Glossary of cosmetic ingredients Active ingredient Algae extract

Alcohol

INCI

Effect

Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan) Extract Macrocystis Pyrifera Extract

Algae extract/ Chondrus Crispus/ Irish Moss Irish moss strengthens the skin’s resistance. It soothes and protects the skin and acts as a moisturizer and filming agent. As a result, it effectively prevents the loss of moisture. Macrocystis Pyrifera/ kelp or giant bladder kelp Kelp or giant bladder kelp belongs to the family of brown algae and can grow to a length of 40 m. The algae have lived in Antarctica for more than 800 million years. During this long period, neither climate change nor other harsh living conditions could do any harm. On the contrary: The algae developed extremely protective abilities in the process.

Alcohol or Alcohol, Denat.

Alcohol is not just a preservative but also has a cooling effect. If it is very concentrated, it even acts as a disinfectant. Based on its volatility, it is well tolerated on the skin. In facial care, it is always used in combination with a nourishing product. This ensures that the alcohol will not dry out the skin.

Allantoin

Allantoin

Allantoin has various effects. On the one hand, it has a keratolytic effect. This means that it can loosen the uppermost skin flakes. On the other hand, allantoin promotes wound healing and soothes irritation. Numerous tests have demonstrated that allantoin increases the skin’s moisture content, thereby smoothing and softening the skin.

Aloe vera

Aloe Barbadensis Extract

Aloe vera was used as early as by the ancient Egyptian queens Nefertiti and Cleopatra – They used it for a good reason: The Aloe vera plant combines more than 160 different active substances, e.g. vitamin C which strengthens immune defenses, proteins that stimulate metabolism, anti-inflammatory enzymes and cell-activating amino acids. Furthermore, what’s important in skin care is the fact that aloe vera has a tremendous ability to store water. This way, the active ingredient soothes damaged skin and provides it with lots of moisture.

Aluminum salt

Aluminum ­Chlorohydrate

Amino acids

Avocado

Antiperspirant ingredient. Aluminum salt narrows the ducts of the sweat glands for a pleasantly dry sensation over many hours. E.g. arginine. Amino acids are the smallest building blocks of proteins. They control metabolism and growth processes in the body. Skin cells also need these amino acids for metabolic processes and repair, since they are unable to produce some of them themselves.

Persea Gratissima or Persea Gratissima Oil

Avocado oil strongly resembles the skin’s natural components. As a result, it is well absorbed by the skin. It strengthens its barrier function and is particularly recommended for dry, flaky and rough skin. One avocado has an oil content of up to 80% and weighs up to 1.5kg.

Barberry

Berberis Aquifolium Extract

Barberry is a healing herb that grows into a bush about 3 meters in height. The bush bears oblong red berries in late summer from which a tanning agent is extracted. This tanning agent is antibacterial and antimycotic.

Bisabolol

Bisabolol

Bisabolol is contained in the essential oil of chamomile and is strongly anti-inflammatory. Due to this effect, bisabolol is also included in many wound and healing ointments. It soothes the skin and relieves irritations.

74

Active ingredient

INCI

Effect

Beeswax

Cera Alba

The cosmetic use of the natural substance of beeswax has a long tradition. Centuries ago, beeswax was mixed into precious ointments as a fragrance carrier, since it has the ability to bind essential oils. It distributes on the skin like a net in order to better bind moisture, thereby protecting the skin from drying out in cold and windy weather and making it soft and smooth.

Ceramides

Ceramide

Ceramides are characterized by their ability to reduce transepidermal water loss, thereby preventing the skin from drying out. Ceramides are located in the skin’s keratinous layer where they form a natural barrier together with other skin components. With increasing age, ceramides disappear from that layer and decrease to a value below 30 %.

Collagen

Atelocollagen, Collagen, Hydrolyzed Collagen

In cosmetics, skin-related collagen is used, which supports the skin’s own collagen in sustainably moisturizing the skin, in improving its smoothness and elasticity and in reducing small mimic wrinkles. Alcina uses atelocollagen, which is excellently tolerated by the skin and triggers no immune reactions that may lead to allergies.

DHA

Dihydroxyacetone

DHA is a sugar compound that oxidizes in the upper skin layers, thereby creating a healthy tan that fades after three to four days.

Peanut oil

Arachis Hypogaea Oil

Peanut plants were cultivated by the population of the Andes of Colombia as early as 3000 to 2000 BC. The oil extracted from the seeds of the plant makes the skin particularly soft and smooth.

Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract or Oil

The essential oil of the eucalyptus plant is used in both skin care and aromatherapy. The active ingredient cools and refreshes the skin. In aromatherapy, eucalyptus oil enhances concentration, supports logical thinking and helps against listlessness.

Enzyme

Subtilisin

Protease/ Protein-splitting enzyme The active enzyme protease stimulates natural skin renewal by dissolving protein bonds between the uppermost skin cells of the stratum corneum. The dry cells are loosened particularly gently and the younger cells lying underneath are exposed. The result: A fresh, radiant complexion and smooth, even skin.

Eyebright

Euphrasia Officinalis Extract

People used to say that eyebright was able to cure the blind. Today, the plant is used for fatigued eyes or for inflammation of the eyelids and conjunctivitis. The larger the plant, the greater the share of healing active ingredients it contains.

Fennel oil

Foeniculum Vulgare Oil

Fennel oil contains especially valuable ingredients: vitamin E as well as anethol and fenchone, which are also relevant for the oil’s typical scent. Fennel oil is successfully used for irritated skin. In addition, it binds moisture and creates a beautiful skin appearance.

Fruit acid (e.g. glycolic acid)

Glycolic Acid

Fruit acids are organic acids that occur in fruit or plants. Each fruit acid has its own purpose. For example, glycolic acid is used as a peeling in skin care, because it has great penetration properties to get into the deeper skin layers. As a result, it visibly improves the skin’s appearance.

Ginkgo

Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract

The ginkgo tree is native to China and Japan and is the oldest tree on earth. It is so robust that it is not even susceptible to environmental toxins or urban exhaust clouds. Its great value for cosmetics was discovered a long time ago. The active ingredient extracted from the leaves inhibits harmful oxidative processes in the skin cells, so Ginkgo biloba creates radiant, healthy-looking skin.

Glycoproteins

Glycoproteins

Glycoproteins from yeast extracts act like a protective mesh fabric on the skin under which moisture is stored. They visibly smooth the skin surface and maintain this effect over a longer time period.

75


Active ingredient

INCI

Effect

Grape seed oil

Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil

Grape seed oil is particularly precious, since pressing the small and hard grape seeds yields very little oil. However, grape seed oil is effective in a variety of ways: It is quickly absorbed by the skin and leaves a pleasant skin sensation. Based on its high share of antioxidants, it protects from photo-aging. The active ingredients lecithin and linoleic acid support the function of the skin barrier.

Guaiazulene

Hamamelis

Hops

Horse chestnut

Hyaluronic acid

Jojoba oil

Kaolin

Guaiazulene

Hamamelis ­Virginiana Water

Humulus Lupulus Extract

Guaiazulene has all the positive properties of chamomile azulene, even though it is not extracted from chamomile but from the resin of guaiac wood. That being said, it is often better tolerated than chamomile azulene and acts soothing and anti-inflammatory. The guaiac tree grows up to 15 meters tall and is native to tropical America. Hamamelis (witchhazel) This plant is a miracle of nature, since it blooms in winter and distributes its scent over a distance of several meters. In summer, it hides behind other plants to develop its healing ingredients. Researchers at the Luebeck university clinic found that the plant’s active ingredient promotes wound healing for eczema and flaky, very dry and chapped skin. Apart from a high share of anti-irritant tanning agents, hops extract also contains phytohormones. These botanical substances develop a light hormone-like effect. The extract can have a positive influence on demanding skin, which may develop deficiency symptoms due to hormonal changes.

Aesculus Hippocastanum Seed Extract

The substance aescin contained in horse chestnuts has particular healing properties. As a result, the horse chestnut was voted Tree of the Year. The active ingredient is contained in products against couperose and skin redness, since it is vasoconstrictive and decongestant.

Hyaluronic Acid

Natural hyaluronic acid is one of the most important filler substances between the skin cells. Biotechnologically manufactured hyaluronic acid imitates this function for cosmetic purposes. In the skin, it provides strong water-binding action, regulates the moisture content and improves elasticity and resilience. It generates an invisible film that can not be felt. As a result, the skin’s appearance becomes more refined and smoother and small wrinkles become almost invisible.

Simmondsia ­Chinensis Seed Oil

Kaolin

Jojoba oil has many benefits for the skin: It is quickly absorbed, leaves no oily film and even contains a light natural sunscreen. Based on its high vitamin E and provitamin A content, it is particularly nourishing for the skin and effectively prevents inflammation. Other features of jojoba oil: it is very pure and more like a liquid wax than an oil. Therefore, it does not become rancid. Kaolin is a healing clay that was already appreciated in ancient Egypt, by the ancient Greeks, by Hildegard von Bingen and Paracelsus, because kaolin has the ability to attach substances to its own surface or to enclose them. As a result, blemishes are prevented and the skin’s appearance is visibly improved.

