CODAGE Concentrated Body Milk Intense Moisturizing

"CODAGE - Concentrated Body Milk Intense Moisturizing" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. CODAGE - Concentrated Body Milk Intense Moisturizing ticks this box. Biosaccharide gum-1, erythritol, glycerin, polyglycerin-3 and sodium hyaluronate 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). Emollients in this formulation (linoleic acid, helianthus annuus seed wax, jojoba esters, linolenic acid and butyrospermum parkii butter) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
