Product summary

Based on the ingredient list, "APIVITA - BEE RADIANT Signs of Aging and Anti-fatigue Gel-Cream Light Texture" can work well for skin moisturization. This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Humectants in this product (panthenol, glycerin, glyceryl glucoside, glycogen and sodium hyaluronate) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Emollients in this formulation (helianthus annuus seed oil, heptyl undecylenate and hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts

  • An effective concentration of Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 1.00% - 1.20%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: lecithin, vitamin e and allantoin
