What is Hexamidine?
The Uses of Hexamidine
hexamidine is generally used as a biocide and preservative. Some initial studies are indicating a potential to increase production of skin lipids, such as cholesterol, sphingolipids, and fatty acids. In turn this would help improve skin moisture content. Further evidence of this may be required.
