Description
Hydromol Cream is a light and gentle moisturiser that helps to smooth the surface of the skin by sealing in moisture. Its unique formulation contains sodium pyrrolidone carboxylate, a humectant that attracts water from both within the lower layers of the skin and from the atmosphere when humidity is high. This helps to increase the water content in the upper layers of the skin, restoring its natural hydration properties.
When applied to the skin, Hydromol Cream is easily absorbed, helping to soften dry skin and eczema. Its non-fragranced formula can be applied as often as needed throughout the day.
Hydromol Cream is effective for use on any condition in which dry skin is a feature, such as eczema, ichthyosis, psoriasis and xerosis. Its humectant properties work to moisturize the skin from the inside while its oil-based layer helps to lock in the moisture.
Key Benefits of Hydromol Cream:
- Easily absorbed
- Softens and moisturises dry skin conditions
- Soothens dry, itchy, or scaly skin
- Unfragranced
- Improving the overall health and appearance of the skin
