Avenys Vitalicia Your Skin Saver Cleanser 80Ml

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Reduces inflammation, deeply hydrates, stimulates collagen synthesis, accelerates wound healing.

Why It's Used: Used in anti-aging, sensitive skin, post-procedure, and eczema care for multi-action anti-inflammatory, moisturizing, and regenerative benefits.

How It Works: Binds to dectin-1 and cr3 receptors on macrophages and keratinocytes activating tgf-beta and collagen synthesis pathways. also activates macrophage phagocytosis for wound healing. humectant from polysaccharide hydroxyl groups.

Typically Found In: Anti-aging serums,sensitive skin products,post-procedure care,eczema treatments

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Active ingredient – polysaccharide / immunomodulator

Secondary Functions: Immunomodulator,wound healing,collagen stimulation

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%–5%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Yes – yeast or oat-derived

Halal Status: Yes

Source Notes: Derived from saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast (1,3/1,6-linked) or avena sativa oats (1,3/1,4-linked). molecular weight affects penetration – lower mw for skin penetration vs high mw for surface hydration.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low

Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic

Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating; ideal for reactive and sensitive skin.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes – particularly recommended for sensitive skin

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.

Works Well With: Ceramides,panthenol,allantoin,hyaluronic acid,centella asiatica

Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Yeast beta-1,3/1,6-glucan receptor binding to dectin-1 on keratinocytes activates tgf-beta1, the key pro-collagen cytokine, stimulating fibroblast collagen production. this makes beta-glucan one of the few non-retinoid, non-peptide ingredients with direct receptor-mediated collagen stimulation.

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Restores sc lamellar lipid bilayers, reduces trans-epidermal water loss, repairs barrier dysfunction in dry and eczematous skin, and strengthens the physical barrier against environmental irritants.

Why It's Used: Provides direct structural barrier lipid replacement — unlike humectants that attract water, ceramides physically rebuild the lipid bilayer architecture required to retain moisture within the skin.

How It Works: Ceramides integrate into the sc intercellular lamellar bilayer, restoring the ordered orthorhombic packing disrupted in barrier-compromised skin. the sphingosine backbone's amide bond and hydroxyl groups form the h-bonding network that stabilises the lamellar structure.

Typically Found In: Barrier repair,dry skin,eczema-prone

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Functional ingredient – emollient

Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 0.01%–5%

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Conditional

Halal Status: Yes

Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low

Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 – low; formulation-dependent

Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.

Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier

Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Sc ceramides comprise ~50% of the sc lipid mass (by weight) and are essential for barrier function; ceramide depletion in atopic dermatitis and aged skin is a primary driver of barrier dysfunction and tewl elevation.

DESCRIPTION

What It Does: Glycerin pulls water from the environment and deeper skin layers into the outer skin layer (epidermis), boosting moisture levels and keeping skin soft, smooth, and plump.

Why It's Used: It is used in virtually every moisturizer, serum, and cleanser because it is highly effective at hydrating skin, is well-tolerated by all skin types, and enhances the texture and spreadability of formulations.

How It Works: As a humectant, glycerin forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules, trapping them in the skin. it also reinforces the skin barrier by integrating into lipid structures between skin cells.

Typically Found In: Moisturizers,serums,cleansers,toners,sheet masks,sunscreens,body lotions,shampoos,conditioners

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Primary Category: Humectant

Secondary Functions: Skin barrier support,emollient,solvent

Application Areas:

Facial Skincare

Body Care

Hair Care

Beard Care

Color Cosmetics (Makeup)

Dietary/Oral Supplements

Typical Concentration Range: 1%–30% (typical: 3–10%)

SOURCING & ETHICS

Vegan Status: Yes – plant-derived (coconut, soy, palm) or synthetic

Halal Status: Yes – when plant-derived or synthetic; verify source with supplier

Source Notes: Derived from plant oils via hydrolysis or saponification; synthetic versions also available. palm-derived glycerin carries sustainability concerns.

SKIN COMPATIBILITY

Irritancy Rating: 1/5 – very low; non-irritating at all standard concentrations

Comedogenicity Rating: 0/5 – non-comedogenic

Sensitivity Concerns: Extremely rare allergic reactions; generally safe for all skin types including sensitive and baby skin

Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY

Safety Profile: Widely recognized as safe. ewg hazard score: 1. no significant concerns for irritation, sensitization, or toxicity at typical concentrations (up to 50%).

Works Well With: Hyaluronic acid,ceramides,niacinamide,panthenol,urea,peptides,retinol,ahas/bhas

Avoid Combining With: No known incompatibilities at standard concentrations

SCIENTIFIC NOTE

Glycerin is an endogenous skin component found naturally in the stratum corneum. aquaporin-3 channels in keratinocytes facilitate glycerin transport, making it integral to natural skin hydration pathways.
