Masks
Ideal when the skin needs not only moisture and active substances, but also when the upper layers do not produce enough oil. The mild kaolin in this mask has a cleansing and deeply calming action. Active substances such as jojoba oil, lactate and basil intensely nourish the skin.

Aqua:
Water. It makes up approximately 65% of the weight of the human body and is therefore essential for bodily functions, including those of the skin. In many cosmetic products (aqueous solutions, cleansers, emulsions), water is the ingredient with the largest proportion of the formulation and forms the basis of the aqueous phase in emulsions. Water is a good solvent for polar (hydrophilic) substances such as alcohols, water-soluble vitamins, or salts. For use in cosmetic products, the water used is generally pre-treated to remove microorganisms that could lead to product spoilage or dissolved salts that might impair the stability of emulsions or gels (sterilization and desalination).
Kaolin:
Aluminum silicate – High-purity alumina, cleansing and degreasing effect, primarily in masks
Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil:
Jojoba oil: A natural, liquid wax with excellent tolerability and outstanding protective and skin-nourishing properties. Creates a pleasant and velvety skin feel.
Butylene Glycol:
Solvent with moisturizing properties for the skin, very well tolerated, should be preferred to propylene glycol in products used daily.
Stearyl Alcohol:
A fatty alcohol identical to those found in the body, occurring as an intermediate in fat metabolism, also present in small amounts in the epidermis. A consistency enhancer in emulsions.
Butyrospermum Parkii Butter:
Shea butter: Fat from the seeds of the Butyrospermum parkii plant. It is particularly suitable for the care of dry skin and skin damaged, for example, by sun exposure. The skin becomes softer, and protection against dehydration and UV radiation is built up.
Urea:
Water-soluble urea is used in numerous cosmetic products. Urea is a component of the natural moisturizing factors in the stratum corneum (content between 7% and 12%; up to half that in chronically dry skin) and has a high water-binding capacity. It contributes to sustained skin hydration and reduces transepidermal water loss. Urea has a keratoplastic effect, and at higher concentrations, a keratolytic effect, and is therefore also used in the care of skin affected by psoriasis or atopic dermatitis (eczema). Furthermore, urea is able to reduce the irritating potential of surfactants.
Sodium Lactate:
Sodium lactic acid: Has a moisturizing effect on the skin, with the physiological pH value of the skin of an average of 5.5. Important component of the skin's natural moisturizing factor (NMF) and acid mantle.
Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate:
O/W emulsifier derived from glucose and fat, very skin-friendly and moisturizing.
Ceteareth-20:
Emulsifier based on fatty alcohols.
D-Mixed Tocopherols:
This is the name given to a mixture of natural tocopherols (vitamin E; D-alpha, beta, gamma and delta tocopherol). Vitamin E is the most important skin-protecting vitamin, shielding the skin from UV rays and free radicals.
Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate:
Highly effective antioxidant and vitamin C booster for the skinVitamin C is stored as a phosphate ester. It is a water-soluble vitamin with antioxidant properties. It counteracts cell-damaging free radicals, protects unsaturated fatty acids from oxidation, and is essential for the formation of collagen and thus all connective tissue, as well as for the function of the immune system. Together with vitamin E, it is very effective in preventing the formation of nitrosamines.
Lactic Acid:
Lactic acid. Occurs as a metabolic product in the body and on the skin; in higher concentrations and at a low pH value of 2 to 3, it has an exfoliating effect on the stratum corneum; in buffered form (physiological pH value of the skin approx. 5.5), it supports the moisture content and preserves the skin's acid mantle.
Allantoin:
Allantoin is a naturally occurring, water-soluble substance chemically related to urea. It is found in various plants, but for cosmetic use, it is now produced synthetically. Its most important property is the stimulation of cell regeneration. It promotes collagen production, skin regeneration and wound healing, stimulates desquamation, smooths the skin, and can have a soothing effect on atopic dermatitis.
Ocimum Basilicum Oil:
Basil oil: Essential oil, antispasmodic, calming, antiseptic, relieves itching from insect bites, insect repellent.
Xanthan Gum:
Polysaccharide, a natural gelling agent with very good skin-friendly properties, is obtained biotechnologically.
