Untruths About Your Skin - #1
You may have read that 60% of everything you put on your skin ends up in your bloodstream.  But the truth is that starting from 0% to all the way to 100% of what you apply to your skin can end up in your bloodstream.  The amount of penetration depends on 4 factors:  
                            1.    The Ingredient - Carrier Oils or Essential Oils
                            2.    The Mode of Delivery - Topical or Inhalation
                            3.    The Overall Heath of your Skin
                            4.    The Environment - Temperature or Humidity
 
For instance, carrier oils will penetrate into the very top layer of the skin, but no further.  On the other hand, essential oils can reach your blood stream.  Until next time...
