Product Summary
Based on the ingredients included, "Drunk Elephant - Mini Lala Retro Whipped Moisturizer with Ceramides" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Drunk Elephant - Mini Lala Retro Whipped Moisturizer with Ceramides ticks this box. Glycerin, pseudozyma epicola/camellia sinensis seed oil/glucose/malt extract/soybean flour/yeast extract ferment filtrate, sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer and caprylyl glycol 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 eop, ceramide np, phytosphingosine, cholesterol and passiflora edulis seed oil) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
Ingredient callouts
- Another benefit is that this moisturizer contain ceramides (phytosphingosine 0.15% - 0.60%, ceramide np 0.15% - 0.65%, ceramide eop 0.15% - 0.65% and ceramide ap 0.15% - 0.65%). 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.
