Pharmacological properties
All products of the Emolium series contain special cosmetic ingredients - emollients, which are cosmetic products that combine effective antioxidant, moisturizing and regenerating ingredients, mainly of natural origin. They are intended for complex care of dry and damaged skin of the body formed as a result of aggressive environmental influences or against the background of chronic skin diseases. Regular use of emollients replenishes the missing components in the skin and ensures the prevention of seasonal problems such as dryness, chapping and severe flaking, prolongs the period of remission in chronic pathologies, including psoriasis, atopic or seborrheic dermatitis.
The basic Emolium series is designed for daily care of dry and sensitive skin, it includes the following products:
- body cream and emulsion: provide hydration of the superficial and deep layers of the epidermis, restore the protective lipid layer of the skin;
- bathing emulsion: allows you to gently cleanse dry and sensitive skin of children and adults by softening hard water. The specially selected formula, rich in lipid components, helps to saturate the skin with intercellular lipids, which are necessary to create a protective layer on the surface that prevents moisture evaporation from the epidermis;
- creamy wash gel: designed to effectively and gently cleanse dry and sensitive skin of children and adults and provide additional moisture. Gentle washing does not destroy the protective lipid layer and disrupt the natural acid balance of the skin. The gel does not contain soap, does not dry out or irritate the skin.
For the care of especially dry skin, which is prone to irritation and itching, a special series of emollients has been created. During periods of exacerbation of chronic skin diseases or seasonal dryness caused by prolonged exposure to the sun, it is required to use emollients with an increased concentration of active ingredients, in comparison with the base series. Care for especially dry and irritated skin, including during periods of exacerbation of chronic skin diseases (atopic and seborrheic dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, ichthyosis), must be performed using the following emollients of the special Emolium series:
- special cream and special emulsion for the body: both emollients are intended for the comprehensive care of dry, irritated and damaged skin in children and adults. Application provides intensive hydration, nourishment and softening of the skin, relieves itching and irritation. Abundant saturation of the skin with intercellular lipids helps to restore its structure;
- moisturizing shampoo: used to gently and effectively cleanse the scalp and hair in children and adults. The special formula of the shampoo allows you to maintain a protective lipid layer during the care process and not cause excessive secretion of the sebaceous glands. Reduces irritation and moisturizes the scalp without disturbing the natural acid balance;
- dry scalp emulsion: provides comprehensive care for dry and inflamed scalp for children and adults. It nourishes the skin by restoring its natural moisture, reduces inflammation, and promotes healing of damage.
The Triactive Emolium series is designed to care, effectively moisturize and nourish very dry, atopic and damaged skin. Its use is recommended during periods of exacerbation of atopic dermatitis and other dermatological diseases, including in combination with hormonal ointments. The composition of emollients includes components that have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects.
Triactive series emollients have the following properties:
- triactive cream: thanks to a special formula that includes unique natural ingredients with antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effect, applying the cream provides very dry skin with long-term hydration and nutrition, restoration of the protective water-lipid layer and potentiation of regeneration processes;
- Triactive bath emulsion: softens hard water to gently cleanse inflamed, very dry and atopic skin of children and adults. The abundance of lipid components helps to saturate the skin with intercellular lipids and create a surface protective layer.

- sodium hyaluronate: hyaluronic acid salt helps to retain moisture in the epidermis;
- urea: is a component of the natural moisturizing factor of the skin, provides deep layers of the epidermis with intense hydration;
- Shea butter and macadamia nut oil: natural ingredients that help restore the protective lipid film. Soften and protect the skin from excess moisture loss, give it elasticity;
- triglycerides of caprylic and capric acids: triglycerides of fatty acids compensate for the deficiency of intercellular lipids in the epidermis, limit the loss of water from the inner layers of the skin;
- Arlasilk Phospholipid GLA: is a natural extract of borage, contains a large amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), flavonoids and mineral salts. Has unique properties - softening and nourishing the skin, limits moisture loss, reduces the severity of inflammation and itching;
- paraffin oil: a mixture of solid saturated hydrocarbons, contributes to the saturation of the skin with fatty components, regenerates the water-lipid layer. By creating a protective layer on the skin surface, it prevents water loss. Has a softening, moisturizing effect, smoothes the epidermis;
- panthenol (vitamin B 5): ensures proper cellular metabolism. It is well absorbed into the epidermis and, penetrating into the deep layers of the dermis, helps to restore the processes of regeneration of their cells. It potentiates the synthesis of proteins and lipids, accelerates the healing process of the skin. Eases irritation and discomfort that accompany allergic skin changes;
