Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Embryolisse - Rich Cream Milk for the Body" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Embryolisse - Rich Cream Milk for the Body ticks this box. Humectants in this product (caprylyl 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). Emollients in this formulation (paraffinum liquidum, butyrospermum parkii butter, squalane, c13-14 isoparaffin and caprylyl glycol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
