Functions and mechanism of action:
Ectoin works at the molecular level by increasing the ability of water molecules to form hydrogen bonds. This creates a hydration layer around the proteins, which protects the skin from moisture loss, strengthens and repairs cellular functions and stabilizes the skin barrier. This action makes Ectoin extremely effective in protecting and regenerating the skin while minimizing the risk of irritation.
In vitro experiment
According to Hunter Biotech’s test report, it was found that the caudal fin area of the fish in the test group that received Ectoin application increased significantly compared to the control group. This result indicates the effectiveness of Ectoin in the repair and regeneration process.
Applications:
Ectoin is used in a wide range of cosmetic products, offering protection, repair, anti-inflammatory, allergy relief, anti-aging and moisturizing effects. It is a key ingredient in products such as day and night creams, essences, eye creams and face masks. Thanks to its properties, Ectoin is an ideal choice for those looking for broad-spectrum active ingredients that effectively care for and protect the skin.
