Special Care
Dead skin cells on the face and body are removed by gentle micro-abrasives without harming the skin. This prevents the build-up of blackheads and impurities. The active agents in any products applied afterwards are more easily able to penetrate and have an effect on the skin.

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).
Ethylhexyl Cocoate:
Wax ester that spreads well and is non-greasy, made from coconut oil.
Butylene Glycol:
Solvent with moisturizing effect on the skin, very good compatibility, should be preferred to propylene glycol in products used daily
Hydrogenated Castor Oil:
Hydrogenated castor oil: consistency agent in W/O creams and lipsticks with good skin compatibility and oxidation stability. Rubbing agent in peelings.
Ceteareth-20:
Emulsifier based on fatty alcohols.
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.
Sucrose Cocoate:
Mild, non-ionic surfactant with moisturising properties, obtained from cane sugar and fat, which improves the compatibility of other surfactants.
Tetrahydroxypropyl Ethylenediamine:
Used to neutralise polyacrylate gel (carbomer), reacts alkaline in water.
Carbomer:
Neutral, polyacrylate-based gelling agent that is very well tolerated by the skin. Contrary to various claims, no “microplastics”.
