Facial Cleansing
Extremely mild surfactants based on body identical substances ensure a protecting cleansing of the face with a simultaneous cleansing and treating action due to body identical lipids. After using this FACIAL CLEANSER, remove with FACIAL TONIC or FACIAL TONIC SPECIAL.

Aqua, Glycerin, Urea, Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Lactic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glyceryl Oleate
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).
Glycerin:
Body-identical, a component of the natural moisturizing factor and lipids/triglycerides. Improves skin hydration, influences the consistency and texture of cosmetic products, and has antimicrobial properties.
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.
Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate:
It is composed of body-identical fatty acids and the body-identical amino acid glutamic acid. Used as a surfactant, a very mild cleaning agent.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate:
It is composed of body-identical fatty acids and the body-identical amino acid glutamic acid. Used as a surfactant, a very mild cleanser, it does not dry out the skin.
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.
Sodium Hyaluronate:
Sodium salt of hyaluronic acid. A natural moisturizer with skin-smoothing properties, an important natural component of the lower layers of the skin (dermis). Formerly extracted from rooster combs, it is now produced biotechnologically in improved quality.
Glyceryl Oleate:
It is a component of sebum, a partially saponified fat, with skin-protecting and moisturizing properties, and acts as a re-fatting agent in cleansing products. It also serves as a consistency enhancer and emulsifier for lotions and creams.
