Science

SODIUM COCOYL/OLIVOYL HYDROLYZED OAT PROTEIN functions as a gentle cleansing agent that also provides significant skin benefits. It works by retaining moisture, penetrating deeply to lock in hydration, and forming a protective film on the skin's surface to prevent transepidermal water loss. This action results in improved skin texture, increased elasticity, and a softer, smoother feel. Additionally, its inherent calming properties contribute to a soothing effect, beneficial for reducing irritation and enhancing skin firmness.
