Product Description: Emollant ECT is a naturally occurring compound produced by extremophilic microorganisms, recognized for its exceptional ability to protect cells and maintain hydration under extreme conditions. In skincare, it acts as a powerful multi-functional active that protects the skin against environmental aggressors (such as UV radiation and pollution), soothes irritation, and supports long-lasting hydration. Its unique capacity to attract and hold water enables the formation of a protective “hydro-complex” around skin cells, preserving their structure and resilience.

Application:

  • Hydration: Reinforces the skin’s natural barrier and provides long-term moisturizing.

  • Protection: Offers protection against UV rays, pollution, and other environmental stressors.

  • Soothing: Valued for its anti-inflammatory properties, making it suitable for sensitive or irritated skin.

  • Anti-Aging: Helps in reducing signs of aging by maintaining cellular health and preventing photo-aging.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container tightly closed and protect from light.

Dosage: Typically used at concentrations of 0.5% – 2.0% in cosmetic formulations.

Shelf time: 2 years from manufacturing date (Unopened packing).
