HYDROLIPID FILM: what is it? what is needed?   

The hydrolipidic film, which is distributed over the stratum corneum, is an emulsion made up of lipids ("fatty" substances) and water.

The lipids produced by the sebaceous glands (mainly triglycerides, waxy esters, squalene) make up the sebum and together with sweat and transepidermal water form a protective veil that covers the whole body.

​

The hydrolipidic film ensures the maintenance of pH and surface hydration to the stratum corneum. Thanks to its particular chemical composition, slightly acidic, it keeps the skin pH constant and neutralizes alkaline substances, preventing colonization by pathogenic microorganisms.
