A Rich and Caring Cholesterol Body Butter that contains ingredients to moisturize and re-enforce the natural skin barrier.
This Rich and Caring Cholesterol Body Butter formulation features TEGO® Sterol KCS which is a skin-identical cholesterol derivative. Cholesterol and cholesterol derivatives are a major component of the extracellular lipid matrix through their function in the lamellar structure formation. These natural, bio-identical products stabilize emulsions and enhance penetration of active ingredients in the lipid matrix.
TEGO® Care 450 MB is incorporated into the formulation to provide emulsion stabilization, moisturizing properties, and caring skin feel.
