Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Andalou Naturals - 1000 Roses Fortifying Night Cream" works well for improving skin hydration As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Panthenol, glycerin, isomalt, hydrolyzed rice protein and aloe barbadensis leaf juice in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (helianthus annuus seed oil, myristyl myristate, squalane, cetyl palmitate and coco-caprylate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: titanium dioxide, lactic acid, lecithin, vitamin e, allantoin, rosehip oil, butyrospermum parkii butter and ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate
