Body Care
Well cared for hands are more attractive! The use of cleaning agents and frequent hand washing strips the moisture from your hands and causes them to age prematurely. This shouldn’t happen. Regular application of active ingredients such as D-panthenol strengthens your skin as well as your nails. The Hand Cream allows you to care for and protect your hands. After application you are able to touch paper or glass without leaving an oily residue as BeauCaire Hand Cream is quickly absorbed.

Aqua:
Water. It accounts for around 65% of the weight of the human body and is therefore of fundamental importance for bodily functions, including those of the skin. In many cosmetic products (aqueous solutions, cleansers, emulsions), water is the ingredient with the largest proportion of the formulation in terms of quantity and forms the basis of the aqueous phase in emulsions. Water is a good solvent for polar (hydrophilic) substances such as alcohols, water-soluble vitamins or salts. For use in cosmetic products, the water used is generally pre-treated to remove microorganisms that could lead to spoilage of the product or dissolved salts that may impair the stability of emulsions or gels (sterilization and desalination).
Butylene Glycol:
Solvent with moisturizing effect on the skin, very good compatibility, should be preferred to propylene glycol in products used daily
Ethylhexyl Cocoate:
Wax ester that spreads well and is non-greasy, made from coconut oil.
Urea:
The water-soluble urea is used in numerous cosmetic products. Urea is a component of the natural moisturising factors of the horny layer (content between 7 % and 12 %; up to half lower in chronically dry skin) and has a high water-binding capacity. It contributes to sustained moisturisation of the skin and reduces transepidermal water loss. Urea has a keratoplastic effect, in higher concentrations it has a keratolytic effect and is therefore also used in the care of skin affected by psoriasis or atopic dermatitis (neurodermatitis). Urea is also able to reduce the irritating potential of surfactants.
Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate:
O/W emulsifier obtained from glucose and fat, very skin-friendly and moisturizing.
Stearyl Alcohol:
A body-identical fatty alcohol, occurs as an intermediate product in fat metabolism, also present in small quantities in the epidermis. Provides consistency in emulsions.
Cetyl Palmitate:
Solid wax ester made from plant-based raw materials with intensive protective effect for the skin and moisturizing properties. Its composition corresponds to that of spermaceti, which was obtained from the spinal cord of whales and should no longer be used today for reasons of whale protection. The term “palmitate” does not prove the origin from palm oil
Palmitic Acid (and) Stearic Acid:
Mixture of palmitic and stearic acid. Skin-identical lipids; skin-caring and consistency-regulating in cosmetic products.
Alcohol:
Ethyl alcohol: Body identical. Has a refreshing and antibacterial effect. Also serves as a solvent for other ingredients. Contrary to claims to the contrary, there is no risk of a drying effect on the skin at normal application concentrations!
Ceteareth-20:
Emulsifier based on fatty alcohols.
Panthenol:
D-panthenol = provitamin B5: Improves and increases the skin's ability to retain moisture, has an anti-inflammatory effect, reduces or inhibits itching. Stimulation of epithelialization: Small wounds (shaving), skin abrasions, blisters heal better. When used in hair care products, it is not only deposited on the hair and scalp, it also penetrates them and has a long-term effect. As pantothenic acid is an important component of healthy hair, the precursor D-panthenol serves as “food for the hair” according to scientific studies. It provides the hair with long-lasting moisture, improves the combability of the hair, reduces the formation of split ends, improves the condition of damaged hair, thickens the hair and gives it shine. The brittleness of fingernails is reduced.
Allantoin:
Allantoin is a body-identical, water-soluble substance and is chemically related to urea. It is found in various plants but is now produced synthetically for use in cosmetics. Its most important property is the stimulation of new cell formation. It promotes collagen formation, skin regeneration and wound healing, stimulates desquamation, smoothes the skin and can have a soothing effect on atopic dermatitis.
Sodium Lactate:
Sodium salt of lactic acid: Has a moisturising effect on the skin, with the physiological pH value of the skin averaging 5.5. Important component of the natural moisturising factor (NMF) and the acid mantle of the skin.
Lactic Acid:
Lactic acid. Occurs as a metabolic product in the body and on the skin, has a peeling effect on the horny layer in higher concentrations and at a low pH value of 2 to 3, supports the moisture content in buffered form (physiological pH value of the skin approx. 5.5) and preserves the skin's protective acid mantle.
