Aqua, Sodium Chloride, Glycerin, Urea, Panthenol, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Sodium Hyaluronate
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).
Sodium Chloride:
Sodium chloride, common salt, serves as an excipient, gel stabiliser in surfactants, stabilises W/O creams
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.
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.
Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside:
An anionic surfactant and solubilizer; made from fatty alcohols and glucose of vegetable origin.
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.
