MoisturizingCarthamus tinctorius seed oil, Cucurbita pepo seed oil + 3 moreGood evidence
“A fast-absorbing, dry oil that can be used as an effective daily moisturizer, or in conjunction with your makeup routine.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: carthamus tinctorius seed oil, cucurbita pepo seed oil.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
