Nursem Caring Hand Cream Unfragranced CLEARANCE

Judging from the ingredient list, "Nursem - Caring Hand Cream Unfragranced CLEARANCE" works well for improving skin hydration This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Humectants in this product (panthenol, allantoin, glycerin, honey and mel) 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 (glycine soja oil, passiflora edulis seed oil, vitis vinifera seed oil, cetearyl alcohol and ethylhexyl palmitate) 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

• In addition, this moisturizer contains Allantoin (1.60% - 2.30%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
