Ectoin is a natural cyclic tetrahydropyrimidine, which is a low molecular weight, water-binding and organic osmolyte.

Ectoin is an amino acid derivate developed by professional fermentation platform technology, with high stability and safety profile. Ectoin belongs to the group of extremolytes, and it can protects extremophilic microorganisms from the lethal and extreme conditions of their habitats because of forming the protection efficacy of DNA, proteins and cell membrane. Ectoin has remarkable protective and repairing effects, helps skin resist external pressure, and can be widely used in personal care products such as repair, anti-pollution, sun care, anti-aging products and color cosmetic products.

Ectoin has a protective effect. And repair cells High efficiency gentle on all skin types and can be in all environments (pH 1-9, maximum temperature tolerance 80℃ for a long time), so it can be used in many skin care products.

Used in cosmetic products, Ectoin offers protection to skin cells and prevents early cell damage. It improves skin hydration, skin elasticity and the skin surface structure. Therefore, Ectoin is used as anti-aging ingredient in already more than 200 cosmetic products worldwide.

Ectoin supports the regeneration process of the skin, protects against new damage, reduces erythema and smoothens the skin.

Ectoin prevents the effects of UVA-induced and accelerated skin ageing at different cell levels.

Ectoin is a moisturizing and anti-aging agent. It exhibits wrinkle reduction activity and skin smoothing property. It offers well-being aspects on skin and protections with long term effect by water reservoir action. It also provides sun, UV-A, infra red and visible light protection. It minimizes oxidative stress due to blue light impact. Carbonylated protein formation is reduced under blue light and UV-A stress resulting in improved skin evenness.

Ectoin has inflammation-inhibiting properties

Ectoin protects against allergens and particulate matter.  In cosmetics, Ectoin helps to decrease skin-aging caused by particulate matter.

7 days long-lasting moisturizing effect
