| EmuCare acne cream, how does it work? |
| |
First of all, we have to make clear that a cream always is composed of water and oil.
EmuCare acne cream is composed of 2 important oily components, emu oil and chaulmoogra oil. Both natural oils. Emu oil is non-comedogenic: it does not clog the pores, and the oil is highly penetrating through all skin layers. This enables the oil to repair/reinforce the connective tissue, subcutaneously. Scars become soft and smooth.
Chaulmoogra Oil inhibits the growth of the specific bacteria which causes acne, Lactobacillus acnes.
The cream is composed in a way that the skin doesn’t look dull. It will absolutely not leave a greasy film.
|
| |
| Is EmuCare acne cream suitable for a dry skin as well? |
| |
EmuCare acne cream is available in 2 varieties:
1. for the oily skin
2. for the dry/normal skin
Both types nourishes carefully and will not dry out the skin, which mostly happens when using ordinary acne creams. However, when you have an oily skin, you will prefer a cream to penetrate quickly and certainly leave no greasy residue. EmuCare acne cream for the oily skin definitely avoids that. Both creams will not give you a dull exposure.

| Lactobacillus acnes, what is it for kind of bacteria? |
| |
We live in symbiosis with all kinds of micro-organism: on our body and in our body. We need this micro-organism for all kinds of body functions. Also our skin contains bacteria. This skin flora is important to keep our skin healthy. One of these bacteria is Lactobacillus acnes. It is a bacterium which exists in acidic environment and produces lactic acid. Unfortunately, this bacterium is responsible for acne. EmuCare acne cream inhibits the growth of only these bacteria, and therefore other skin flora maintain balanced.
|
| |
| P.Acnes is also a bacterium causing acne, what about this one? |
| |
P. acnes stands for Propionibacterium acnes, which is an anaerobic bacteria located in the follicle of the sebaceous gland and is involved in the inflammatory aspect of acne. This bacterium also produces acid, called propionic acid.
EmuCare acne cream inhibits not only the growth of lactobacillus acnes, but also Propionibacterium acnes and other acidic-producing bacteria. However they are causing much less problems.
