Sodium anisate

Sodium anisate – Germany

Sodium anisate is an antimicrobial agent and preservative derived from star anise. Together with sodium levulinate, sodium anisate forms the preservative system in Djusie’s hand cream.

Sodium dehydroacetate

Sodium dehydroacetate – Switzerland

Sodium dehydroacetate is a skin-friendly, synthetically produced preservative approved for use in certified natural cosmetics.

Sodium levulinate

Sodium levulinate – Germany

Sodium levulinate is a skin-care agent and preservative made from sugar cane. Together with sodium anisate, sodium levulinate forms the preservative system in Djusie’s hand cream.

Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate

Sodium Stearoyl Glutamate – France

Sodium stearoyl glutamate is an emulsifier, i.e. a surfactant, which enables the water and oil in the moisturizer to mix. Plant-based sodium stearoyl glutamate is one of the emulsifying components used in Djusie’s moisturizer.

Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate

Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate – Great Britain

Sodium stearoyl lactylate is a surfactant and emulsifying agent used in cleansers and moisturizers. It helps water and oil to mix together and also acts as a cleanser. The plant-based sodium stearoyl lactylate used in Djusie’s products acts as a viscosity regulator, i.e. thickener, in the moisturizer. In addition, it improves the stability of the product, preventing the water and the oil from separating.

Squalane

Squalane – Spain/Italy

Squalane, of the squalene family, is found naturally in the skin or sebum. The squalane used by Djusie is a by-product of olive oil pressing. Squalane is very well absorbed into the skin due to the similarity of the squalene contained in sebum. It is thin in composition and feels silky and does not clog the pores. Squalane has antioxidant properties that prevent the skin’s own sebum from oxidising, thus preventing impurities and pore clogging. In addition, it balances the skin’s sebum secretions, promotes cell renewal, prevents and lightens scars and pigment spots on the skin, and protects the skin from the harmful effects of UV rays. Squalane is perfect for all skin types.
