Allantoin is a common skin-soothing ingredient that is widely utilized in topical beauty products. Although it is not popular compared to other skin-calming ingredients, the benefits of Allantoin are still outstanding. Here is why!

a. Soothe Irritation And Redness.

Allantoin exhibits anti-inflammatory properties that help to soothe irritation and redness. It is a great ingredient to pair with other skin-brighteners because some brightening actives can be quite irritating especially for people with sensitive skin. For example, in order to reduce possible irritation from daily application of our Snowmeric Serum, our founder decided to incorporate Allantoin as a great fix for our sensitive-skin users. 

b. Promote Skin Healing. 

Allantoin is capable of fighting trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) as it has keratolytic action that retains moisture within skin cells for supple-looking skin. It works in a therapeutic action that induces epidermal-cell proliferation and promotes skin regeneration. By combining all the benefits together, Allantoin facilitates rapid healing to the skin and eventually strengthens the skin barrier. 

If you are constantly struggling with irritation, itchiness or even damaged skin barrier, do give Allantoin a try! Your skin will definitely thank you!
