Flora & Curl Sweet Hibiscus Twist and Braid Cream

"Flora & Curl - Sweet Hibiscus Twist and Braid Cream" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Flora & Curl - Sweet Hibiscus Twist and Braid Cream ticks this box. Panthenol, hydrolyzed rice protein and aloe barbadensis leaf juice in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (theobroma cacao seed butter, ricinus communis seed oil and cetearyl alcohol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts
