> Immediate relief (within minutes):
-by stimulation of the production of relaxing neuromediators (b-endorphins)
- by inhibiting sensory communication of heat/burning/irritation/comfort between the epidermis and nerve endings, by modulating the level of activity of sensory receptors and messengers.
> Reducing inflammatory reactions (lowering the levels of inflammation mediators)
> Strengthening the skin's barrier function to lower the threshold of reactivity in the long term:
- by stimulating the processes of "keratinization" of the epidermal cells to form a more resistant and impermeable horny layer (improvement of the cellular cohesion)
-by restoring the intercellular cement made up of lipids
-by restoring the water retention capacity of the epidermis
>Reinforcement of natural defenses to prevent aggressions causing sensitivity/reactivity/irritation: anti oxidative stress action (antioxidant and anti-radical)
