Product summary

"Nivea Japan - Marshmallow Care Body Milk - 2 Types" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Nivea Japan - Marshmallow Care Body Milk - 2 Types ticks this box. Dipotassium glycyrrhizate, glycerin and sodium hyaluronate 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 (petrolatum, dimethicone, myristyl myristate, simmondsia chinensis seed oil and stearic acid) 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
