Overview

What it is

This product is a face cream formulated with ceramides derived from pineapples, intended to aid in maintaining the skin's moisture barrier. It is designed to support hydration and protect the skin from external elements.

Key ingredients and their functions

Glycerin - humectant
Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil - emollient
Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil - antioxidant
Ananas Sativus (Pineapple) Fruit Extract - natural source of ceramides
Ceramide NP - skin barrier support
Squalane - moisturizing agent
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil - conditioning agent
Olive Glycerides - emollient

How it works

This face cream appears to be designed to support skin hydration and reinforce the skin's natural barrier. Ceramides from pineapples aim to enhance the skin's structure, while glycerin acts as a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin. Sunflower seed oil and jojoba seed oil function as conditioning agents, helping to soften and smooth the skin. Grape seed oil provides antioxidant properties, potentially protecting the skin from environmental factors. Squalane may further boost moisture levels. These ingredients work together to maintain a hydrated and resilient skin barrier.

Lovely and revived

This cream feels lovely to apply and feels so hydrating, I've been using it at night and not feeling like it's clogging my skin at all and is leaving my skin feeling and look much more revived. I've also found my skin not feeling dried out in this cold weather either.

Ceramic Barrier defence face cream.

Have been using this for some time now I'm on my third pot so must be good. I apply this when I've removed my make up at night. It's creamy to touch and feels soft and easily applied with fingers. I massage it into my face and can instantly feel it working firming my skin and leaving it feeling hydrated. I must confess I also use it on the back of my hands, elbows and knees as it is very soothing as well as feeling hydrated. I like this product and will continue to use it

Lovely product

I love the texture of this product, it's just the right consistency - not too thin but not too thick either. It leaves my skin feeling really soft and moisturised too.

Great Product

I started using this product a few days ago and it has made my skin feel so soft, it quickly sinks into the skin and I only need to use a little.

Good barrier

I have used this cream recently to protect my face from irritation. It works really well for that. I don't think I would use this as an everyday face cream as I feel it hasn't got enough in it to improve my skin. But it is good as a barrier cream, probably day rather than night cream
