How to maintain young skin and beautiful hair

Moisture is absolutely essential to maintaining young, bright and healthy skin. Exposure to sun and cold weather, frequent showering, stress or prolonged stays in heated or air-conditioned rooms are just a few of the many elements affecting the skin.

Moisture loss, changes within the protective lipid composition or impaired barrier function, results in rough, scaly, flaky, tight and often itchy skin, which appears tired, lackluster and dull. This can be controlled either by locking moisture into the skin or by replenishing it. Use of protective emollients or lipids, for example, is one of the quickest and most effective methods to lock moisture into the skin.

Cognis offers a wide variety of concepts for creating moisturizing products to help keep facial and body skin supple and smooth. They range from natural actives and sensorial gels to modern textures, light to rich emulsions and lipid layer enhancers for body cleansing systems.
