Boswellia Nanoparticles

Care of barrier disordered skin

Extract for the supporting care of hyperactive and barrier disordered skin.

Composition: 

Active agent complex of boswellia sacra extract (frankincense extract), avocado phytosteroles and highly enriched phosphatidylcholine (lecithin) in aqueous nano particles dispersion.

INCI:  

Aqua, Olea Europaea Fruit Oil, Alcohol, Lecithin, Glycerin, Boswellia Serrata Extract, Persea Gratissima Oil, Urea, Xanthan Gum, Tocopheryl Acetate, Phytosterols, Olea Europaea Oil Unsaponifiables.

Properties:

Nano particles stabilize boswellia sacra extract (frankincense extract) in high dosage, transport the active agent into the skin and enable skin application in spite of the resinous property of boswellia. Frankincense extract inhibits the expression of metalloproteinases, which induce the degradation of collagen. Metalloproteinases are activated when the skin is strongly stressed by UV radiation. Furthermore boswellia inhibits the 5-lipoxygenase, a key enzyme of inflammation processes. Frankincense encapsulated in nanoparticles is not only used for antiaging skin care, but also for accompanying care of inflamed skin disorders and especially actinic keratoses. Phytosteroles ("unsaponifiables") from avocado oil extract support the care of barrier disordered skin.

Application:  

Additive for DMS® base creams.

Local skin treatment by applying the pure concentrate.

Remarks

The concentrated active agent should be applied sparingly to the skin similar to dabbing in an ampoule product.
