Hi Zhi friends~
In the past two months
We have successively popularized several common additives
I wonder how much you have mastered?
I hope that you will learn the ingredient knowledge at the same time
Can gradually establish the correct concept of skin care
Scientific skin care, according to the skin conditions
Our skin is very expressive
It changes through its state
Send us important information
Is it healthy translucent or dull and sensitive
Are you in scientific nursing or blindly injured
The answer will eventually come to mind
But
What's next?
This is a problem that plagues a lot of people
So
Learning skincare is like learning the language of your skin
Let us understand its real appeal
And find the right skincare solution
There are thousands of skincare ingredients online
Advantages and disadvantages of individual popular ingredients
It is even more difficult to distinguish between true and false
At the end of the science of additives
Xiaozhi will focus on screening star skin care ingredients
Combined with literature information, we will introduce it to you
Strive to objectively restore the true appearance of the ingredients
Let's get to today's topic

Ectoin (ikdoin)
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="46" >What is ikdoine? </h1>
In 1985, Professor Galinski discovered in Egypt that a desert-growing salt-loving bacterium (Ectothiorhodospira Halochloris) synthesizes a special active substance that allows them to maintain cell stability in high-ultraviolet radiation, dryness, extreme heat and high salinity environments – this substance is named Ectoin (Icadoin), also known as tetrahydromethyridine carboxylic acid.
Ectoin has been around for 25 years since its discovery
With the continuous development of biotechnology and dermatology
The miraculous efficacy of Ectoin has also been gradually confirmed
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="93" > security</h1>
From 1993 to 2020, in various in vitro or in vivo experiments on Ectoin, there were no cases of allergies or other adverse reactions. At the same time, Ectoin is also approved for the treatment of infant atopic dermatitis and other conditions, which shows that the safety of Ectoin is enough to be reassuring.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="94" > moisturizing</h1>
Ectoin's unique molecular structure gives it a strong ability to complex water molecules. Experiments have shown that under the action of 1% concentration of Ectoin, the water content of the skin can be increased by 40%. Therefore, Ectoin can promote the long-term hydration of the skin, reduce the evaporation of moisture in the skin, and is an excellent natural moisturizer.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="95" > anti-aging</h1>
A series of studies from 1997 to 2007 found that there was a type of cell in the skin called Langerhans cell associated with skin aging — the more Langerhans cells there were, the younger the skin condition became.
When the skin is exposed to sunlight, the number of Langerhans cells is significantly reduced, but if Ectoin is applied in advance, it can effectively prevent the chain reaction caused by ultraviolet radiation. In addition, Ectoin is also effective in inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory molecules caused by ultraviolet rays and preventing DNA mutations induced by them – which are one of the causes of wrinkle formation.
The following illustration is a set of visual comparisons. After using the product containing 2% Ectoin for 4 consecutive weeks, the subjects had a noticeable improvement in smoothness, moisture content and skin tone.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="96" > stability</h1>
Ectoin grows in extreme environments, so the nature is very stable - strong light, high temperature, strong acid, strong alkali will not affect it; at the same time, as a compatible solute, it can be soluble in water, glycerin, propylene glycol and other common solvents, is a very rare skin care ingredient.
Therefore, Ectoin, which combines a variety of martial arts, is also known as the "magical repair factor" in the industry.
