Sobon Illite Mask Pack is a therapeutic facial mask that effectively eliminates dirt, toxins, pathogens, and other harmful impurities from the skin as it helps to boost the skins natural defense system through Far-Infrared Rays (FIR) that is primarily derived from its main ingredient, called Illite.
What is Illite?
Illite is a mica-type, clay-like mineral that was discovered in Illinois, U.S.A. in 1937 by Professor Grim of Illinois University. Then, it was known for its physiological effect in the cells, but for thousands of years, Illite, another component of Sobon Natural Mineral Facial Mask, Bentonite, were used in heating or thermal therapy.
Skin Benefits of Illite.
Scientific studies found that Illite exhibits good Far-Infrared Ray (FIR) radiation, antibiotic and adsorption properties.
This means that Illite radiates energy waves that are totally invisible to the naked eye, which are capable of penetrating deep into the body, where they gently elevate the body’s temperature and activate major bodily functions. Although our body produces these FIRs, their intensity fluctuates. As such, it’s been said that: When our body’s FIR intensity is high, we feel healthy and are able to overcome ailments, but when it begins to decline, we are subject to disease and illness and age more quickly.1
How Far-Infrared Rays Work for the Skin.
Far-Infrared Ray (FIR) does wonders for the body as it does for the skin, like it:1
- Expands capillaries, which stimulates increased blood flow and circulation;
- Detoxifies the skin by promoting the elimination of subcutaneous fat associated with skin aging and fatigue;
- Eliminates accumulated cosmetics in pores through the skin (sweat and oil glands) if the sebaceous glands are activated;
- Promotes the killing of disease-causing bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites;
- Promotes the rebuilding of injured tissue, increases growth of cells, DNA synthesis, and protein synthesis that are all necessary during tissue repair and regeneration, excellent for healing scar tissue and skin problems.
Especially when used onto the skin exposed to Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals (EDC), or substances in our environment that interfere with our hormones’ biosynthesis, metabolism, or action resulting in a deviation from its normal reproduction2, Illite-containing products, like Sobon Natural Mineral Facial Mask, absorb hazardous materials and heavy metals that are brought about by environmental pollution. In the same manner, they also generate negative ions, thereby protecting the skin from atmospheric and environmental pollution, revitalizing it as well as mitigating acne, and recovering energy and light to fatigued skin.3
