GfN-Selco Phytosterol Complex 95 % is derived from the lipophilic parts of plants, such as seeds, and functions as a structural component of the cell membrane, similar to cholesterol in human cells. In the skin, phytosterols are stored in the lipid bilayer, contributing to structure and stabilization. They act as natural emulsifiers, forming lipidic protective films on skin and hair, and have anti-irritant properties that reduce erythema and itching. This complex is designed to repair damaged skin and protect intact skin.
