95/2 oz: $18.95/8 oz; $39.95).
