Acidic Moisturiser with Lactobionic acid & Ceramide 3

Acidic Moisturiser

200ml

For instant & lasting moisture for the body

 

A healthy and intact skin barrier is acidic with a pH of 5-5.5

Water is neutral (pH=7) 

Skin pH scale

Soap and swimming pools can be alkaline (pH greater than 7) . This may trigger an inflammation and make the skin dry, itchy and sensitive even if the person moisturises regularly.

With aging, the skin becomes less acidic which may make the skin very dry. 

 

THE NEXT GENERATION MOISTURISER

  • For further skin barrier restoration
  • Acidity of the skin barrier fights pathogenic microbes like S. Aureus

Features:

  • Lactobionic acid: 
    • Sustainable acid mantle control
    • To inhibit Serine protease enzyme. Serine protease enzyme may trigger dryness even with Ceramides abundance
    • Instant and lasting moisture
    • Lactobionic Acid is a polyhydroxy acid (large molecule) and stays on the surface of the skin barrier which keeps the skin barrier acidic for longer

  • Ceramide 3 (Concentrated) : To repair the skin barrier

  • Dimethicone: to combat TEWL (Transepidermal Water Loss)
