Why We Love Phyto Mucins

Since the early 2000s, a miracle ingredient known as snail mucin has been a beloved staple of consumers in spite of the initial skepticism of the mucky origins. It is an incredibly effective ingredient, one of the main benefits being its ability to boost skin collagen. However, some may still prefer not sourcing their skincare solutions from our slimy friends. ah-hem. Let me introduce you to… Phyto Mucin For those who are in-deep with the Skincare Community, mucins may be a familiar term. But let’s define mucins anyway to refresh our memories. 😉 Mucins are a group of complex glycoproteins which are secreted from the mucosal cell surface to provide protection, resistance, and resilience to toxic challenges at the mucosal surfaces. They can be extracted from animal-based sources, such as snails, or plant-based sources such as okra fruit or yams. The word phyto simply indicates where the mucin is derived from - that’s right, plants! This opens a whole new terrain to be explored for what sort of benefits these plant-based mucins can do for the skin. Just imagine, beloved superfoods such as okra fruit, natto gum, or seaweed algae extracted into a highly effective concentrate to be delivered to the skin. Not only effective, but phyto mucins are known to also be gentle on the skin. There’s as many kinds of mucins imaginable as there are people, and you can layer these benefits in your skincare routine. Here’s some phyto mucins used in Korean Skincare today! Each with its unique emphasis.💞 Okra Fruit Extract A green fruit said to be popular with historical beauty icons, such as Cleopatra and Guifei Yang. Rich in vitamins and beta-carotene that gently nourish the skin. Furthermore, is hydrating and soothing to the skin. Seaweed Algae Highly nutritious sea vegetable; rich in fiber and vitamins. Rich in sulfuric acid and perfect for nourishment. For the skin, it is also an antioxidant, with repairing and rejuvenating benefits. Kombu (Brown) Algae High in concentration of proteins, dietetic fiber, and vitamins and minerals for elasticity. Rich in fucose and algins for natural skin glow. For the skin, it’s nourishing, protecting, and provides suppleness.

#WhytheY Part. 5: Vaginal Smells

Welcome to our last installment of #WhytheY! So happy to see you here :) If you’re a person with a vagina, you know that it can be quite fragrant! As we have learned in Why the Y’s of yonder, the vulvovaginal system maintains a large network of vital functions. While your y-zone is hard at work keeping you happy and healthy- it often emits different smells as a byproduct of activity. We created this chart to show you common vaginal smells and their causes. Sweet: Changes in certain bacteria alter your vaginal pH which in turn can in turn make your y-zone smell sweet or even fermented (acidic)! This is the result of normal day-to-day changes in your vaginal environment and does not typically have any maleffect on health (1). Metallic and Chemical: If you notice your y-zone has a little metallic or chemical smell- not to worry! These may all be the natural result of common activities like sweat, sex, and menstruation, and should go away on their own (2) . Fishy: A smell like rotten fish may be a sign of bacterial overgrowth or a UTI. If you notice this, particularly in combination with other abnormal symptoms like pain when voiding or itching, consult a doctor (2). Your y-zone has subtle changes in smell all the time, and many of them are perfectly normal! The more you get to know your body, the easier it will be to flesh out when something seems off. While common smells are normal and natural, it makes total sense if you want to reduce a particular odor at times. The most important aspect of vulvar odor reduction is maintaining your pH balance and avoiding irritation. That means you need mild, but effective vulvovaginal care to reduce odors. (Absolutely no douching! Don’t even think about it!) Our intimate wipes contain natural ingredients like Centella Asiatica to gently clean your vulva when you’re on the go. Each individually-packaged wipe is formulated with Lactobacilli that help restore your natural pH and calm odor. That’s it for our very last #WhytheY! Hope we’ve armed you with a little more information on personal care for your “down there”:) Go forth and prosper! 01. Healthline.com https://www.healthline.com/health/womens-health/vagina-smells 02.

#WhytheY Part 4: Aloe Vera

Welcome Back to Why The Y! This time our topic of discussion is Aloe Vera :) The days are getting shorter and the months colder, but before you banish Aloe from your skincare til summer, let’s talk about some of its other uses! Aloe has many current uses in dermatology besides after-sun care. It contains a ton of vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and fatty acids (1) that make it an effective topical solution for many common skin needs, like dry skin and surface acne (1). Two of the most commonly overlooked benefits of Aloe Vera are its anti-inflammatory and moisturizing abilities. The plant produces “mucopolysaccharides which help in binding moisture into the skin (2).” Aloe also “stimulates fibroblast which produces the collagen and elastin fibers making the skin more elastic and less wrinkled (2).” The amino acids in the plant “also soften hardened skin cells (2).” That’s a whole lotta soothing and hydration for just one little plant! Our aloe conditioning gel is formulated with 85% pure Aloe Vera to maximize soothing and hydrating benefits your skin. Try using it to calm and rehydrate irritated skin after shaving or waxing. Of course, this wouldn’t be #WhytheY if we didn't tell you our gel is safe to use on your bikini area! Did you enjoy this mini info session? If you did, be sure to check back later for more!
