Benefits of natural moisturisers

Moisturising the skin should be a daily ritual. In a perfect world our skin would not need moisturising but outside forces change this.

So what do we need to look for in a moisturiser that suits your skin?

  • Oils to nourish
  • Hydrators to hold moisture in the skin
  • Rejuvenating ingredients to help reduce lines and wrinkles
  • Essential fatty acids that mimic our own oils to increase skin health

Dry skin needs a higher oil content in the cream.

Combination skin with an oily t-zone needs less oil but still requires some oil and hydrators (humectants) to supply and retain moisture.

Oily skin can work well with special formulations that supply moisturising in an oil free form which keep skin hydrated without oiliness.

We hear "dehydrated" skin used constantly especially from sales assistants on cosmetic counters. All skin types can be dehydrated and this can be caused by different factors.

Dehydrated skin is lacking in moisture (water) - not oil. Often dehydration can be remedied simply by drinking more water. Each cup of coffee, tea or alcohol consumed will dehydrate your skin. A glass of water is required to offset each cup you drink of these beverages.

Ingredients such as Hyaluronic acid, lecithin or glycerin will increase the moisture content held in your skin and impart a dewy plumped appearance to your skin. Hyaluronic Acid is the king of hydrators but often only found in Serums due to the high cost.

Natural oils including macadamia nut oil contain an oil profile very close to human skin. Jojoba has a similar break up of essential fatty acids although it is technically a wax and not an oil. Sweet almond and Apricot kernel oils are also beneficial to the skin. Skin health is greatly improved when these natural oils are included in Natural Moisturiser formulations.

Research has shown Organic Aloe Vera can increase the rate of regeneration of skin cells by many times when used in a generous quantity. Penetration ability of Aloe Vera is legendary.

Problem skin usually has inflammation present. The mineral MSM is perfect for keeping inflammation under control. MSM is organic sulphur (or sulfur) a nutritional supplement originally developed for arthritis and joint pain. Sulphur is present in every cell of the body. When included in a moisturiser an easy solution to inflammation is achieved.

Like so many products or ingredients, a side benefit emerged early in the life of MSM, and that is the softening of skin. When taken as a powder supplement skin is softer on the whole body not just the face. It works from the inside out. Maybe we should call it Magic MSM. In my opinion it is.

MSM is the catalyst for the MISMO range. It brings synergy to the union of natural oils, humectants and anti ageing ingredients. Natural Moisturisers also require the correct pH, a rarely discussed factor in the formulation of a great cream vs a good cream.Apply your Natural Moisturiser twice a day for optimum benefits and put on that beautiful face for the world to see.

✅ Relieves arthritis pain and stiffness – Reduces inflammation and improves flexibility for easier movement.

✅ Supports cartilage and joint health – Helps rebuild and strengthen joints for long-term mobility.

✅ Boosts skin hydration and elasticity – Protects collagen and prevents wrinkles for firmer, healthier skin.

Why it works: MSM is a natural source of sulfur, which your body needs to keep joints flexible, reduce inflammation, and support healthy skin, hair, and nails. It helps rebuild cartilage, strengthens connective tissue, and protects collagen, making movement easier and keeping your skin firm and hydrated. Since MSM is lost in food processing, supplementing restores these essential benefits for better mobility, less pain, and overall vitality.

Who is it for? Anyone looking for natural arthritis relief, improved joint health, stronger hair and nails, or enhanced skin and gut function. 

How does MSM help with arthritis and joint pain?

  • Reduces inflammation – Helps ease joint pain and stiffness for better movement.
  • Supports cartilage and flexibility – Provides sulfur for strong, healthy joints.
  • Improves mobility – Helps you move with less discomfort so you can stay active.

Many people with arthritis, osteoarthritis, and joint pain find that daily MSM supplementation makes a noticeable difference in their comfort and movement.

MSM for Skin, Hair, and Nails

  • Helps protect and restore collagen, reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Strengthens hair and nails, preventing brittleness and breakage.
  • Boosts glutathione, a key antioxidant that fights pigmentation and sun damage.
  • Improves skin hydration, keeping skin soft, clear, and healthy.

MSM for Exercise Recovery

  • Speeds up tissue repair, helping muscles and joints recover faster.
  • Supports athletes, gym-goers, and active lifestyles by preventing injuries.

Active Ingredients

100% MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) – A bioavailable, ultra-pure form of sulfur that supports joint health, reduces inflammation, and strengthens hair, skin, and nails.

Packaged in Australia from imported ingredients. Vegan, gluten-free, and free from additives or anti-caking agents.

How to Use

  • Start small: Take ¼–½ teaspoon per day (or 1–2 capsules) to avoid detox effects.
  • Increase gradually: After a week, slowly increase to 2–6 grams daily (5–6 capsules), adjusting based on your needs.

Best taken in the morning: Many find it gives a natural energy boost. Mix with water or juice.

If detox symptoms like headaches occur, reduce the dose and build up slowly.

WARNINGS: If taking strong blood thinners, do not take MSM without your doctor's approval. Not to be taken by children without a health professional's advice.  MSM can also interfere with the accuracy of the blood test for liver enzymes by sometimes producing false positive results. It is recommended you cease taking MSM at least 4 days before these blood tests. You can resume after the test.

How much MSM should I take daily?

  • Start small: ¼–½ teaspoon (or 1–2 capsules) to allow your body to adjust.
  • Increase slowly: Most people take around 1 teaspoon daily (4g).
  • Higher doses may provide extra relief—adjust based on how you feel.

Should I choose MSM capsules or powder?

MSM Powder is the most cost-effective option for daily use at home. It is the best option for those on a larger dose (2tsp+).

MSM Capsules are convenient for travel and great for those who don’t like the taste of MSM powder.

Where does MISMO MSM come from?

MISMO MSM is tested for purity and quality, ensuring you get a clean, bioavailable supplement.

There are two types of MSM:

  • Distilled Ultra-Pure MSM – The gold standard, made using a 4-step distillation process for the purest form.
  • Pure-Crystalline MSM – Created through a centrifuge process, maintaining high purity while being slightly more affordable.

Every batch is independently tested to ensure zero additives, fillers, or anti-caking agents.

What is the science of MSM?

Sulfur is essential for keeping your skin firm, joints flexible, and connective tissue strong. MSM provides a natural source of sulfur, helping your body produce collagen and elastin—the key proteins that keep skin smooth and resilient. Nearly half of your body's sulfur is found in your skin, muscles, cartilage, and bones, making it crucial for overall strength and mobility.
