Getting Rid of Skin Fungal Conditions & Body Odors Once & For All


Long forgotten Clove is an all-natural fighter of skin fungal conditions and body odors which at Indochine Natural we have incorporated into some of our products.

The skin benefits of Clove are legendary, but before talking about these it is worthwhile reminding ourselves that the benefits of Clove have a very long history that goes back thousands of years. One of the first recorded references to Clove says that the Chinese, in order to approach the emperor, had to have a few Cloves in their mouths to sweeten the breath. Historically, Cloves were once very costly and fiercely traded and played an important part in world history and the lucrative spice trade between Asia and Europe during the 16th and 17th century that spurred expeditions as well as wars.

Cloves have been used historically to treat many ailments. They have antiseptic, antibacterial, antifungal, antispasmodic, antiviral, antiparasitic, analgesic, and simulative properties making them a great overall healer. They can be used to stimulate the mind as well as prevent nausea, diarrhea, ease coughs, aid in digestion, and even treat conditions like malaria and cholera. They can also be used topically to treat acne, styes and sores. In modern times many of these benefits are ignored, however there is a smattering of scientific research demonstrating the effectiveness of Clove as a microbial inhibitor. For example, A novel aromatic oil compound inhibits microbial overgrowth on feet: a case study (J Int Soc Sports Nutr. 2007 Jul 13;4:3), and Microbicide activity of clove essential oil (Eugenia caryophyllata) Braz J Microbiol. 2012 Oct;43(4):1255-60

With all of these benefits in mind, we developed the Indochine Natural Clove Soap. The spicy and woody aroma of this soap warms the senses and helps you begin each day with a clear mind and positive energy.  Because of the anti-fungal properties of Clove this is a useful soap to use regularly in your efforts to keep skin fungal conditions at bay. Plus, this Clove Soap has deodorizing properties to freshen and reduce body odor.

IMPORTANT: This soap is not a cure for skin fungal conditions, for that you need to consult your doctor.

Observant followers of Indochine Natural may have noticed that we also use Clove essential oil in our Spice Island BodyWash and Tropical Flower Shampoo.

LOVE YOUR MAN WITH ALL-NATURAL BODY CARE


If your guy is a toothpaste-shampoo-bar-of-soap minimalist who occasional splashes on for special occasions with that cologne his mum gave him years ago, then perhaps its time to help him make the transition from conventional personal care products to organic and all-natural.  There are big benefits in going the natural route…..the first and most important is health and safety because he will no longer be placing potentially harmful chemicals on his skin each day.

A good place to start is with our all-natural Spice Island Body Wash that will leave his skin feeling clean, smooth and soft. Infused with the manly and exotic all-natural fragrances of Cinnamon, Aniseed and Clove, and because we know that men have a softer, sweeter side we have added Sweet Orange and a touch of earthy Patchouli.

Guaranteed to revive and freshen his senses, with astringent properties, and antibacterial, antifungal properties that are helpful in removal of body odours.
