As a result, the metabolism in skin cells improves, blood circulation is stimulated, irritation and inflammation are reduced, wrinkles are smoothed out, the aging process of the skin is slowed down, which acquires a young, fresh and healthy look. It has a therapeutic effect in skin diseases: psoriasis, eczema, diathesis, neurodermatitis.
