Product Description
Ingredients: Allantoin
INCI: Allantoin
Allantoin is a naturally-occurring chemical compound found in many plants such as comfrey, horse chestnut, and bearberry. Additionally, some mammals excrete allantoin. While manufacturers can extract allantoin from plants, they prefer making it from urea and glyoxylic acid. It is compatible with most ingredients used in personal care formulations. Commonly used as a protecting agent that helps with dry skin by sealing in moisture. Allantoin can be used in products formulated for daily use, suitable for day and night products.
