Of particular interest is the introduction of Sodium PCA in our massage lotion formula. Sodium PCA is the natural moisturizing factor of the skin and allows the skin to fully remoisturize after being subjected to drying conditions, such as wind and sun, harsh detergents and soaps, bathing and swimming. Older people have about 50% less Sodium PCA in their skin than younger people, thus contributing to a dry, hard skin condition.
Sodium PCA and Glycerine act as both humectants and as moisturizers. They draw and bind moisture to the skin, even in low humidity conditions. Aloe reduces the effects of sun and wind burns, and the reddening caused by soaps detergents. Allantoin (derived from the Comphrey plant) increases the ability of the skin to heal itself. Coconut Oil and Cetyl Alcohol (a waxy solid derived from palm oil) act as emollients to smooth and soften the skin. Vitamin E is added for stability.
