KEY ACTIVES AND BENEFITS OF MEDIK8 H.E.O MASK
|
HUMECTANTS |
EMOLLIENTS |
OCCLUSIVES |
|
Humectants work to draw moisture into the stratum corneum (the top layer of the skin) from the environment and the lower layers of the skin. They keep the skin hydrated and help to maintain its structure H.E.O. Mask Contains: Multi-Weight Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin, Natural Moisturising Factors (NMFs), Glyceryl Glucoside, Blue Sea Kale |
Emollient ingredients are usually skin-identical lipids, which slip into the skin's natural lipid barrier with ease to fill any gaps. These help to minimise TEWL and are essential for maintaining hydration in the upper layers of the skin. H.E.O. Mask Contains: Ceramides, Squalane, Linoleic Acid (Vitamin F) |
Occlusives are made up of large molecules that form a protective layer on the skin's surface. These reinforce the skin's natural protective barrier and prevent moisture from escaping. Dimethicone is our primary occlusive in H.E.O. Mask, and forms a breathable TEWL-blocking shield over skin. Dimethicone is non-comedogenic. H.E.O. Mask Contains: Dimethicone |
