Lipomoist™ 2036 molecular film
Lipomoist™ 2036 consists of a combination of polysaccharides and vegetable derived peptides chosen for their ability to form a molecular or monolayer film on the skin to reduce transepidermal water loss, increase collagen IV production, increase cellular protein production, and improve delivery of active ingredients to the stratum corneum. Lipomoist™ 2036 promotes healthy skin by maintaining the organization of lipids, an essential component of its barrier mechanisms.
The three amino acids found in Lipomoist™ 2036 - arginine, serine, and proline - have important roles in wound healing and collagen production, which can improve skin’s firmness. Collagen type IV provides support for other cells, like glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteins, in the basement membrane found between the epidermis and dermis, creating a stable and firmer structure. Our skin’s natural moisturizing factor contains about 40% amino acids, which help to maintain skin’s hydration and barrier function.
Lipomoist™ 2036 molecular film also contains glucose, hydrolyzed wheat and soy proteins, hydrophilic compounds that have a tensing effect on the skin. Lipomoist™ 2036 has been specifically formulated to offer firming and lifting properties in cosmetic formulations. Hydrolyzed vegetable proteins also help keep skin hydrated by film forming to reduce transepidermal water loss.
Products that contain Lipomoist™ 2036 will spread more easily and absorb faster while film forming and hydrating. It’s a great inclusion in firming and moisturizing products for dry or aging skin types.
