“Mes Essentiels 24H Light Face Moisturising Cream”
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:
glycerin, soluble collagen.
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: beeswax, cera alba.
“This light moisturizer , helps fight dry skin, loss of elasticity of the skin and feelings of tightness, , has a unique formula with marine collagen, a powerful moisturizing active ingredient, , contains organic silicon, a component naturally present in the skin, stimulating the production of collagen. Dermatologically tested. Made in France.”
