DRMTLGY Advanced Neck Cream

Based on the ingredients included, "DRMTLGY - Advanced Neck Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Humectants in this product (dextran, glycerin and butylene glycol) 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). Ceramide eop, ceramide np, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and phytosphingosine 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.

Ingredient callouts

• Another benefit is that this moisturizer contain ceramides (phytosphingosine 0.20% - 0.80%, ceramide np 22.00% - 33.00%, ceramide eop 5.10% - 7.70%, ceramide ap 4.40% - 6.60%, ceramide np 0.20% - 0.80%, ceramide eop 0.20% - 0.75% and ceramide ap 0.15% - 0.60%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
• We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (trifluoroacetyl tripeptide-2 2.80% - 4.20%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.20% - 0.75%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 1.70% - 2.60%, trifluoroacetyl tripeptide-2 0.15% - 0.60%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.15% - 0.60%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 3.90% - 5.90%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.20% - 0.80%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 2.20% - 3.30% and acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 0.10% - 0.45%). There are many different kind of peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of amino-acids. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective peptides in skincare are, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. Peptides might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
