Hydrafence™

INCI / Composition:

• Amylopectin

• Lithothamnion calcareum extract

• Glycerin

• Lactic acid

• Pentylene glycol

• Xanthan gum

• Preservatives

Technology:

• Forms a hydrocolloid matrix → retains water and slowly releases it to the skin.

• Acts as a “reservoir” for long-lasting hydration.

Claims & Benefits:

1. Long-lasting Hydration – Provides up to 120 hours of moisture.

2. Reinforces Skin Barrier – Reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and helps skin recover.

3. Stimulates Ceramide Production – Improves skin cohesion and resilience.

4. Soothing & Protective – Works internally (on skin processes) and externally (barrier protection).

5. Improves Smoothness – Leaves skin soft and supple.

Usage:

• Typical concentration: 0.5% – 5%

• Formulation phase: Water-based systems (serums, creams, lotions)

• pH considerations: Ensure compatibility due to lactic acid content

Mechanism of Action:

• Amylopectin hydrocolloid → slow-release hydration

• Lithothamnion calcareum extract → calcium for skin cell regulation + antioxidant benefits

• Glycerin + Lactic Acid → immediate hydration and mild acidification for comfort

Best For:

• High-performance hydration products

• Barrier repair and skin-soothing formulations

• Water-based creams, serums, and lotion
