Neurocosmetics

Did you know that mind and skin are mutually connected that can result in real, long-term beauty care? It is true that your mind and skin share a deep link. A holistic approach to skin, mind and body through a sensory journey translates to a new concept known as neurocosmetics.

Neurocosmetics, or the cosmetics of happiness, is capable of connecting the senses with the central nervous system, while effectively combating skin blemishes and enhancing moods. It is well known that skin and spirit, mind and skin are connected, but in fact they are connected by a single sheet of cells known as the ectoderm.

The skin and brain develop in the fetus from the same stem cells, but their differentiation stems from the same embryonic sheet; the ectoderm. Neurocosmetic products are formulated with active ingredients that share structural similarities with substances produced by the human body. The active ingredients found in these products aim to improve appearances and reduce blemishes.

Based on neuroscience studies, neurocosmetics examines how to unlock emotions through the usage of cosmetic products. For example, night creams contain ingredients that can improve sleep quality, and, therefore work as mood enhancers. Active ingredients play an important part in this study and help contribute to improving moods, connecting mind and skin.
