Tole sem sicer napisal noter pri Pycnogenol Gelu, a se mi zdi da kar paše tudi sem:
Glicerin - Serves as an emollient, humectant, solvent, and lubricant in personal care products. V glavnem dobra zadeva za kožo.
Butylene glycol - a common humectant and solubilizer. There has been no documented organ-specific toxicity associated with it. Butanediol is also not a carcinogen.2 It is not a skin sensitizer, and is not considered a skin irritant.
Carbomer - a thickening agent. Although it can be used in any type of cosmetic product, it is very often found in gel-like formulas. There are no known side effects to this chemical compound.
Triethanolamine (TEA) - This ingredient is used as a pH balancer in cosmetic preparations. As with any amines, it may have the potential to create nitrosamines, but with the low concentrations used in cosmetic products the chances of that happening is very slim and it is further theorized that nitrosamines cannot penetrate the skin.
Allantoin - a botanical extract of the comfrey plant and is used for its healing, soothing, and anti-irritating properties. Allantoin helps to heal wounds and skin irritations and stimulate growth of healthy tissue.
Aloe Barbadensis - pozitivnih učinkov aloje je ogromno.
Pinus Maritima - torej izveček iz skorje bora Pinus maritima (Pycnogenol®), ki zgladi vidne gubice na koži in ji povrne elastičnost. Baje zelo močan AOK.
Panthenol (vitamin B5) - a humectant, emollient and moisturizer. It binds to hair follicles readily and is a frequent component of shampoos and hair conditioners (in concentrations of 0.1-1%). It coats the hair and seals its surface, lubricating follicles and making strands appear shiny.
Parabeni - konzervansi.
Tocopheryl Acetate - AOK, telo ga pretvori v vitamin E.
Sodium Hyaluronate - a natural biotic component, widely existing in skin and any other tissue. It has outstanding moisture keeping ability. It is the best component used in cosmetics for moisture keeping in the nature. When applied to the skin it can form an air permeable thin layer and keep the skin smooth and moist, and protect the skin from bacteria, dust, and ultraviolet ray. With low molecular ha penetrating into corium, it will slightly enlarge blood capillaries, speed circulation of blood, improve inter-mediary metabolism and nourishment absorbing ability of skin, thus eliminating wrinkles, increasing skin's elasticity and delaying its aging.
Moj cheap-healthy-cooking blog Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey Hammond: Well I can see that.
V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
