How To Moisturize Your Skin: A Review Of Advanced Nutrition, Babor And St Barth

Advanced Nutrition Program

The new biologically active complex of nutrients Skin Moisture Lock contains a unique formula of hyaluronic acid and phytoceramides. It works to moisturize, reduce wrinkles and improve the skin's texture, make it smoother, and also nourish and protect.

As a rule, it is rather difficult to combine hyaluronic acid and phytoceramides in one product due to their structure, but the specialists of the Advanced Nutrition Program succeeded. Ceramides are special lipid molecules that retain moisture and help strengthen the skin's natural protective barrier. The peculiarity of hyaluronic acid is that its molecules hold the volume of water up to 1000 times its own mass, which means that it fills the skin with moisture, reducing wrinkles and restoring elasticity. In most cases, manufacturers use hyaluronic acid of animal origin, but in the new Skin Moisture Lock it is obtained through the fermentation of peptides and mineral salts. In addition, the formula is free of gluten, dairy, yeast and artificial fragrances.therefore it is suitable for the vegan lifestyle. The packaging is made on a paper basis, and the drawings are applied with vegetable paints.

Babor

The German company has released a new set of Hydro Cellular Doctor Babor, consisting of serum and cream. It contains 3-fraction hyaluronic acid and HY-3 peptides, which regulate water balance. Together, they moisturize the skin both outside and inside, protect cells from moisture loss and stimulate the synthesis of hyaluronic acid. As a result, the skin tightens and becomes elastic, acquires an even tone. The brand's experts advise you to first apply a serum to cleansed skin (in the morning or in the evening), and after a few minutes the cream, with massage movements.

Serum and concentrate-based care in ampoules is becoming more and more popular. Babor has produced some of the most powerful tools in this format for years. For example, the Hydra Plus Concentrate Kit is the perfect solution to relieve dryness and tightness. Each ampoule contains 2 ml of hyaluronic acid-containing moisturizer. When the concentrate is applied, a thin matrix film is formed, which traps the moisture inside.

A big plus is that Hydra Plus is suitable for any skin type and any condition. Before use, shake the ampoule and insert it into the plastic opening tip (included in the kit), wrap the neck with a cloth and break it with a sharp movement along the colored ring. The product is applied to clean skin of the face, neck and décolleté with light pressing movements. The concentrate takes time to absorb. Then you can use the cream.

St barth

The super-moisturizing Mango Butter Cream contains mango oil, which serves as a source of beneficial minerals, plant enzymes and antioxidants. The aroma oil is cold pressed to maximize the health benefits of mango. To it are added nourishing avocado oil and calendula extract, which has anti-inflammatory and healing effects, as well as squalane and shea butter to soften and regenerate the skin. We did not forget about ceramides (the lipid component of the cell membrane), which protect against harmful UV radiation.

To give the cream a light airy texture, all ingredients are mixed using a special technology under high pressure. This allows Mango Butter Cream to penetrate into the deepest layers of the skin.

Aloe Vera with Mint gel for hair, face and body is a lifesaver for solving almost any problem: from flaking and itching to redness of the skin after sun exposure.

The gel is instantly absorbed, refreshes and cools.
