Ectoin + Ceramides Dry Skin Cream - Irritated Skin's Best Friend

Introducing  Ectoin + Ceramides for Dry Skin 

Uniquely formulated to bring tranquility to Irritated, Compromised Skin

Your Skin's Calming Oasis

BENEFITS AND DESCRIPTION

Ectoin + Ceramides Dry Skin Cream is the perfect antidote for dry, itchy, inflamed, and sensitive skin.   It's Irritated Skin's Best Friend. This effective formula combines the exceptional ingredients Ectoin and the full range of Ceramides to calm and rehydrate stubbornly dry skin. A light feeling yet highly emollient cream that restores balance, deeply nourishes, and comforts your irritated, parched skin.

So often products for Dry, Inflamed, Irritated Skin are laden with butters and silicones.  Silicones give a false sense of plumpness that when washed off, the skin snaps back to its dry, irritated state. While Cupaucu Butter is in this formula, it is used sparingly, so that skin doesn't feel suffocated in a lard-like greasy layer.  Our goal is to improve irritated skin, not suffocate it with layers of butters that just give a temporary relief.  The goal is to help relieve the condition for longer-term healthy skin. 

For Normal to Dry, Dry-Sensitive, Dry Dehydrated and Irritated Skin. 

EFFECTIVE INGREDIENTS

• Ectoin (also spelled Ectoine)- A new natural, effective, exciting multifunctional ingredient for irritated, flaky, red, inflamed skin.  An extremolyte, extracted from microorganisms evolved in extreme salinity, heat, cold and drought.  An amino acid found in the most challenging dry environments.  Protects cellular integrity.  Antioxidant helps to protect against pollution and UV rays (although it does not replace sunscreen). Restores a calm Microbiome.
• Full Range of Ceramides- A most important complex of ingredients known to repair & restore the protective barrier function of the skin. 
• Pomegranate Extract sustainably & uniquely formulated-  Reduces cellular senescence that triggers inflammation and can accelerate aging.  Elastin synthesis and important antioxidant protection
• Ferulic Acid - Antioxidant, excellent at neutralizing free radicals, especially those known as "superoxides"
• Oat Extract- known to calm itchy, irritated skin
• Powerful Botanical Antioxidants Cica (Centella Asiatica), Green Tea- to sooth red reactive skin and protect
• Emollients Prickly Pear Oil, Rice Bran Oil and Cupaucu Butter- to provide deep emollience.  Cupaucu Butter has a creamier feel than Shea Butter
• Polyglutamic (PGA) and Hyaluronic Acids- to provide deep hydration

• Ectoin is an ingredient that "plays" and layers well with many other skincare treatments such as retinols, Vitamin C, Glycolic Acids, and other ingredients that can irritate skin.
• Using a water-based hyaluronic and polyglutamic serum prior to applying this Cream creates another layer of hydration--especially good for dry-dehydrated skin.  You may wish to consider  our Drench & Quench or 10% Niacinamide Serums
• A quality oil-serum that absorbs well and doesn't "sit" on the skin, and is excellent for dry, sensitive skin is our Age Defying Bakuchiol Serum.  Apply the cream afterward to seal in its benefits.
• Wonderful to use for parched, dry, cracked hands.  Healthcare professionals and any other profession requiring frequent harsh hand washing would benefit using the Cream at night after their last hand washing!
• Use as a post treatment to help quiet the temporary irritation caused by glycolic acid peels, and other esthetician treatments.
