Curel Intensive Moisturiser Face Cream for Dry, Sensitive Skin, 40g

Product Information

Founded by Charlotte Cho (of Soko Glam), the product has been available in the US for some time now, garnering a cult following, so we're very excited that it has launched in the UK. PROTECT CERAMIDES: This face cream for dry, sensitive skin helps replenish ceramides, an important component of the of the skin's natural moisture barrier.

The ceramide functioning ingredient and eucalyptus extract penetrate deep into the stratum corneum repairing damaged skin barrier which can be the cause of sensitive skin.I didn’t expect to fall in love with a cleansing balm in the way that I did," said Caroline, who praised the seaberry and persimmo cleanser as "brilliantly moisturising, nourishing," and claims it "destroys makeup". Caroline's skincare, adult acne, retinol and double cleansing 'cheat sheets' are like a bible for beauty enthusiasts, and her non-nonsense attitude when it comes to the effectiveness of products or brands has won her a legion of fiercely loyal fans. So when she recommends a product, it’s definitely worth investigating — like the K-Beauty brand cleanser she's previously hailed her "product of the year." She added that it’s safe for acne-prone skin and that she could find "nothing wrong with it" — high praise indeed. The eucalyptus extract is reported by the manufacturer KAO as being able to boost the skin's production of ceramides.

What it is: A moisture cream that leaves skin soft and fully moisturised by replenishing ceramides for optimal moisture. I've been using this for 3 1/2 weeks, which I think is pretty much long enough for a moisturiser. I patch-tested this first as well.

Apply after Facial Lotion Enrich. Smooth softly across the face, starting at the centre and moving outward. Ingredients This is definitely a HG product for me - I'm not sure what other moisturisers could top this, but maybe I'll try some more one day.

It contains a pseudoceramide ( Cetyl-PG Hydroxyethyl Palmitamide), which tbh I trust more than improperly formulated ceramides, as well as allantoin, a great soothing ingredient at a concentration of 0.5%. Squalane and tocopherol as well as the classic humectant glycerin are also included. This does contain silicones, which is something to be mindful of, however my skin really enjoys the texture of silicone-containing products and the smoothing effect.It does contain eucalyptus extract, which could contain some fragrant components, however it is low down on the ingredients list - just something to be aware of if you have very sensitive skin and tend to avoid all fragrant extracts and hydrosols.
