Product summary
"Tofu Moritaya - Natural Life Red Soy Bean Milk Soap" is effective for: Moisturizing
Ingredient callouts
- This product contains acids (lactic acid 1.60% - 2.00%). Their concentration is low, and they will not have a strong exfoliating effect. Instead, they work to support the skin natural acid mantle and to attract water (as humectants). Lactic acid is particularly good in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin and improving the skin barrier.
- Ceramides (ceramide np 1.00% - 1.20% and ceramide ap 1.10% - 1.40%). 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.
- Humectants (soluble collagen 0.45% - 0.70%, sodium hyaluronate 0.50% - 0.70%, sucrose 1.90% - 2.30%, glycerin 4.10% - 5.00% and sucrose 8.30% - 10.10%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
