Formulation view This formula builds a moisturizing matrix with water, glycerin, and mineral oil, using triethanolamine and cetyl alcohol for emulsification. Carrot extract offers natural coloring and conditioning, while tocopheryl acetate and dimethicone enhance antioxidant protection and silkiness. Ideal for dry skin in winter. A formulator notes the paraben system balances occlusion with light esters, though mineral oil purity remains a key consideration.
