LH2.0 2.0% HydrO18 Triple Lipid + Linoleic Acid - Sunflower Hydrating Moisturizer

The next frontier of barrier protection, with a patented ultrasonic technology that transforms water into an activated lipophilic complex charged with omega-6 fatty acids from sunflower. 2.0% HydrO18TM (activated lipophilic water) charged with omega-6 fatty acids from sunflower oil. Linoleic acid is an omega-6 fatty acid (found in sunflower) that serves as an essential fatty acid that the human body cannot produce on its own. It serves the skin barrier as a structural precursor for important skin lipids called ceramides (connecting end-to-end to form a lipid bilayer - the fundamental structural component of cell membranes that acts as a selective barrier and the skin’s primary defense system) We use a patented sonication process to activate water (the primary solvent that typically makes up 60 to 80% of moisturizer formulas) and infuse it with fatty acids from sunflower that mimic the skin’s lipid profile to penetrate through the skin’s waterproof boundary and replenish the deeper dermal layers.
