Weakened Skin Strengthened via Barrier-boosting Active

Terlys' new youth-inspiring active helps to restore the skin, for use in products targeted at weakened, damaged, very dry or irritated skin, including aftershave and tattoo care.

Nixalin (INCI: Betulin) is based on Canadian white birch bark, and is rich in betulin, which helps to improve skin conditions. The sustainable ingredient can reportedly:

• Restore and protect skin barrier function;
• Provide regenerative action, including the synthesis of collagens IV and VII;
• Reduce chronic inflammation;
• Strengthen blood vessels to reduce rosacea and couperose;
• Soothe skin; and
• Enhance skin tone.

The preservative-free ingredient can be utilized in anti-aging and after-sun skin care, along with in cleansing oils and other restorative applications.

Nixalin launched at NYSCC Suppliers' Day, held in New York City May 7-8, 2019.
