Memebox Nooni Applecoco Lip Oil

Based on the ingredient list, "Memebox - Nooni Applecoco Lip Oil" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Memebox - Nooni Applecoco Lip Oil ticks this box. Humectants in this product (camellia sinensis seed oil, butylene glycol and monascus extract) 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). Palmitoyl tripeptide-1, argania spinosa kernel oil, camellia sinensis seed oil, glycine soja oil and hippophae rhamnoides oil 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.

Ingredient callouts

• This moisturizer also contains Peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.55%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that they are helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
