Visit Silab (Booth No. 827) to learn more about protecting the skin's barrier function.
According to Silab, the epidermal barrier function protects the body against external stresses and excessive water loss. Two metabolic pathways are particularly important in the maintenance of skin barrier function homeostasis: the lipid flow across the epidermis, which forms the inter-corneocyte lipid cement, and the cohesion of the upper layers of the epidermis by the tight junctions.
By developing two active ingredients targeting these two essential metabolic pathways for maintenance of a complete barrier function, Silab provides a natural solution which meets the current expectations of the cosmetics industry in the area of moisturizing and restructuring care products.
• Cohesium is an active ingredient which reinforces the cohesion of the upper layers of the epidermis by tightening the intercellular junctions, thus restructuring the barrier function.
• Pro-Lipiskin is an active ingredient which boosts all stages of the flow of epidermal lipids, thus restoring the lamellar lipid cement that forms the permeable barrier of the epidermis.
