Cezanne Moisture Rich Essence Cream

Based on the ingredients included, "Cezanne - Moisture Rich Essence Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Cezanne - Moisture Rich Essence Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin, hydrolyzed collagen, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, hydrolyzed yeast extract and butylene glycol) 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). Hydrolyzed collagen, dimethicone, squalane, hydrogenated castor oil and cetyl ethylhexanoate 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.
