Ectoin is the self-defense and survival substance of extremophilic microorgansims living in hostile environments such as deserts, salt lakes, arctic ice, the deep sea or hot springs. It was discovered in 1985, when a German scientist investigated microorganisms, which he surprisingly found in a salt lake in Wadi El Natrun (Egyptian desert).
Another skin care component from Bitop is Glycoin. This multifunctional anti-aging and cell-boosting active ingredient targets tired, stressed or mature skin. The natural stress protection molecule revitalizes, stimulates and improves slowed or impaired cell functions to re-activate the power and appearance of youthful skin.
Glycoin natural is the protective and re-activating substance of the resurrection plant Myrothamnus flabellifolia, which can be found in the deserts of southern Africa.More info: www.bitop.de
