Developed specifically for slightly to very dry skin: intensively nourishing, silky light – and never tacky.
This body milk was developed specifically for slightly to very dry skin. It provides intensive moisture for 24 hours and strengthens the skin’s protective barrier against external influences.
Its high content of shea butter and jojoba oil creates an intensively nourished, pleasant skin feel. As a light, silky emulsion, the milk melts into the skin without leaving any tackiness. Because it spreads so easily over large areas, very little is needed.
The skin is soothed and feels refreshed and temptingly supple.
Urea occurs naturally in the skin at a concentration of 8–11 µg per square centimetre; where the value falls below this, the skin is usually dry. Applied externally at concentrations of between 1 and 3 %, urea raises the skin’s urea concentration and has a moisturising effect thanks to its water-binding properties.
The combination of mannitol and glycerin increases the moisture content of the skin. Both penetrate the skin and markedly increase its water-binding capacity, so the complexion looks plumper.
Vitamin E is a component of all human cell membranes and acts as a lipid-soluble antioxidant. It protects polyunsaturated fatty acids in membrane lipids, lipoproteins and depot fat from oxidation. Tocopheryl acetate is a form of vitamin E with a pronounced radical-scavenging effect.
Shea butter contains a high proportion of unsaturated fatty acids and phytosterols. These are incorporated into the lipid layers of the skin in greater quantity and thereby strengthen its barrier. Shea butter improves the skin’s lipid mantle and protective layer.
Jojoba is a liquid wax and very similar to human sebum. Unlike fatty oils it cannot be broken down by the skin’s own lipases: it distributes itself within the stratum corneum, remains there comparatively longer and increases its elasticity – improving the lipid mantle without acting occlusively.
The effect lasts for 24 hours.
