Nature has its own remarkable ways of protecting and nurturing life. Antibodies, the superheroes of the immune system, play a crucial role in defending our bodies against harmful pathogens. Interestingly, milk, especially colostrum, the first milk produced by mammals, contains antibody that acts like a mini-immune system. Let's delve into the world of antibodies from milk and explore their role in providing vital protection to newborns and being a power ingredient for skin care.
Maintaining healthy skin requires not only a skin care regimen that balances the skin microbiome, but also a sun exposure schedule that is tailored to the skin and microbiome. Just as UV radiation is essential for vitamin D production in the skin, but can also cause skin ageing and skin cancer, the right amount of UV is also essential for balancing the skin microbiome.
The Colostrum Hydrofluid was developed as a microbiome care with a special focus on people with eczema. Now, fortunately, the Hydrofluid has also found its way to people with rosacea. Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that causes recurrent episodes of skin redness, pustules and dilated veins, especially in women over 30.Recent scientific findings suggest that rosacea, like eczema, may also be linked to the skin's microbiome.
Why did I develop the Colostrum Hydrofluid? I have a sensitive skin that easily gets out of balance. But I do not want to be restricted in my activities because of my skin. That's why I've persistently pursued the goal of developing a skin care product over the years that makes my skin more resistant to environmental influences and does not let it lose its balance so easily. I am very happy with the final result. Now that the Hydrofluid has become the standard skin care in my family and circle of friends, I wanted to take the product out into the world and make it accessible to many people. The Hydrofluid is mainly used on eczematous skin, but also on stressed and inflamed skin caused by chemotherapy, on skin that does not heal well, on rosacea and under the face mask. I receive a lot of feedback from enthusiastic users who have used the Hydrofluid to get their skin problems under control.
As the COVID 19 pandemic unfortunately still has a firm grip on us, I would like to give you some insight into the special demands that are currently placed on our skin care.
Many people with skin problems who are currently testing our Colostrum Hydrofluid report that they use products based on mineral oil (Paraffinum liquidum, Paraffin, Microcristallina Wax Ceresin / Cera Microcristallina, Mineral Oil, Ozokerite or Petrolatum) for skin care. What is the function of mineral oils in cosmetics? Mineral oil forms an irritation-free basis for many cosmetic products that are well tolerated. However, they form a film on the skin that prevents moisture from evaporating from the skin. The cells of the epidermis swell and make the surface appear plumper and smoother. Small wrinkles disappear, the skin appears well moisturized and...
Why start your own cosmetic series when the shelves in the drugstore and pharmacy are full of the best products and brands? I, Beatrix Förster and founder of HOLIKO, have nevertheless decided to do so after decades of unsuccessful search for the right cosmetics for my sensitive skin and the eczema of my children. I have been making natural cosmetics for home use for around 30 years and can therefore provide our skin with the care it needs and keeps healthy. As a scientist, I have dealt increasingly intensively with the requirements for healthy skin and the importance of the...
