Our 21-mineral complex is not a made-up term, but rather the natural mineral signature of our deep groundwater from the Nienburg/Weser region. This water has lain at great depths underground for a very long time, geologically speaking, hundreds of thousands of years old and completely untouched. At this depth, it naturally enriches itself with an exceptionally wide variety of minerals and trace elements – precisely 21 different ones.

Instead of using "empty" tap or distilled water as a simple base, we use this naturally mineral-rich deep water as the core of our formulations.

If by "simple water" you mean normal tap water or distilled water: No, that's exactly what we don't do.

Most skincare products consist largely of completely neutral water, which serves only as a filler. With us, it's exactly the opposite: Our main ingredient is natural deep water that has lain undisturbed underground for over 400,000 years and naturally has an exceptionally high content of 21 minerals and trace elements. This water is our active ingredient – ​​not just the base.

To ensure it really benefits your skin, we don't just treat it "quickly" at the company, but rather very elaborately:

• We filter the deep water continuously and in multiple stages over a period of approximately 7 days until it meets our quality requirements.

• Then, depending on the product, either

• used as mineral-rich deep water,

• additionally concentrated to increase the mineral content, or

• further processed in a complex process to produce concentrated mineral salt , which we then use in the formulations.

The result:

Instead of "water + a few active ingredients", you get products where the main ingredient itself is the central active ingredient – ​​with a natural mineral density that you can't simply get from the tap.

In short: Anyone can drink "just water".

Ancient, naturally mineralized deep water, processed for 7 days and refined into highly concentrated mineral salt – that is The Source Lab.

Many people are familiar with this:

• dry, tight skin
• Redness, itching, easily irritated areas
• Products that "smooth" in the short term, but tend to stress the skin barrier in the long term.

Our 21-mineral complex addresses this need directly: It provides the skin not only with oil and moisture, but with a complete package of minerals that support the barrier function and can restore the skin's balance.

Our deep water contains a wide range of minerals and trace elements, including:

• Calcium and magnesium support the stability of the skin barrier and the moisture balance.
• Potassium and sodium help regulate fluid balance and keep skin supple.
• Zinc and manganese are involved in repair processes and support the natural regeneration of the skin.
• Silicon – is an important building block of connective tissue and contributes to a smoother-looking skin structure.
• Bicarbonate – can balance the pH value and thus stabilize the natural skin environment.
• Other trace elements are perceived by many users as beneficial for irritated, sensitive or stressed skin.

The crucial point: These 21 minerals occur naturally in high concentrations in our water. They are not artificially added or synthetically reproduced.

In our products, your skin can use this mineral mix like a kind of "support from within":

• Stronger skin barrier: Minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc support the barrier function. The skin loses less moisture and is less prone to dryness and irritation.
• More moisture: The mineral-rich deep water helps to bind water in the skin and stabilize the moisture balance – the typical feeling of tightness can noticeably decrease.
• Soothing irritated skin: Many users report a beneficial effect on redness, itching and sensitive skin when they regularly incorporate the 21-mineral complex into their routine.
• Supported regeneration: Trace elements such as zinc, manganese and silicon are important for cell renewal and help the skin to recover faster after stress.

Important: Our products are cosmetics, not medications. They can support and improve your skin's appearance, but they do not replace medical treatment.

In short: Real substance instead of marketing hype.

• Natural deep water instead of "filler": The 21-mineral complex originates from a deep, geologically very old water source in the Nienburg/Weser region. This water has been protected underground for a very long time and can thus become enriched with minerals in a way that would not be possible at the surface.

• High natural mineral content: We use naturally highly mineralized deep water with 21 minerals as a base – not simply treated tap water with a few additives.

• Reduced, skin-friendly formulas: Our products combine the 21-mineral complex with a few, proven care ingredients such as glycerin, shea butter, squalane or ceramides – without superfluous additives, without unnecessary fragrances, without parabens, without cortisone.

• Designed for sensitive skin: The entire line is designed to soothe and stabilize sensitive, dry and easily irritated skin.

• Honest development: We are located directly at the source and have continuously developed our products over a long period of time with genuine feedback from people with problem skin.

If you're tired of standard creams that only provide temporary softening but don't actually strengthen your skin, our 21-mineral complex is the logical alternative:

• natural, deep-lying, ancient water as a base

• 21 minerals that specifically support the skin barrier

• Clear, simplified formulas without unnecessary ballast.
  

In short: skincare that doesn't cover up your skin, but makes it more stable from the ground up – ideal for dry, sensitive and irritated skin.
