"Laboratoires de Biarritz - Organic Post-Tattoo Repair Cream" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Laboratoires de Biarritz - Organic Post-Tattoo Repair Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin and zinc pca) 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). Ceramide np, cocos nucifera oil, helianthus annuus seed oil, simmondsia chinensis seed oil and squalane 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.
