How it works on the skin
The outermost layer of skin is made up of cells bound together by lipids, including ceramides and fatty acids. Ceramide NP, lecithin, and borage, jojoba, and plum kernel oils provide similar lipids, which help complete the protective surface film and reduce water loss.
Glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and aloe vera attract and retain water. Gelidium sesquipedale extract (Alga-Sendatu®) is a red algae ingredient that the brand uses to help restore comfort to the skin's outermost layer.
A topical product works on the surface of the skin. It does not alter the internal structure and is not equivalent to a professional cosmetic procedure. However, consistent use can help dry or fragile skin feel softer, more supple, and more comfortable.
Ingredients and active ingredients of the formula
These are the most relevant components of the formula:
- Organic borage, jojoba and plum kernel seed oils: They provide lipids and omega fatty acids.
- Escualano: light emollient that is kind to the skin.
- Ceramide NP and hydrogenated lecithin: lipids similar to those of the outer layer of the skin.
- Sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) and glycerin: They retain water on the surface.
- Organic aloe vera leaf juice powder: helps maintain hydration.
- Gelidium sesquipedale extract (Alga-Sendatu®): red algae from the Basque coast.
Their role is purely cosmetic: they take care of the skin's surface quality as part of a daily care routine.
