Panthenol acts as a moisture magnet, drawing and locking in hydration for a smooth, supple complexion. This all-in-one hero fortifies your skin barrier, leaving you feeling perfectly hydrated and protected.

Ceramides

Essential lipids found in skin cells; they constitute up to 50% of the epidermis. While natural ceramides are less stable than synthetic counterparts, both play a crucial role in supporting the skin barrier. This protective layer minimises moisture loss, fostering a firmer and plumper complexion. Suitable for all skin types, ceramides synergise effectively with other skin-repair ingredients such as niacinamide, retinol, and peptides.

Panthenol

Commonly known as pro vitamin B5, it is a widely favoured ingredient in numerous formulations. Functioning as both a humectant, drawing and retaining water on the skin, and an emollient, sealing in moisture, it effectively maintains skin hydration. With additional soothing properties, panthenol is excellent for calming irritated skin. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for all skin types.

Cholesterol

A naturally occurring lipid abundant in animal cells and blood, it plays a vital role in skincare. Primarily, it strengthens the skin and aids in barrier repair, promoting moisture retention and preventing water loss. This reinforced barrier also contributes to fending off acne-causing bacteria. Given its natural presence in the skin, cholesterol boasts high bioavailability, maximising its effectiveness. For optimal results, it is recommended to combine cholesterol with fatty acids and ceramides.

Squalane

An emollient rich in fatty acids, it is a derivative of squalene, a major component of our skin’s sebum. This structural similarity enables seamless recognition by the body, minimising the risk of allergic reactions or skin irritation. With antioxidant properties and excellent moisturising capabilities, squalane replenishes skin hydration effectively. Its lightweight texture ensures rapid absorption, making it suitable for various skincare formulations. As a versatile ingredient, squalane harmonises well with other skincare components, rendering it an ideal choice for a wide range of skincare products.
