Ectoin
Common name:
Ectoin
Ingredient description:
Ectoin is a natural ingredient - coming from micro-organisms. Under extreme conditions, the bacteria produce it because of its protective properties. It prevents the harmful effects of sunlight and binds water molecules. No wonder it has become a desirable ingredient in cosmetic products. These properties also have a similar effect on our skin.
Cosmetic action:
In cosmetics, ectoin has a very wide range of functions - protective, anti-ageing, regenerative, soothes irritation, calms and reduces itching. It supports the repair of UV-damaged cells and counteracts photo-ageing. Its intensive moisturising properties are worth highlighting - it has the ability to bind water and prevent excessive water loss from cells. The combination of ectoin and hyaluronic acid further enhances the moisturising effect. Such a duo can be found in our Tattoo Cream Pina Colada, designed for the care of fresh tattoos. We are sure we have discussed the doubts as to why this is a cosmetic for special tasks 🙂 .
