The pearl. Have you ever found a seashell on the beach that has a luminescent coating on the inside? That thin film is called Mother-of-Pearl, and the substance that creates the sheen is nacre.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC8095667\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nacre<\/a> also creates pearl.<\/p>\n<p>A pearl forms when a tiny irritant, like a grain of sand, gets inside an oyster. To protect itself, the oyster coats the intruder with layer-upon-layer-upon-layer of nacre. Over months and years, that irritation transforms into something luminous and pure \u2014 a natural symbol of wisdom through experience.<\/p>\n<p>Pearls can grow in both fresh and salt water, and their health value depends on the cleanliness of those waters. That\u2019s why the finest pearl powders come from pristine environments \u2014 pure water, pure energy.<\/p>\n<p>After harvest, the pearls are sterilized and then ground into a fine powder through a process called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lenntech.com\/chemistry\/levigation.htm\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">levigation<\/a>. In levigation, an insoluble compound is ground into a fine powder with a liquid. The liquid helps the pearl to be crushed into even particles to create a fine powder. This process also helps to release the treasure trove of nutrients that pearls offer. A greater surface area (crushed, fine particles) makes it easier for the body to metabolize the nutrients.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/section><section class=\"bde-section-9566-117 bde-section\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<div class=\"section-container\"><div class=\"bde-div-9566-125 bde-div\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"bde-heading-9566-126 bde-heading\">\nAncient Beauty Secrets of the Ages\n<\/h2><div class=\"bde-fancy-divider-9566-127 bde-fancy-divider\">\n\n\n<div class=\"bde-fancy-divider__wrapper\">\n  <div class=\"bde-fancy-divider__separator   \">\n  \t  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"bde-columns-9566-118 bde-columns\"><div class=\"bde-column-9566-119 bde-column\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bde-rich-text-9566-122 bde-rich-text breakdance-rich-text-styles\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_heading et_pb_heading_0 et_pb_bg_layout_\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_heading et_pb_heading_1 et_pb_bg_layout_\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_heading et_pb_heading_2 et_pb_bg_layout_\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\">\n<p>Pearl has been known as the <em>\u201cQueen of all beauty herbals.\u201d<\/em> Ancient <a href=\"https:\/\/lostempireherbs.com\/product\/pearl-powder\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chinese Empress Wu Zetian<\/a>, famed for her ageless radiance, used pearl powder daily \u2014 both internally and on her skin.
