Rethinking What Clean Means — Island Rx and Galleyon

from Keys® Natural Skin Solutions · host Bob Root

"Rethinking What Clean Means — Island Rx and Galleyon”Clean is one of those words that gets thrown around a lot in skincare. But I’d like to offer a more specific definition: clean means your cleanser leaves your skin actually healthier after you wash than before. Not just free of dirt — genuinely better off.That’s a high bar. Most cleansers fail it. They remove what you want removed, but they also strip the acid mantle — the slightly acidic film that protects your skin from bacteria and allergens. They disrupt the stratum corneum — the outer skin layer. They damage your skin’s microbiome — the beneficial bacteria that are a crucial part of skin health. You wash, and your skin is technically clean, and also worse off.Island Rx is our gentle daily cleanser built on pure Castile soap chemistry — saponified olive, coconut, jojoba, and avocado oils — formulated to clean without stripping. No SLS. No synthetic surfactants. Your acid mantle stays intact. Your microbiome stays healthy. Blood orange gives natural antimicrobial support and brightening. Sage tightens pores and controls excess sebum.Galleyon is our antibacterial cleanser for when you need clinical-grade antibacterial performance — Lakota Sioux-grown Spearmint oil that kills pathogens to below required clinical levels, without biocides, without skin damage. ProBiome-safe. EWG rated 1.0.Two cleansers. Both built on the same philosophy: clean that makes your skin better.Find them both at keyspure.com.
