Big River Silk Skincare's Organic GlycoShea&AmberSoy for a New You for Summer 2022

by George Woodbury Jr. M.D., Board-certified Dermatologist at Rheumatology and Dermatology, Cordova TN 06/12/2022













What's an Alpha-Hydroxy Acid? These are mostly fruit-derived compounds that help the skin to exfoliate, or to release dead cells from the surface, so that new cells can grow in from below. A prime example is Glycolic Acid, the active anti-wrinkle ingredient in Big River Silk Skincare's GlycoShea Creams.











The design of Big River Silk Skincare's ideas arose from years of taking care of Tennessee patients' skincare needs, by Dermatologists within the Woodbury family, including myself, George Woodbury Jr. M.D.. In 2016, I became President of Big River Silk Skincare, to make our organic and natural skincare products available nationally, for people just like yourself who may be facing issues with dry skin or oily skin, or perhaps wrinkles.










Big River Silk Skincare Inc.'s company logo is "Science Simplifying Skincare." Our Dermatologists use organic and natural ingredients to manufacture gentle products that are free of formadehyde, of parabens, of sulfates, and of dyes, to help both cleanse and moisturize your skin. The GlycoShea lines are also free of fragrances. The idea of Alpha-Hydroxy Acids originally came from citrus fruits and sugarcane, so the origins are both organic and natural. We offer four lines of organic and natural moisturizers and cleansers:

GlycoShea Hand&Body Cream, both Standard Strength and High Strength:

AmberSoy Soap Gel - Lemon/Mint/No Fragrance Added










If you have skincare issues, though, one helpful initial move is to get evaluated by a Board-certified Dermatologist.My own Memphis Dermatology practice is in Cordova, Tennessee, a suburb of Memphis, Tennessee (8143 Walnut Grove Road, Cordova TN: 1-901-753-0168; Info@rheumderm.com). Or to find a Dermatologist closer to you, go to the American Academy of Dermatology website (the AAD) – the largest organization of Dermatologists in the world – which has a useful locator at https://find-a-derm.aad.org/ whereby one can plus in one’s zip code and then find a list of Dermatologist members of the AAD close to that area geographically.












At Big River Silk Skincare, our logo is Science Simplifying Skincare™. That means that our Dermatologists craft our skincare products with elegance and finesse, using science to create cleansers and moisturizers that help your skin naturally.











Both our GycoShea moisturizer creams and our Ambersoy Soap Gel are remarkable because of both what they do contain, and what they don’t contain:

: no dyes, no emulsifying chemicals, no formaldehyde, no parabens.

















We also make two helpful hand and body moisturizers:










These are helpful for people with dry, rough, and cracked hands and/or feet, and they contain a thick formulation of Shea Butter with Glycolic Acid. They're also free of dyes, of fragrances, of parabens, of formaldehyde, and of sulfates. Many people like to use them as a bedtime application, because being thick, they don't have to be applied numerous times during the day.

GlycoShea Hand&Body Cream/Standard Strength; 1 oz: $19.95/2 oz: $29.95/8 oz: $89.95


GlycoShea Hand&Body Cream/High Strength; 1 oz: $29.95/2 oz: $44.95/8 oz; $134.95


GlycoShea Facial&Neck Cream: 1 oz; $39.95/2 oz: $59.95;8 oz; $179.95.












The GlycoShea™ Creams are effective as anti-wrinkle creams because of their Glycolic Acid, blended with an organic and natural moisturizer called Shea Butter, with some of the purest water in the United States, from the Memphis Aquifer. And they’re notable because they have no fragrance, no propylene glycol nor emulsifying chemicals like sulfates, no dyes, and no problematic preservatives like formaldehyde.











Our goal is to be able to help people of all ages and also skin types. So we also make a special moisturizer that can be used on the body and face of both kids and adults - called HypoShea Moisturizer Cream.
















For people with either oily skin or combination skin, we have a helpful body and face cleanser - made by us in Tennessee: AmberSoy Soap Gel - Lemon/Mint/No Fragrance Added. AmberSoy Soap Gel is a soybean oil-derived cleanser that can be used as a face mask for like 3-5 minutes before washing the face or neck area, to get a really deep clean, and it is free of propylene glycol, of dyes, of formaldehyde, and of sulfates.













AmberSoy Soap Gel (Lemon/Mint/No Fragrance Added) runs $12.95 for 1 oz, $18.95 for 2 oz, and $59.95 for 8 oz. It makes a convenient cleanser to use after shaving, and it gives the best results if left on the face for 2-5 minutes prior to washing it off, like a face mask.











These products are all available both on-site at Big River Silk Skincare's headquarters, at 8143 Walnut Grove Road, Cordova, TN 38018, Monday-Friday, 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, and also for order from our web site: www.Bigriversilkskincare.com. 1-901-753-0168. We do offer free USPS shipping to the lower 48 states for orders over $40.00 (shipping and handling is $5.00, for orders of $40.00 and below). Our goal is to provide skincare products that are helpful for the whole family, from the babies to seniors.
