Tangible results are at the heart of every BABOR formula. The DOCTOR BABOR HYDRATION Cryo Plumping Mask, the improved successor to the Hydrating Bio-Cellulose Mask, optimally cools and moisturizes the skin after just one application and prevents the skin from drying out. Thanks to the innovative sheet technology, the highly concentrated active ingredients can penetrate the skin directly without evaporating – for a maximum effect!
The revitalizing formula is also free of artificial color and fragrances, meaning it can be integrated into any existing care routine as a high-performance additional treatment for every skin type and condition.
Polyglutamic acid (PGA), a natural polymer obtained via a biotechnical process through the fermentation of soybeans, is characterized by its unusual effect as a humectant in the skin. Polyglutamic acid forms a protective film on the surface of the skin to minimize moisture loss and boost the skin’s ability to store moisture. Thanks to these water-binding properties, PGA can store up to four times more moisture than hyaluronic acid, as proven in scientific studies. This leaves the skin instantly looking smoother and more elastic. In addition, PGA can inhibit the activity of the enzyme hyaluronidase, which minimizes the natural hyaluronic acid content, stabilizing and increasing the content of hyaluronic acid in the skin. The combination of the two active ingredients has a synergetic, moisturizing effect. In addition, PGA stimulates the natural moisturizing factors (NMF) and increases its own production to improve the skin’s natural hyaluronic acid synthesis.
Extract derived from the medicinal plant Centella asiatica, commonly known as Indian pennywort or Asiatic pennywort, is obtained from a moisture-loving tropical plant that grows in China and Sri Lanka, among other places. Based on its healing, regeneration-promoting properties, Centella asiatica is used not only in traditional Chinese medicine, but has also proven successful in cosmetics, enjoying great popularity outside of Asia today. The calming, moisturizing extract has a strong antioxidant effect, protects the skin from free radicals, and strengthens the barrier function.
Can also be used after exposure to the sun. Store in the fridge for the best cooling effect. For an even greater moisturizing effect, it is recommended to apply the DOCTOR BABOR Hydro Replenishing Gel Cream afterwards.
