Shilajit Benefits for Face and Skin

The skin is one of the soft organs of the body that is exposed to the outer world.  The outer layer of the skin called epidermis can feel, sense, and touch the physical objects.  Within the epidermis are four different types of cells namely (a) keratinocytes, (b) melanocytes, (c) Merkel cells, and (d) Langerhans.

Keratinocytes cells contribute highest (about 95%) to the skin cells. These cells produce a protein called Keratin. Keratinocytes cells become dead at times and their removal from the skin is important. The Shilajit has Carotenoids which helps in removing these dead cells form the skin. There is another protein called fibrillar collagen protein which is responsible for producing the elasticity in the skin. The Shilajit contains the zinc, copper, sulfur, and vitamins that are required by the fibrillar collagen protein to perform its operations. The Langerhans cells contribute to the immune function of the skin. It is vital to have a strong immune system to help skin block any bacteria/virus that tries to pass from the epidermis layer. Since Shilajit is rich in protein and it helps in strengthening the immune system, many beauticians and skin experts use Shilajit in preparing the beauty products. Following are some of the beauty skin masks that can be used for skin beauty and care.
