Product summary

Based on the ingredient list, "Haruharu - Honey Green Brilliant Cream TUBE TYPE" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Haruharu - Honey Green Brilliant Cream TUBE TYPE ticks this box. Glycerin, hyaluronic acid, lactobacillus ferment, honey 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 (glycine soja sterols, helianthus annuus seed oil, diheptyl succinate, c12-16 alcohols and caprylyl glycol) 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

  • We particularly like that there is a good concentration of Niacinamide (1.60% - 2.00%) in this moisturizer. Niacinamide is a well-studied multi-tasking active. It is a great ingredient to have in a moisturizer. It is stable, and can work well in almost any hydrating formulation. There is solid evidence that Niacinamide can help support skin barrier, regulate oil production and reduce acne and clogged pores. It also helps to fight photodamage and help improve the skin tone, reducing pigmentation marks.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: vitamin e and jojoba oil
