Collistar Deep Moisturising Fluid Body

Based on the ingredients included, "Collistar - Deep Moisturising Fluid Body" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Collistar - Deep Moisturising Fluid Body ticks this box. Urea, fructose, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate and sodium lactate 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 (isopropyl myristate, triticum vulgare germ oil, cera alba, c12-15 alkyl benzoate and cetearyl alcohol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

• this moisturizer includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl palmitate 0.25% - 0.50%, but this type of vitamin A is not very effective. It could in theory help with fine lines and wrinkles, but the effect is most likely minimal.
