Product summary

Based on the ingredients included, "FRUDIA - Buy Frudia My Orchard Hand Cream Australia - Korean Beauty Skin Care" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. FRUDIA - Buy Frudia My Orchard Hand Cream Australia - Korean Beauty Skin Care ticks this box. Erythritol, glycerin, honey extract, butylene glycol and caprylyl glycol 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 (paraffinum liquidum, solanum lycopersicum seed oil, vitis vinifera seed oil, dimethicone and squalane) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
