It is a stable semi-transparent gel; from Castor Oil, it gets the immediate, intensive, long-lasting moisturizing effect, relieving skin’s roughness and dryness; from the Olive Unsaponifiables it gets the Squalene, natural Tocopherols, Sterol Esters and Triterpene Alcohols, with great skin affinity and penetration properties, as well as amazing interactions with skin metabolism. It acts as a sensorial agent, giving a smooth touch to the formulation and leaving a nice substantive after-feel; and forms a thin layer on the skin surface, preventing TEWL (Transepidermal Water Loss). Its high affinity with the skin and natural skin lipids make it a great Emollient. In addition, it brings brightness and shine to the hair.
