Clarissa LavonIf you feel like you’re suddenly seeing ectoin EVERYWHERE in skincare and makeup… you’re not imagining it. 👀 Ectoin isn’t a new ingredient, but it’s becoming one of the hottest skincare ingredients right now. Glow Recipe, Remedy, Paula’s Choice, The INKEY List, Skinfix, Biossance and Allies of Skin are all formulating with ectoin, OVERLAPS has built an entire skincare lineup around it, and now SOSHE Beauty is even bringing ectoin into makeup with the Ectoin Multi-Use Concealer. So what is ectoin? 🧪 It’s a naturally occurring “survival molecule” produced by microorganisms that can live in extremely harsh environments. In skincare, ectoin is used for hydration, skin barrier support and helping skin stay resilient against environmental stress. 🧽 Hyaluronic acid = moisture sponge 🧱 Ceramides = barrier mortar 🫧 Ectoin = your little hydration-protecting bodyguard If ectoin isn’t already on your skincare vocabulary list, add it now. I have a feeling we’re going to be talking about this one A LOT. 👀 #Ectoin #EctoinSkincare #SkincareIngredients #SkincareScience #SkinBarrier
