WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

It can be helpful for moisturization, but will not get the job done on its own. Can soften skin and might help reduce water loss over time, but is missing ingredients that attract water to the skin (like glycerin or hyaluronic acid)

3 cera microcristallina/cire microcristalline Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin, reduce water loss from its surface and create a thicker product consistency

8 isopropyl palmitate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a thicker product consistency
