Sebum Control Face Drying Cream with Niacinamide 5% - Silicon Free, Alcohol Free

Lecithin, with its antioxidant properties, is a beneficial ingredient in cosmetics. It is often added as a natural emulsifying agent and dispersing agent for pigments. Furthermore, lecithin is naturally present in the body and works with the skin to restore moisture.

The lecithin used in cosmetics is hydrogenated lecithin, produced by adding hydrogen to lecithin. When applied topically, it softens and soothes the skin, creating a protective barrier to lock in moisture and keep out environmental pollutants. This makes it an excellent addition to products promoting good skin health, such as restorative creams for mature or dry skin.

As an emulsifier, lecithin works well with most skincare ingredients, synergizing them and stabilizing the product. It also helps active ingredients penetrate the skin more effectively, improving overall product effectiveness.

While lecithin as an emulsifier may not be popular in commercial creams or challenging in homemade cosmetics, I personally love lecithin cream. It leaves the skin feeling comfortable, soft, and moisturized, unlike any other ointment, especially during dry winter months.

Lecithin is a supplement intended for consumption as a food. It is one of the best cosmetic ingredients, as it does not contain toxic chemicals. Our skin absorbs everything we apply to it, so it is crucial to choose safe ingredients for our cosmetic products.
