Etude House Hand Bouquet Hand Cream 3 Types

Based on the ingredients included, "ETUDE - Hand Bouquet Hand Cream 3 Types" works well for moisturizing the skin. The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Humectants in this product (urea, glycerin, hydrolyzed collagen, honey and honey 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). Hydrolyzed collagen, butyrospermum parkii butter, dimethicone, dimethiconol and cetearyl alcohol in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.
