Emollient
What it is
An emollient derived from coconut oil and glycerin. It's a lightweight, non-greasy oil that helps to smooth skin and works as an antioxidant.
How it works
It functions as an emollient by creating a barrier on the skin's surface, which helps to reduce skin dryness by decreasing the loss of moisture. Its fatty acid content helps replenish the skin's surface and resist moisture loss.