Lactate

Lactate

Lactate is lactic acid. It gently regulates the skin’s pH and intensively moisturizes. Lactate is particularly recommended for very dry, flaky and irritated skin.

L-arginine

Arginine

L-arginine is an amino acid from which urea is formed in the skin. Both substances create a moisture depot in the skin that provides the keratinous layer with moisture for hours.

Lavender oil

Licorice

76

Parfum (Lavandula Angustifolia Oil)

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate

Lavender oil has not just a soothing effect but additionally releases a pleasant scent. Therefore, the ancient Persians, Greeks and Romans already burned lavender in order to cleanse sickbays. The botanical name is derived from the Latin “lavare,” to wash.

Active ingredient

INCI

Effect

Light-reflecting pigments

Silica and CI 77891 and CI 77491

Light-reflecting pigments reflect the light in a special way. This mitigates deep wrinkles and small wrinkles visually disappear entirely. The complexion looks more even and radiantly fresh.

Linden blossoms

Tilia Platyphyllos Flower Water

Linden blossoms are very popular in naturopathy. Based on their high mucilage content, they are soothing for the respiratory system and popular as an ingredient in herbal teas against the common cold. Furthermore, they are said to have a fever-reducing effect. On the skin, they also develop their anti-irritant effect and are particularly well suited for sensitive skin.

Linoleic acid

Linoleic Acid

Linoleic acid is an essential nutrient and must be ingested in sufficient quantities as part of our diet. A linoleic acid deficiency is harmful for the skin, which will look stressed and blemished. Among others, linoleic acid is converted into ceramides in the skin. They “caulk” the skin, thereby decreasing transepidermal water loss and increasing moisture binding in the skin.

Liposomes (e.g. lecithin)

Lecithin

Liposomes are small, hollow spheres that can absorb active ingredients into their interior. They consist of the same building blocks as e.g. the cell walls of skin cells. As a result, they can easily penetrate the skin and release the active ingredients to their environment.

Macadamia oil

Macadamia ­Ternifolia Seed Oil

Macadamia oil nourishes dry skin in particular with its high share of unsaturated fatty acids. The macadamia tree from the nuts of which the oil is extracted was only discovered in Australia in 1857.

Mango kernel oil

Mangifera Indica Seed Oil

Mango kernel oil is extracted from the kernels of ripe mango fruit. It is particularly rich in unsaturated fatty acids and optimally complements the skin’s spectrum of fatty acids. For soft and smooth skin.

Menthol

Menthol

Menthol is a component of peppermint oil and has a cooling and refreshing ­effect. Furthermore, it relieves skin itch and is a bactericide.

Nanoemulsion

Nanoemulsion

A nanoemulsion consists of olive oil, coconut oil, lecithin, squalanes, avocado oil and ceramide3. It is particularly well suited for the transport of oil-soluble active ingredients and supports the absorption of active ingredients into the skin. “Nano” means that the included liquids are very finely divided. They are quasi nano-fine droplets of these liquids.

Oat extract

Avena Sativa Kernel Extract

Oat extract is anti-irritant and relieves skin itch. Aventhramides are responsible for the anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effect in oat extract. Even in highly dilute form, they have a soothing effect on the skin. Therefore, this active ingredient is particularly well suited for sensitive skin and can be used against all forms of stress to the skin, such as sunburn or to protect it from irritation due to environmental impacts.

Panthenol

Panthenol

Provitamin B5 Panthenol, also referred to as dexpanthenol, is a precursor of B-vitamin pantothenic acid, into which it is converted in the skin. It penetrates the skin very well where it forms an active ingredient depot. Panthenol improves the skin’s moisture content. It promotes the metabolism of skin cells and their optimal supply. In addition, panthenol has a soothing and healing effect on the skin.

Pentapeptides

Pentapeptide-5

Pentapeptides are meant to trigger a kind of “wake-up call” in the skin that stimulates the skin cells to produce new collagen. The skin can, in a way, regenerate “from the inside.”

Peach kernel oil

Prunus Persica Kernel Oil

Peach kernel oil is a very thin oil. It penetrates the skin very well without leaving a greasy film on the skin. The oil of peach kernels is particularly rich in minerals.

