ROVECTIN Skin Essentials Barrier Repair Face & Body Cream

Based on the ingredients included, "ROVECTIN - Skin Essentials Barrier Repair Face & Body Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. ROVECTIN - Skin Essentials Barrier Repair Face & Body Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol, glycerin, butylene glycol 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 (ceramide np, limnanthes alba seed oil, hydrogenated poly (c6-14 olefin), hydrogenated vegetable oil and caprylyl glycol) 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
