Bioderma Duo Atoderm Intensive Balm

Judging from the ingredient list, "Bioderma - Duo Atoderm Intensive Balm" works well for improving skin hydration The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Fructooligosaccharides, glycerin, mannitol, rhamnose and caprylyl glycol 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). Ceramide eop, ceramide np, phytosphingosine, paraffinum liquidum and beta-sitosterol 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.

Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants.
