Previous Curriculum ReviewThe skin is a complex organ composed of multiple layers that can be divided into two main sections:

• The dermis—provides structure and support for the skin.

• The epidermis—functions as a protective shield for the body.

Epidermis

Dermis

Sebaceous Gland

Hair Follicle

Sweat Gland

BloodVessels



Previous Curriculum ReviewMoisture Barrier:In between the keratinocytes (skin cells) in the stratum corneum (outer layer of epidermis) are epidermal lipids (ceramides, fatty acids and lipids) that act as a cement (or mortar) between the skin cells (bricks). This brick and mortar combination forms a waterproof moisture barrier that minimizes transepidermal water loss to keep moisture in the skin.

Stratum Corneum



Previous Curriculum ReviewIf the integrity of the moisture barrier is compromised, the skin will become vulnerable to dryness, itching, redness, stinging, and many other skin care concerns.

Stratum Corneum can be referred to

as the Moisture Barrier



Previous Curriculum ReviewThe outer few layers of the moisture barrier have a slightly acidic pH (4.5 to 6.5). These layers are referred to as the acid mantle.When the pH of the acid mantle is disrupted, the skin becomes prone to infection, dehydration, roughness, irritation, and noticeable flaking.

Acid Mantle

Stratum Corneum



Previous Curriculum ReviewBeautiful, healthy skin is determined by the healthy structure and proper function of components within the skin. To maintain beautiful skin and slow the rate at which it ages, the structures and functions of the skin must be supplemented and protected.



Introduction




What makes skin beautiful?

Along with genetics, the environment, and good skin care habits, dermatologists believe specific potent nutrients found in certain foods contribute to healthy, radiant skin.




Many of the latest advancements in skin care have evolved from the science of nutrition. After all, the skin is an organ, the largest and most visible of the body.Like our other organs, it is subject to the effects of diet (nutrition), lifestyle, and age.




Scientific insights are revealing that nutrients beneficial in protecting overall health are also beneficial when applied directly to the skin.




By identifying those nutrients beneficial to the skin and those even more beneficial when applied topically, Nu Skin has developed a daily skin care regimen that brings higher order benefits to the basic steps of daily skin care.This is the science of Nutricentials.™
