Dr. Hauschka Regenerating Day Cream Intensive

Judging from the ingredient list, "Dr. Hauschka - Regenerating Day Cream Intensive" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Dr. Hauschka - Regenerating Day Cream Intensive ticks this box. Glycerin 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 (ceramide np, persea gratissima oil, theobroma cacao seed butter, chondrus crispus extract and cocos nucifera oil) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
