Basic Care
This gel is characterized by particularly high concentrations of the most important skin-identical active ingredients and liposomes. These increase the skin moisture very strong. For dry skin and very dry skin the subsequent use of a cream is highly recommended.
Application of the SkinIdent liposome preparations
For oily to normal skin, the use of one of the liposome products alone is usually quite sufficient, especially in warm weather. For normal to dry skin, especially in cold weather, you should additionally care for and pamper your skin after using a liposome preparation with one of the SkinIdent creams, which are presented below as "face care creams".

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).
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride:
Vegetable neutral oil (triglyceride) with short-chain fatty acids. Has moisturizing properties.
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!
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.
Lecithin (and) Alcohol:
Lecithin concentrate in alcohol, can form liposomes, in creams as a high-quality co-emulsifier
D-mixed-Tocopherols:
Is the name of a mixture of natural tocopherols (vitamin E; D-alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-tocopherol). Vitamin E is the most important skin protection vitamin, which protects the skin from UV rays and oxygen radicals.
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.
Sodium Hyaluronate:
Sodium salt of hyaluronic acid. Natural moisturiser with skin-smoothing properties, important natural component of the lower skin layers (dermis). Formerly produced from rooster combs, now produced in better quality by biotechnology.
Citric Acid:
Citric acid. Biotechnologically produced body-identical active ingredient. Occurs in the metabolism of the human organism and can also be found in low concentrations on the skin. It protects the skin from oxidative stress, supports the product protection of the antioxidants and regulates the pH value of the product.
Sodium Hydroxide:
Sodium hydroxide. Used to adjust the pH value of cosmetic products. Sodium and hydroxide ions are identical to the body.
