Medical Hydrology and Balneology: Environmental Aspects Conclusions Definitions settled by Disscusung Group will be published and suggested to use like a recommendation by international group of experts if all members of group will joint to work and accept results of this work. In case of disagreement about sense of further work, cooperation will be determine to “Polish Association of Balneology and Physical Medicine” and also in those associations which will active take part in further work. Finally result of our work will be publishing “Balneological Dictionary”( Balneoencyclopaedia) which include all settled definitions in English.

Evaluation of the efficacy of exfoliating formulations containing pumice from São Miguel’s Island – Azores Archipelago Amaral H (1) , Estanqueiro M (1) , Bossolani G (1) , Santos D (1) , Silva JBF (2) , Gomes CSF (2) , Sousa-Lobo JM (1) (1) Department of Drug Sciences, Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Technology, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Porto, Portugal (2) GeoBioTec, University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal hamaral.ffup@gmail.com Introduction and Objectives The skin of humans and, more specifically, facial skin, periodically need a deep cleansing to remove not only the oily particles resulting from secretions, but also dead skin resulting from desquamation of epidermis [1]. Pumice has a recognized application as abrasive agent to promote exfoliation of the skin. Pumice ground into micro-fine grains provide an excellent exfoliating medium to remove dead and rough skin, leaving the skin silky smooth, particularly, facial skin [2, 3]. In this study, the efficacy of two different formulations (a gel and a soap) containing pumice 5% (w/w) with grain size 125-250 µm was evaluated. Materials and Methods Determinations of skin hydration, pH, sebum content and skin relief were performed, before and 30 minutes after application of the gel (EP 125) or soap (SP 125), chosen randomly, on the forehead of male and female volunteers through thirty circular movements. Hydration and pH values as well as the sebum content were determined with MPA®9 equipment (Courage-Khazaka, Köln, Germany), through the probes Corneometer® CM825, Skin-pH-meter® PH905, and Sebumeter® SM815, respectively. The skin surface images were obtained with the Visioscan® VC98 equipment and software SELS (“Surface Evaluation of the Living Skin”), (Courage-Khazaka, Köln, Germany), specially designed to characterize skin’s relief by different variables. In this study, the variables analysed were: surface, volume, energy (NRJ), scaliness (SEsc), roughness (SEr), wrinkles (SEw) and smoothness (SEsm). These tests were conducted in laboratory environment, at a temperature around 20ºC and mean relative humidity of 60%. All volunteers received oral and written information about the study modalities, including the experimental protocol, and written informed consent was obtained from each volunteer.
