Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

Pharmacodynamics

The cosmetic drug Lokobase Ripea has an optimal composition for quickly moisturizing and restoring the skin after dermatological diseases (for example, atopic dermatitis ). It has a high content of 3 types of lipids (free fatty acids, ceramide III and cholesterol ), identical to skin lipids. These lipids are contained in a physiological ratio of 1:1:1. Their content reaches 63%, and the drug itself has the form of an emulsion, which most fully meets the task of caring for dry skin.

Paraffins included in the composition form a film on the surface of the skin and reduce water loss. Glycerin , as a hygroscopic hydrant, retains water in the stratum corneum, moisturizes and softens.

A unique production technology (paraffin nanoparticles) ensures the transfer of lipids into the deep layers of the epidermis, replacing the missing lipids in the affected skin and using them to resynthesize its own lipids.

The cream acts immediately after application, and by creating a protective film, it reduces moisture evaporation - this is the first stage of restoring skin function. Next, the lipids penetrate the stratum corneum and replace the missing lipids and retain moisture for a long time (up to 6 hours). Then, in deeper layers, they are embedded in lamellar bodies, which provides a moisturizing effect for 24 hours, so this product can be used once a day.

In general, there is a dual effect: rehydrating (reduces water loss) and relipidizing (replenishes lipid deficiency). The absence of preservatives and dyes minimizes the risk of allergic reactions.

Cream Locobase Ripea, reviews

For chronic eczema , atopic dermatitis with severe dryness and hyperkeratosis, it is recommended to use lipocream or fatty ointment, which, due to the lipid content, provide skin hydration. They have a softening and calming effect and are called emollients . This cosmetic product also belongs to them.

Its effectiveness has been proven for atopic dermatitis . Inclusion in complex treatment significantly increases the effectiveness of primary therapy (glucocorticosteroids) in adults and children with persistent, relapsing disease.

Reviews of Locobase Ripea are mostly from patients suffering from dermatological diseases. They evaluate its effectiveness differently, but all note the rather small volume at a high price, as well as difficulties with application. Most consumers consider it a medicinal product, and not a cosmetic one.

• “... The dermatologist advised to use it for dermatitis - after using medicinal ointments, the skin becomes very dry and thin. Now he helps me out."
• “... Recommended by an allergist after treatment of allergic dermatitis, when itching and flaking remained. I used it just once a day and it provided good hydration.”
• “... I am saved only by it (I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis, my skin is very dry and flaky), it helps well both in winter and in summer.”
• “... Absorbs quickly enough, leaves an oily sheen, which then disappears.”
• “... I used it on my face and didn’t like it - it left a greasy sheen and a shell-like feeling.”
• “... My skin suffers in cold weather and strong winds. I am very pleased with this cream. Removed inflammation and flaking in just a week.”

• “... If you use it for a long time, the skin gets used to it and the effectiveness decreases.”

Review from a cosmetologist

Locobase ripea cream deserves attention. Its unique composition allows the skin to recover in the shortest possible time. It is absolutely not felt on the skin. Equally effective for young and aging skin. Light texture ensures quick absorption. The cream begins to act actively after 5 minutes of application. I recommend it to my clients with dry, irritated skin as a daily care product. Suitable as a base for makeup. Equally effectively protects from sunlight, frost and wind. The composition contains no aggressive components, dyes, or fragrances. A worthy product from Italian manufacturers.
