"ORMAGEL SH has moisturizing and skin firmness properties."
Beneficial to human health and beauty since ancient times
Marine algae have been used for skin and hair care for thousands of years. Their inherent moisturizing, healing and strengthening properties have been recognized since ancient times as beneficial for human health and beauty. Every culture bordering the ocean has traditionally used marine algae for beauty care and, in fact, new discoveries of their qualities and benefits are still being made.
"ORMAGEL SH reduces skin irritation and transepidermal water loss in sensitized skin."
ORMAGEL SH protects and relieves the skin of cutaneous irritations caused by the action of aggressive components in cosmetic formulas, such as shaving creams, liquid soaps, bubble baths, lighteners, thioglycolate based straighteners and many others.
The ionic interactions between the sulphate groups of polygalactosides and the amino radicals of the skin confer on ORMAGEL SH increased cutaneous substantivity and capacity for the formation of a protective film with high sensorial performance and smooth touch.
A study of Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) using volunteers who had selected areas of the forearm (sensitized by tape-stripping) washed under controlled conditions demonstrated that the addition of only 0.8% of ORMAGEL SH significantly reduces Transepidermal Water Loss in sensitized skin, confirming its protective action.
