Ectoin
Ectoin is a skin conditioner and also functions as a stabiliser. The skin is exposed to numerous stress factors. The better the cells can cope with the stress, the more intensive is the protection of the skin. Ectoin is a natural, active substance with very good membrane and cell protection properties and these are reasons why it is used widely in the cosmetics industry today. It has been shown to some extent that ectoin helps protect skin from UVA damage.
