Ingredient callouts

• Ceramides (ceramide 2 0.30% - 0.50%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
• Peptides (palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.30% - 0.55%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
• Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.25% - 0.45%, copper pca 0.25% - 0.45%, trehalose 0.25% - 0.45%, sodium pca 0.25% - 0.45%, urea 0.25% - 0.45%, glycerin 0.30% - 0.55%, anhydroxylitol 0.20% - 0.40%, xylitylglucoside 0.45% - 0.70%, betaine 1.80% - 2.20% and glycerin 3.00% - 3.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
