The Basic-creams do not have the characteristics of oil in water or water in oil emulsions, instead they do react like the surface lipids of the skin.

The Basisc-creamminimizes the negative effects to the skin, e.g. it prevents the wash-out of skin lipids so that neither the skin-boundary-function nor the balance of the water transmission through the stratum corneum is disturbed.

The Basic Cream– efficacy on the skin

Efficacy on the skinThe disturbed function of the IL (intercellular lipids) is one of the biggest problems cosmetic trying to be solved by cosmetic-manufacturers and pharmaceutical industry.
In the short term, disturbances and injuries of the skin can result in roughness, inflammations, scaliness, itchiness etc.

In the long term, the disturbed functions of the skin lipids can cause further deseases that need medical treatment (allergic and microbiologic problems).

The harmed function is caused by a disturbance of the metabolic disorder of the epidermal cells, also by environmental influences or aggressive detergents, but nowadays also by use of cosmetic products containing large amounts of emulsifiers.

This is called the “wash-out-effect”!
