"Embryolisse - Lait Crème Fluid" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Embryolisse - Lait Crème Fluid ticks this box. Caprylyl glycol and propylene 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 (paraffinum liquidum, beeswax, butyrospermum parkii butter, cera alba and cetyl palmitate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
