Product summary

"BABOR - Men's Calming Face and Eye Cream" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. BABOR - Men's Calming Face and Eye Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol, glycerin, pantolactone, glycine soja protein and hydrolyzed rice protein) 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). Cannabis sativa seed oil, glycine soja oil, helianthus annuus seed oil, cetearyl alcohol and decyl oleate in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

Ingredient callouts

  • This formulation also includes panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 1.20% - 1.80% concentration. In this concentration, panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
