Ectoine

Ectoine is an extremely multifunctional active ingredient with exceptional properties for cellular protection from external agents and intense moisturizing and anti-aging action. It is a true 'shield' protecting our skin.

It is derived from amino acids and belongs to the family of extremolytes, small molecules found in nature that protect extremophilic microorganisms and plants, enabling them to survive in extreme conditions such as deserts and glaciers.

Its incredible natural capacity is equally appreciated by our skin. It is an active ingredient capable of attracting water to itself, preserving skin hydration for a long time. It enhances the skin barrier, protecting us from external agents and environmental stress, particularly from the effects of UV and blue light.

For these reasons, it is also ideal for particularly sensitive skin prone to irritation.
