Foundations
General Mechanisms
A descriptive account of the principal physiological and sensory pathways through which the formulations are observed to act. Statements are presented as general mechanisms of interaction and are not intended as clinical claims.
M.01
Skin Barrier Reinforcement
Reinforcement of the stratum corneum and reduction of transepidermal water loss (TEWL), supporting the integrity of the cutaneous barrier and equilibrium of surface hydration.
M.02
Hair Cuticle Smoothing
Smoothing of the hair cuticle and follicular support, contributing to surface uniformity, light reflection characteristics, and the perceived condition of the fiber.
M.03
Somatic Tissue Hydration
Maintenance of hydration and elasticity within somatic tissues, modulating moisture retention pathways relevant to suppleness and mechanical resilience.
M.04
Olfactory Influence
Influence on sensory states through the olfactory pathway, limited strictly to descriptive sensory effects observed under standard conditions of exposure.
Note
Mechanisms described herein represent general modes of interaction consistent with available literature. Magnitude, duration, and individual response may vary in accordance with formulation, concentration, and conditions of use.
