“Comfort and relieve sensitive skin with the DECLÉOR Organic Harmonie Calm Soothing Comfort 2in 1 Cream & Mask , a 100% natural moisturiser and face mask formulated for red, irritated skin.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
arginine, glycerin.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: arginine, beeswax.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: madecassoside
Evens skin tone2 ingredients credited for this claimLimited support
“Powered by soothing organic ingredients, including Rose essential oil, Sweet Almond Plant Oils and Centella Asiatica, the nourishing, non-sticky emulsion effectively soothes and evens the appearance of skin tone to leave the complexion feeling smooth and less reactive.”
This product might help improve the skin tone through exfoliation. In other words, it helps to speed up the shedding of cells from the upper layer of the skin, and this might help reduce hyperpigmentation.
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · 5 ingredients credited for this claimStrong support
This product contains antioxidants (madecassoside) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
Anti-blemishNot advertised by the brand · 1 ingredient credited for this claimStrong support
This product can help reduce breakouts and clogged pores because it contains the following ingredient: salicylic acid. This ingredient is used for treating acne and can have a noticeable effect.
ExfoliationNot advertised by the brand · 1 ingredient credited for this claimStrong support
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: salicylic acid.
Anti-agingNot advertised by the brand · 3 ingredients credited for this claimModerate support
This product contains madecassoside. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

Product summary
"DECLEOR - Organic Harmonie Calm Soothing Comfort 2 in 1 Cream & Mask" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. DECLEOR - Organic Harmonie Calm Soothing Comfort 2 in 1 Cream & Mask ticks this box. Humectants in this product (arginine, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate and rosa damascena flower water) 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). Arginine, beeswax, cera alba, helianthus annuus seed oil and prunus amygdalus dulcis oil 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.
