Geek & Gorgeous 101 Hydration Station 5% Glycerin + 1% Ectoin Cream 50ml

Description

Geek & Gorgeous 101 Hydration Station 5% Glycerin + 1% Ectoin Cream (50ml) is a lightweight, refreshing gel-cream formulated with hydrating Glycerin and skin-protecting Ectoin for dewy, plump and healthy-looking skin.
Suitable for use on normal, combination and oily skin types, this cream is especially recommended if your skin is prone to breakouts. This textured moisturiser not only hydrates but also protects and soothes the skin. The 5% Glycerin content is enhanced by hydrators working in synergy with Glycerin, a new-generation molecule Isosorbide Dicaprylate and Aquaxyl, a sugar trio, which supports the transportation of Glycerin throughout the epidermis and strengthens the skin barrier by stimulating the skin’s own ceramide production. The 1% Ectoin element in the formula hydrates and soothes the skin, while it also combats environmental aggressors including pollution, oxidative stress, and blue and visible light. A combination of calming Allantoin and Bisabolol further enhances the soothing ability of Hydration Station. Free from fragrance, colourant, gluten and alcohol.
Cruelty-free & vegan-friendly.
Key Ingredients:
Glycerin – a natural, water-binding moisturiser that can also be found in our skin. It is the gold standard, the most proven humectant that goes beyond simple hydration. It keeps the skin lipids between our skin cells in a healthy (liquid crystal) state, protects against irritation, and helps to restore the barrier. 5% of Glycerin counts as a medium amount, ideal for combination-oily skin.
Ectoin – an all-around skin protectant. This well-researched, multi-functional active has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, pollution & light protecting, skin hydrating, barrier repairing as well as anti-ageing properties.
Isosorbide Dicaprylate – a modern skin hydrator and barrier builder molecule that works particularly well with Glycerin. It is known to upregulate Aquaporin-3, the important water & glycerin channels in the epidermis.
Xylitylglucoside + Anhydroxylitol + Xylitol – a sugar-based humectant trio that works in synergy with glycerin to increase the skin’s water-binding capacity and strengthen the skin barrier.
Bisabolol + Allantoin – two classic skincare ingredients known for their skin soothing abilities.
