Cosmetic manufacturers offer a wide range of cleansing products for all skin types, but many of them contain aggressive surfactants that may irritate the skin and strip it of its natural lipid barrier responsible for protection. That’s why it is important to use high-quality cleansers that cleanse the skin delicately yet effectively. Elfa presents Dr. Sante Pure Code, an innovative skincare line designed for perfect cleansing.
Most mass-market facial cleansers are formulated with synthetic surfactants such as SLES (sodium laureth sulfate). SLES is an inexpensive and very effective foaming agent that behaves similarly to soap. Its cheapness and high foaming ability are the main reason SLES is so widely used. The downside is that, like many other detergents, SLES is an irritant. It is a common cause of red, irritated, and flaky skin. Of course, it’s not always the case, but if you have very sensitive skin, you’d better choose delicate facial cleansers formulated with mild surfactants. They will keep your skin clean and healthy.
Dr. Sante Pure Code is an innovative skin care line produced by Elfa, a Ukrainian-Polish group of companies whose products are very popular in Ukraine and neighbouring countries. Facial cleansers labelled as Dr. Sante Pure Code are free of SLES, SLS, and other irritating surfactants. Instead, they are formulated with micelles, special surfactant molecules with the hydrophilic “head” and hydrophobic “tail”. Micelles bind grime and excess sebum, making it easy to remove any kind of dirt from the surface of the skin.
Due to the micellar structure, facial cleansers by Dr. Sante Pure Code provide an excellent result. They easily remove dirt and grease without rubbing, aggressive surfactants or alcohol, making the skin flawlessly clean. But that’s not all. Pure Code cleansing products help to take care of the skin. They are enriched with special moisturising, soothing and softening ingredients that help to keep your skin healthy and looking young.
Dr. Sante Pure Code products contain aquaporins, also known as water channels. Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that facilitate the transport of water between cells. When used as a cosmetic ingredient, they help to restore water balance in epidermal cells and keep the skin hydrated. Hydration is important to maintain skin elasticity and prevent premature skin ageing.
The hydrating effect of aquaporins is complemented and enhanced by hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid can be found in connective, epithelial, and neural tissues of human body. It has many physiological functions and is a common ingredient in skincare products. Hyaluronic acid is one of the most effective natural moisturisers. It stimulates skin renewal, prevents premature skin ageing, produces a refreshing effect, and improves complexion.
Along with aquaporins and hyaluronic acid, Dr. Sante Pure Code products contains aloe vera leaf juice. This is another natural moisturiser that prevents dry skin and provides it with vitamins and minerals. Other natural ingredients contained in Pure Code facial cleansers include konjac (konnyaku) root extract, vitamins B5 and B5, and oat extract. They help to make the skin soft and silky smooth, prevent irritated and flaky skin, and stimulate collagen synthesis, which improves skin elasticity and helps to keep the skin looking young.
The Dr. Sante Pure Code line comprises 5 skin cleansing products, including two kinds of micellar water, a micellar cleansing gel wash, a facial toner for all skin types, and a bi-phase make-up remover. You can buy all these products in our online shop Organic Store.
