Skintech Vit. E Anti-Oxydant Cream

Based on the ingredients included, "Skintech - Vit. E Anti-Oxydant Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Skintech - Vit. E Anti-Oxydant Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (urea, alanine, aspartic acid, biosaccharide gum-1 and fructose) 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 3, caprylic/capric triglyceride, dimethicone, squalane and c13-14 isoparaffin) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
