The skin is the largest organ of the body and is made up of millions of cells which all need nutrients to function.
The skin is responsible for many functions and is vulnerable to a wide variety of irritations and disorders. To be able to cope with these, repair tissue damage and replace cells, the nutrients play a key role.
The outer covering of the body consists of an outer layer, the epidermis and an inner layer, the dermis. Beneath the dermis is a layer of fatty tissue (cells) which acts as a reservoir of food and water (anatomical name: cutis) this is where the bulb of the hair follicle is situated. The hair follicles along with the blood capillaries, sweat and sebaceous glands and smooth muscle fibres are part of the loose connective tissue (cells) making up the dermis. Cells and skin cells need nutrition to exist because they are living organisms.
The Hair Follicle
A sheath of epidermal cells and connective tissue (cells) that surrounds the root of the hair. N.B: There is no scientific verification or clinical proof that increased supply of fluids into the skin will "squeeze" hair follicles to straighten hair, make hair stand up or lift hair out of the skin.
Hair
A threadlike keratinised outgrowth of the epidermis of the skin. It develops inside a tubular follicle. The route of the hair, beneath the surface of the skin, is expanded at its base to form the bulb. As new cells are formed the older ones are pushed upwards and become keratinised to form the root and shaft. A hair maybe raised by a small erector muscle in the dermis, attached to the hair follicle. Hair is composed of proteins and minerals and requires a healthy balanced diet for proper nourishment. If adequate blood circulation in the skin and to the hair follicles is restricted, hair follicles become undernourished and the hair becomes weak. Furthermore, the hair may not be raised by the small erector muscle in the dermis, attached to the hair follicle. Increased activity of the sebaceous glands situated on the side of the hair follicle can result in excess sebum, which may block the hair follicles producing inflammation underneath the skin surface.

The Problem
Each time we remove hairs from our body by whatever method (waxing, electrolysis, shaving or using depilatory creams), it is likely that ingrown hairs will occur. This is because as the hair follicle is removed from below the surface of the skin, it can curl up inside the hair follicle as it regrows. Consequently, it cannot appear above the surface of the skin and as it grows it creates a reaction in the skin resulting in a red bump on the surface of the skin. Soothe'n'Smooth works by strengthening the hair erector muscles and nourishing the hair follicles so that hairs have the right conditions to grow normally. Up to 20% of men can suffer with the problem of razor rash and bumps and often the problem is made worse by the use of after shave which may contain alcohol and other chemicals. The problem can occur in up to 80% of men of African origin, as it occurs particularly on people with curly hair. In this case, as the hair is shaved the follicle becomes sharp at the end and can penetrate the skin as it curls back. This is not only very uncomfortable but can result in ancinfection.
In formulating Soothe'n'Smooth, we had to bear in mind ingredients which would offer a calming, soothing action on the skin whilst at the same time nourishing the hair follicles to ensure they are as strong as possible. In addition, Soothe'n'Smooth provides antiseptic, anti-bacterial, anti-itch and anti-inflammatory qualities to give the skin the strength to fight the problem.
NB: Soothe'n'Smooth is not to be confused with other products on the market which contain alcohol and chemicals. We use only the finest natural ingredients to prevent further irritation and to achieve effective results. There are no known side effects and because the spray is absorbed quickly it does not stain clothes.
METHOD OF USE
Before Hair Removal
A few days before hair removal, shake the bottle and spray on to the area of skin to be treated. Use once or twice a day to encourage the hair to grow straight to help with full hair removal.
After hair removal and to prevent ingrown hairs
Spray onto the affected area, massaging lightly over the skin if required. The spray can be used as often as necessary until the skin feels soothed and smoothed. The spray solution is quickly absorbed through the pores of the skin leaving no residue, thus avoiding grease or stickiness, which can cause stained clothes.
