Product summary

Based on the ingredients included, "Miller Harris - Tea Tonique Body Lotion" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Miller Harris - Tea Tonique Body Lotion ticks this box. Panthenol and glycerin 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 (butyrospermum parkii butter, hydrogenated ethylhexyl olivate, hydrogenated olive oil unsaponifiables, arachidyl alcohol and behenyl alcohol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
