Properties of Cardiospermum halicacabum
Cardiospermum halicacabum (click link to learn more) is a tropical plant also known as a balloon plant or love in a puff. It is a climbing plant widely distributed in tropical and subtropical areas of Africa, Australia and North America. In traditional medicine it is known for its anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and soothing properties. In fact, the root of the plant was boiled with oil and applied to the head in order to treat throat infections and headaches.
In recent years, numerous studies have investigated the scientific value of the extract, demonstrating the potential of "Modakhaton" (this is the Indian name of the plant) in the localized treatment of dermatitis.
Cardiospermum halicacabum is considered a natural cortisone
A medical plant that has a similar effect to cortisone (cortison-like), but without the contraindications of the drug. The key advantage of this natural cortisone is its high safety and tolerability, even when used for a prolonged time. The extracts of the plant are used for topical use on patients suffering from psoriasis, neurodermatitis, allergic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis in acute, chronic or chronic relapsing diseases. Cardiospermum halicacabum has also given interesting results in the treatment of lichenizations.
Plant extracts can also be useful for soothing red skin, peeling skin, insect bites and treating diaper eczema.
In summary, as confirmed by clinical studies, the topical application of Cardiospermum halicacabum can provide a good anti-inflammatory activity but without the side effects of cortisone.
On Tocopherol Acetate (vitamin E) ...
Vitamin E and its esters possess a high antioxidant activity, as they are able to dampen the reactivity of free radicals, blocking the cascade of events that determine oxidative stress, which causes damage to cells. Furthermore, free radicals, which are formed by the action of UV rays, smoke or pollution, degrade the fatty acids present in the skin and alter the structure of collagen. In this way the skin loses elasticity and premature aging of the skin is witnessed with the formation of wrinkles.
In addition to protecting from UV rays, Tocopheryl Acetate keeps the skin smooth and soft, thanks to its contribution in limiting the loss of water from the epidermis and in preserving skin hydration. The use of Tocopheryl Acetate in cosmetics is considered safe.
In cosmetics, Tocopheryl Acetate is normally used in concentrations between 0.1 and 5%. Thanks to its antioxidant activity, it is included in cosmetic formulations not only as a protective agent for the skin against the action of free radicals, but also to prevent the degradation of the other components of the formulation itself.
Use of Dermatroficomplex
Just one application twice a day on the areas affected by injuries is enough.
This solution can offer physiological support to allergic and inflammatory manifestations also accompanied by itching. It can also help restore the integrity of the irritated skin barrier.
