👉 Cosmetic ion, often referred to as cosmetic ions or cosmetic ions and molecules (CIMs), are small, charged particles derived from natural sources like minerals, plants, and marine organisms. These ions are used in skincare products to enhance the skin's appearance and health by targeting specific issues such as dryness, dullness, and fine lines. They work by penetrating the skin's surface, where they can stimulate collagen production, improve hydration, and boost the skin's natural barrier function. Unlike active ingredients that perform specific chemical reactions, cosmetic ions act through electrostatic interactions, making them gentle yet effective for a wide range of skin concerns. This non-invasive approach makes cosmetic ion treatments popular for their ability to provide visible results with minimal risk of irritation or adverse effects.
