Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Estée Lauder - Moisturiser Nightwear Plus Anti-Oxidant Night Detox Creme" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Estée Lauder - Moisturiser Nightwear Plus Anti-Oxidant Night Detox Creme ticks this box. Humectants in this product (urea, algae extract, artemia extract, glycerin and saccharomyces lysate extract) 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 (algae extract, cholesterol, butyrospermum parkii butter, dimethicone and dimethiconol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, caprylic/capric triglyceride, stearic acid, dipentaerythrityl hexacaprylate/hexacaprate, ergothioneine, lecithin, linoleic acid and laminaria saccharina extract
