What are the benefits of mother-of-pearl cream for the skin?
Often used for its pearls in lithotherapy, defined as stone medicine, mother-of-pearl also has excellent virtues for our skin. More precisely, mother-of-pearl is a hard and shiny substance, giving this pearly appearance found inside certain mollusk shells, such as pearl oysters or mussels. It contains rich minerals such as calcium, zinc, selenium, magnesium and manganese which help slow down the aging of the skin. In other words, mother-of-pearl achieves this shiny effect thanks to its composition made of many thin layers of calcium carbonate.
