Product summary

"Natio - Skin Renewal Ceramide Line & Wrinkle Cream" has a good moisturizing formula. The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Humectants in this product (glycerin, sodium hyaluronate and caprylyl glycol) 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). Emollients in this formulation (caprooyl phytosphingosine, ceramide eop, ceramide np, ceramide ns and argania spinosa kernel oil) 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

  • As a plus, this moisturizer also contains Ceramides (ceramide ns 0.60% - 0.95%, ceramide np 0.75% - 1.15%, ceramide eos 0.50% - 0.80%, ceramide eop 0.50% - 0.80%, ceramide ap 0.45% - 0.65%, caprooyl sphingosine 0.35% - 0.65% and caprooyl phytosphingosine 0.45% - 0.70%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: sodium ascorbyl phosphate
