Like Urea, Lactate (the salt of Lactic Acid) is also a “natural moisturising factor” (NMF), and is produced naturally by the skin. Lactate absorbs and retains moisture within the stratum corneum, or upper layer of the skin, and therefore plays a vital role in maintaining the skin’s physical properties. Low levels of Lactate within the stratum corneum are known to be associated with dry skin.

Polidocanol is an antipruritic agent that has been clinically proved to soothe skin and help relieve itching.

Licochalcone A is a powerful antioxidant and skin-soothing ingredient. It is derived from the root of the Chinese Licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza Inflata) which uses natural compounds to protect its cells from excessive sunlight. When used in skincare products, Licochalcone A works to neutralize free radicals that negatively influence skin cells and accelerate the aging process. It helps to protect the deeper epidermal skin layers from sun-induced effects.

Bisabolol can be derived synthetically, or extracted naturally from Chamomile, where the Bisabolol isomer is the active principle in the plant. It has been used for hundreds of years to help accelerate skin´s own healing process. Its anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory properties make it a highly suitable ingredient for use in skincare products.

Creatine is a natural acid produced in kidney and liver and mostly stored in the muscle cells but it can also be supplied by nutrition. Tissues with high energy demands take up Creatine through an active transport system.

Muscle cells use CreatinePhosphate, a phosphorylated form of Creatine, to store energy. In the human hair follicle, the Creatine active transport system and the Creatine kinase (enzyme) are responsible for the energy production.

Skin’s surface is covered by a protective acid mantle which gives it a mildly acidic pH. This pH plays an important role in skin condition and is key to skin’s protective barrier. It neutralizes alkaline-based aggressors (such as harsh surfactants), supports the essential process of shedding dead skin cells (known as desquamation), inhibits the growth of bacteria and creates the optimal environment in which skin’s natural flora can thrive.

When skin’s pH alters its barrier function is compromised. Water loss increases and skin dries out making it more susceptible to external irritants and sensitivity.

The Eucerin pH Balance System contains pH5 Citrate Buffer to restore and support skin’s optimal pH. This helps to strengthen skin’s barrier function, protect its natural defences and make skin less sensitive.

Climbazole is an anti-fungal and anti-microbial active ingredient used in anti-dandruff products. This chemically synthesised ingredient fights the yeast (Malassezia) which plays an important role in the formation of dandruff.

Urea (also known as Carbamide) is produced naturally by the skin and is an essential Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) regulating skin’s moisture content. Urea is hygroscopic, which means it is able to bind moisture in to the outermost layer of skin. It is also keratolytic, meaning it breaks down the connections between dead skin cells, and has anti-itch and anti-microbial properties. As a result, it improves natural exfoliation and soothes and smooths the skin’s surface. As a substance produced naturally by the skin, Urea is well-tolerated even by dry and sensitive skin.

Carnitine (L-carnitine) is an amino-acid-like substance found in the skin which, when applied topically in specific formulas, can help reduce sebum production.

Piroctone Olamine is an anti-fungal and anti-microbial active ingredient used in anti-dandruff products. This chemically synthesised ingredient fights the yeast (Malassezia) which plays an important role in the formation of dandruff.
