“Dr. Hauschka Day Care Clarifying Day Oil is a fast-absorbing daily moisturiser that balances excessive oiliness, refines the appearance of pores and reduces the appearance of blemishes for a calm, beautiful complexion.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: helianthus annuus seed oil, prunus armeniaca kernel oil.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
