Soothing

Soothing the skin means combating the inflammation process. Skin is constantly under stress (UV, thermal shock, emotional stress …), therefore inducing pro-inflammatory signals.

Clinically, the deterioration of symptoms due to pain and/or burning is observed. These symptoms produce a feeling of discomfort, dryness, tightness, itching or swelling.

The soothing function thus becomes inseparable from all claims put forward by today's cosmetic products. Gattefossé has a variety of ingredients acting on several levels of the inflammatory response cascade.
