Allantoin

Natural active ingredient with regenerating & protecting effect.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classified Allantoin as a category I (safe and effective) skin protectant.
The value of Allantoin as a cosmetic ingredient has been further supported by in vitro and in vivo tests, although its mode of action is still not fully understood.
Allantoin has been widely used for decades in cosmetic and OTC topical formulations because it is so effective at only 0.3%, making it an economical anti-inflammatory additive.
