“Phytoceutic La Miellée des Abeilles First Cream Organic 50ml is a face care based on honey, propolis and active vegetable water biocompatible with the skin.This cream is suitable for all skin types, at every seasons.In the heart of its formula Fermented honey combined with honey and propolis to maintain the balance of the skin microbiome.The combination of different moisturising and humectant components such as glycerin, of vegetable origin, associated with different sugars of vegetable origin that act in synergy.Its formula optimises the hydration mechanisms by reinforcing the natural barrier effect of the skin, and by optimising the water circulation and its reserves within the stratum corneum.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
anhydroxylitol, arginine.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: arginine, butyrospermum parkii butter.
