Ingredients in Skincare

Endothelyol

Endothelyol

Endothelyol is used in skincare to target redness and rosacea. It provides a soothing effect by regulating inflammatory processes in the skin, as well as reducing visible redness via encouraging microcirculation (blood flow in the capillaries). It has been proven to reduce rosacea symptoms after 28 days daily use.

Thiamidol

Thiamidol

An anti-pigment active discovered by Eucerin after researching the effect of 50,000 different compounds on their ability to inhibit human tyrosinase (which is involved in producing melanin, our skin’s pigment). Clinically proven to visibly reduce hyperpigmentation with just 2 weeks of use.

Allantoin

Allantoin

Allantoin occurs naturally in the body, but can also be derived from the root of the Comfrey plant or Chamomile, or produced synthetically. It is used in skincare for its ability to promote wound healing and healthy tissue growth, helping in the production of collagen and elastin fibres. Allantoin has also been shown to have soothing and anti-irritant properties, which is thought to be down to its ability to form complexes with irritating agents, thus preventing them from activating inflammatory mechanisms within the skin.

Oat Extract

Oat extract is known to have soothing, anti-inflammatory effects in the skin, and is a popular active for treating symptoms of dry skin. It also has antioxidant properties so is able to protect the skin against free radicals caused by pollution and UV. It can also be known as avena sativa (oat) kernel extract, avena sativa (oat) kernel flour, avena sativa (oat) kernel oil, colloidal oatmeal and hydrolyzed oat protein.

Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate

Potassium Azeloyl Diglycinate
