Sulphur and cosmetics

Sulphur comes to your aid

On the occasion of our first articles published in the Tarentaise Hebdo, we mentioned the central role of sulphur and its essential importance in the body. 
Later, we had the opportunity to recall its interest for joint mobility and detailed "an ideal cure for the joints".
An essential constituent of hyaluronic acid also mentioned in a previous article, Sulphur is the raw material of Keratin and Melanin, which gives it a major importance for the skin.


There are cosmetic products containing Sulphur:

• The Sulphur Soap :

ideal for problematic skin that requires a non-aggressive washing base. Following a Martinican recipe, it is ideal daily for all skin types and obviously in case of dermatological problems, provided it contains at least 3% Sulphur.

• Liquid Sulphur, in the form of a micro-emulsion :

A true technological innovation, a micro-emulsion is a set of micro droplets consisting of an oily or aqueous core, bordered by surfactant. This form of cosmetic is more stable, more transparent and less viscous than a classic emulsion. This allows it to become a true carrier of liquid sulphur which thus passes the epidermal barrier to reach the second layer of the skin which is the dermis. We can thus say that a product such as Dermasulf significantly improves the bioavailability of sulphur thanks to better skin absorption and greater fixation of this element. This allows effective fighting against eczema, psoriasis and other dermatological discomforts.

• Powdered Sulphur for the bath :

1 to 2 tablespoons of powdered sulphur in your bath with salt: a natural and effective way to combat fatigue, joint pain, respiratory problems, flu or colds, to take care of your skin and to relax. Sulphur in cosmetics thus admirably complements sulphur massages with a sulphur pebble and sulphur treatments by oral route, thus helping to restore its place which it should never have lost within the pharmacopoeia of natural products
