PYUNKANG YUL Calming Moisture Nourishing Cream in Australia - Korean Health and Beauty

Based on the ingredient list, "PYUNKANG YUL - Calming Moisture Nourishing Cream in Australia - Korean Health and Beauty" can work well for skin moisturization. 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. Glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, sodium acetylated hyaluronate, sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer 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 (ceramide eop, ceramide np, ceramide ns, vinyl dimethicone and butyrospermum parkii butter) 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
