Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "THE LAB by blanc doux - Green Flavonoid 3.0 Cream" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. THE LAB by blanc doux - Green Flavonoid 3.0 Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol, fructooligosaccharides, fructose, glycerin and glyceryl acrylate/acrylic acid copolymer) 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 (squalane, glycine soja seed extract, cetyl ethylhexanoate, dicaprylyl ether and glyceryl stearate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
