Skincotton Deep Repair Protect Lotion

Based on the ingredient list, "Skincotton - Deep Repair Protect Lotion" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Skincotton - Deep Repair Protect Lotion ticks this box. Humectants in this product (betaine, glycerin, glyceryl glucoside, hydroxyethyl urea and honey) 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 eop, ceramide np, phytosphingosine, cholesterol and glyceryl caprylate) 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

• Another benefit is that this moisturizer contain ceramides (phytosphingosine 0.30% - 0.60%, ceramide ap 1.70% - 2.00%, ceramide np 2.00% - 2.50% and ceramide eop 2.40% - 3.00%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
