Formulation view Lipid-rich cream with five ceramides, cholesterol, and phytosterols to mimic barrier structure. Oil phase includes shea, meadowfoam, and jojoba oils. Aqueous phase contains hyaluronic acid and amino acids. Emulsified with cetearyl glucoside and glyceryl stearate. Adds retinyl palmitate and VC esters. Ideal for dry or compromised skin. Formulator note: Complete lipid complex is the highlight, effectively repairing the barrier; amino acids enhance hydration without excessive greasiness.
