Product summary
Judging from the ingredient list, "MEDI-PEEL - Derma Maison Maricell Tox Oil" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. MEDI-PEEL - Derma Maison Maricell Tox Oil ticks this box. Hypnea musciformis extract and butylene 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, helianthus annuus seed oil, simmondsia chinensis seed oil and macadamia ternifolia seed oil) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
