Urea is one of the substances produced naturally by the skin to regulate its moisture content, called “natural moisturizing factors” (NMFs). Urea is hygroscopic, binding water in the uppermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum. Urea is also keratolytic, meaning it breaks down the connections between dead skin cells, improving cell shedding and, thus, smoothing the skin’s surface.

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.

Bisabolol can be derived synthetically, or extracted naturally from Chamomile, where the Bisabolol isomer is the active principle in the plant.

Ceramides are produced by the skin to create a natural protective barrier that prevents moisture loss due to evaporation, and to block out irritants that can cause inflammation and itching. When the skin’s ceramide levels fall, dryness and irritation can result. Ceramide-3 is a synthetically produced biologically identical molecule that protects the skin's natural moisture barrier.

Panthenol, also known as dexpanthenol or proVitamin B5, is a derivative of Vitamin B5 which helps attract water and keep it in the skin, making it a very effective moisturizer.

Glycerine, also called glycerol, is a humectant, which means it helps attract water thereby trapping it in the skin. This makes it a very effective moisturizer, as it both smoothes dry skin and gives it long-lasting protection and care. Glycerol is colourless, odourless and non-toxic.
