What is Holistic Skincare?



Everyone has experienced that frustrating feeling of looking in the mirror, spotting a blemish out of nowhere, and thinking, "where in the world did that come from?!" Or maybe you've been battling a pesky, on-going skin condition that just won't seem to go away no matter what you do. There are thousands of skincare products to choose from, but what do they mean and where do you start? Here at Osmosis, we know that what you are seeing on your skin is a direct reflection of what is going on inside of your body, and noticing exactly where on your face you are experiencing a concern can help you identify the source of the condition. This is what makes holistic skincare stand out from the rest. Treating the whole person, as opposed to a specific symptom, is what ensures permanent healing, total body wellness, and lasting results.


ho·lis·tic /hōˈlistik/ adj. Characterized by comprehension of the parts of something as intimately interconnected and explicable only by reference to the whole.

Once you can recognize that the root cause of your skin conditions originates inside the body, (think hormonal acne, rosacea, and melasma), you can then begin to address the source of the problem for healing, not just subduing the symptoms. Osmosis' philosophy is rooted in advanced skincare products that partner with the skins natural functionalities paired with internal products that address the source. This dynamic duo is what delivers visible, lasting results, and a flawless complexion we all strive for! The essence of holistic skincare derives its inspiration from Chinese medicinal practices which use natural ingredients and energies to treat imbalances or disharmonies within the body. Osmosis takes that modality and combines it with advanced technology and proven science to take it to the next level. Check out our Face Mapping Guide for more insights on what could be causing your skin concerns!

"Permanent change is possible, your skin just needs to be inspired."
Osmosis CEO, Founder, and Skincare and Wellness Formulator, Dr. Ben Johnson says, "I created Osmosis because I wanted to transform the aesthetic industry. Let's help people move away from weakening the skin and instead create a partnership that empowers healing and remodeling. Every action by the skin is perfect so our efforts should always be supportive and address the actual source of the imbalance. Permanent change is possible, your skin just needs to be inspired."

We are thrilled to be pioneers in this industry, offering healthy solutions that work with your skin and body to empower its natural function. Our passion is rooted in changing the game for beautiful skin by starting within. Join us on your holistic skincare journey and watch your authentic beauty evolve!

Wellness Wednesday - Elevate Your Health



Unless you live under a rock, we are sure that all you've heard this week is "New Year, New You" "Time to join a gym" "Time to eat more veggies," so on and so forth. Yes, the new year is an opportunity for you to re-evaluate your lifestyle, choices, and goals, but resolutions can be a bit daunting and intimidating. We tend to make huge resolutions that fizzle within the first month of the year. We all want to lose weight, work out more, start a new career, become a better person, learn a new skill etc. and these are BIG goals that take time, strategy and commitment that won't accomplish themselves over night. Personal wellness is a goal we all strive for and there is no shortage of ways to achieve it. We want to help you on your wellness journey, so today marks the first post of our new blog column Wellness Wednesday. Each week we will provide you with tips and information to better your holistic lifestyle and all around health. This week we wanted to shine the spotlight on a perfect New Years "New You" conduit. Elevate.
Our Elevate supplement is the perfect tool to aid in your 2016 wellness goals. From weight loss to immune deficiencies and hormone health, this little gem of a pill helps boost your ATP and DNA repair abilities making your body a well oiled machine, capable of anything! Cat's Claw, Amino Acids, and B Vitamins boost your body's immunity and cell repair. Pyruvate and Ganoderma detox the body and aid in converting fat into energy. CoQ10 aids in protection against free radicals to better protect your body while you work towards your wellness goals. Elevate is the perfect addition to your daily health routine. Combined with clean eating and proper hydration, Elevate can help you loose weight, obtain more energy, AND most important, regulate better sleep! Elevate helps harmonize a number of different symptoms our bodies face in the way of hormonal and adrenal health. When your adrenal glands are balanced, your body can better regulate hormone production and snuff symptoms that come from adrenal fatigue and hormone imbalance thus aiding in a better metabolism, higher energy, and an end to brain fog.

We all know that every New Year brings a flurry of resolutions and goals. Most of them tend to be body focused. Elevate is a wonderful supplement to help you meet those goals. More important, Elevate will help you feel balance. When our hormones are in balance, the task of self improvement is more manageable.

The journey to wellness doesn't have to be a long hard path. It can be enjoyable, rewarding work. Elevate is a great place to start your wellness journey.

4 Ways to Speed Up Your Morning Routine


Morning is the best time of day, a new beginning. The only thing keeping us from taking it on is our morning routine. If you're anxious to get out the door or if you have trouble waking up to your alarm, these tips will help you speed up your morning routine so you can get to your day and accomplish your goals faster.

Keep Your Products Organized 
Every second counts when you're in a hurry. If you find yourself shuffling product around to find your serum or moisturizer, you're wasting precious morning time! Organizing your products means you'll know exactly where to find them. Try placing them in the order you use them, then you'll know exactly where to reach for your serum instead of doing the shuffle. This can become a little unorganized after a couple of mornings, especially when every second counts. Not to worry, a little reorganization during your evening routine will make sure you're prepared for the next morning!

Cocktailing Your Serums
This is a great way to get your full skincare routine in less time. Your Osmosis Vitamin A Serum can be cocktailed with a DNA Repair Serum and Rescue. Pump your serums into your hand and massage into the skin. Don't forget to spray Clear (or Clear Plus) for added penetration once the skin becomes tacky.

If your morning routine includes StemFactor, you'll want to use that first and separate from your other serums. Applying other serums first, whether cocktailed or not, decreases the amount of penetration StemFactor will achieve.

P.S. This really goes for any serum! You'll want to apply the serum that is most relevant to the condition you're looking to target first so it gets the most penetration.

Add a Moisturizer to your Loose Base 
Need a quick tinted moisturizer? Pump your Osmosis Moisturizer into your palm, sprinkle your Osmosis Colour Loose Base on top, mix, and apply!

Create a Morning Playlist
You typically know how long it takes you to get ready and music is a great and energizing way to help you keep yourself on track. Create a playlist of your favorite morning tunes to listen to while you get ready, keeping in mind that the length of your playlist should match the time it takes you to get out the door in the morning. Singing along is encouraged!

Keep these tips in mind while you're getting ready and you'll find you're able to tackle your day a lot faster!
