ALLANTOIN

a.k.a. Allantoin

Allantoin is one of the most versatile skin soothers in cosmetic science. We include it across most of our active formulations to counterbalance any potential irritation from exfoliating acids and retinol, while supporting skin repair.

MECHANISM

Stimulates cell proliferation in wound areas and has keratolytic properties that loosen the stratum corneum. Provides potent anti-irritant action that soothes post-exfoliation or sensitized skin.

BENEFITS

Soothing — promotes cell regeneration, anti-irritant, keratolytic, moisturizing
