DECLEOR Neroli Bigarade Hydrating Gel Day Cream for Normal to Combination Skin

To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. DECLEOR - Neroli Bigarade Hydrating Gel Day Cream for Normal to Combination Skin ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin and sodium hyaluronate) 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 (isopropyl myristate, caprylic/capric triglyceride, dimethicone, dimethiconol and cetearyl ethylhexanoate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
