Etude House Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Sleeping Pack

Based on the ingredient list, "Etude House - Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Sleeping Pack" can work well for skin moisturization. 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 (panthenol, glycerin, trehalose and butylene 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). Copernicia cerifera wax, squalane, cetearyl alcohol, copernicia cerifera cera and dicaprylyl carbonate 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.
