Chantecaille Healing Emulsion

Based on the ingredient list, "Chantecaille - Healing Emulsion" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Chantecaille - Healing Emulsion ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol, glycerin, saccharide isomerate, sodium hyaluronate and peg-8) 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 (oenothera biennis oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, coco-caprylate/caprate and ppg-15 stearyl ether) 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

• This product also contains vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this moisturizer it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.20% - 0.40%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
