Mechanism of Action
This unique glyceride mixture works by forming a replenishing layer on the skin's surface, delivering vital fatty acids that fortify the skin's natural barrier. This action effectively resists trans-epidermal moisture loss, ensuring deep nourishment and promoting a supple, healthy skin condition.
