Product summary

Based on the ingredient list, "The Saem - Perfumed Body Moisturizer - 3 Types" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. The Saem - Perfumed Body Moisturizer - 3 Types ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin, butylene glycol and propylene 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, paraffinum liquidum, vitis vinifera seed oil, dimethicone and helianthus annuus seed oil) 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 (ceramide np 0.25% - 0.45%). 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.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: lecithin, jojoba oil and petrolatum