Licorice is a component of the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra. The active ingredient soothes irritated skin, relieves redness and skin itch and inhibits inflammation. Due to these anti-irritant properties, it is preferably used for sensitive skin.

Effect

Plantain

Plantago Lanceolata

The active ingredients of plantain are characterized by its anti-inflammatory and anti-irritant effect. As a result, plantain is used for mouth and throat inflammations and insect bites in naturopathy. These properties also make it particularly valuable for cosmetic applications.

Vitamin E

Tocopherol

Vitamin E is considered one of the best active ingredients in cosmetics that is ­effective against free radicals. It is found in particularly high concentration in wheat germ oil, but it is also used in almost every other product, since this ­antioxidant is frequently used as a preservative.

Prickly pear cactus

Opuntia Ficus-Indica Stem Extract

Due to its extraordinary form, the cactus is known to be able to store lots of water. Furthermore, antioxidants protect the cactus from harmful UV radiation, so that it survives in the desert. The extract from the trunk of the prickly pear cactus is also particularly rich in minerals and antioxidants. Based on its very good water-binding properties, it provides the skin with moisture in the long term and soothes irritated skin in a sustained manner.

White tea

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

White tea grows in the Fujian province in southern China. White tea is very precious, since it can only be harvested on a few days in spring. In addition, only the youngest leaves, which are still covered in tiny white hairs, are picked. The leaves are carefully steamed and dried. This way, they remain essentially unchanged and have a particularly high concentration of phenolic ingredients. The so-called catechins are very effective free radical catchers.

Q10

Ubiquinone

Coenzyme Q10 Natural Q10 is found in living cells where it helps convert nutrition into energy as fuel for the mitochondria (the power stations of the cells). The amount of Q10 in the body decreases with increasing age, which slows down the flow of energy and the rate of cell regeneration. This is where Q10 incorporated in creams is helpful. It actively protects the skin from free radicals and other environmental damage.

Wheat extract

Triticum Vulgare Gluten

Wheat germ offers an incredible variety of vitamins, trace elements and minerals. For cosmetic purposes, protein is extracted from wheat germ. It improves the skin’s moisture content and provides a pleasant skin sensation.

Red wine extract (polyphenols)

Vitis Vinifera Vine Extract

Among hundreds of different secondary botanical substances found in wine, the polyphenols (antioxidants) are particularly effective. During wine production, they are transferred into the wine from all parts of the grape. When used on the skin, they counteract cell damage by protecting the skin from free radicals.

Sage

Salvia Officinalis Leaf Water

Sage extracts are characterized by their high content of tanning agents and essential oils. They have a constrictive, hemostatic and antibacterial effect and are therefore used to treat mouth and throat inflammation. In cosmetic products, they are used against acne and oily and blemished skin.

Salicylic acid

Salicylic Acid

Salicylic acid was originally extracted from willow bark (Salix spec.) and is considered a precursor of the active ingredient of Aspirin. In cosmetic products, salicylic acid has an antibacterial and keratolytic effect, which is why it is frequently used in acne therapy.

Shea butter

Butyrospermum Parkii Extract

The oil from the seeds of the shea tree (karité) is particularly valuable. It is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and unsaponifiable components. Its effect: With shea butter, stressed skin becomes soft and smooth again.

Silicon

Silica

In the human body, silicon is among the trace elements and found in each and every cell. Silicon is unique in that it simultaneously provides firmness and elasticity – like in a grass blade that could not stand upright yet be flexible at the same time without silicon. In cosmetics, silicon supports aging connective tissue in its firmness.

Soy

Glycine Soja

As early as about 5,000 years ago, soy was already harvested as “TaTeau” (the great bean) in China. The rejuvenating effect of soy has also been known for centuries. A study with 234 women at the Dermatology Clinic of the University of Mannheim has shown that regular application of soy extract can significantly improve the skin’s appearance.

Urea

Urea

Urea is formed in the skin. It increases the skin’s ability to bind moisture, thereby creating a plump and smooth skin appearance. In cosmetic products, urea also has an enormous moisture-enhancing effect as well as skin itch-relieving properties. Due to these positive properties, dermatologists like to prescribe creams containing urea as an active ingredient.

Vitamin A (retinol)

Retinol

Retinol, the pure form of vitamin A, is a fountain of youth for the skin. In cosmetics, this active ingredient ranks among the most effective anti-wrinkle ingredients. It makes the skin visibly smoother and firmer and reduces wrinkles.
