This gentle and refillable face cream is a beloved classic from IRENE FORTE SKINCARE and improves hydration with its rich blend of vitamins, botanical oils, and effective ingredients. The active ingredients used were scientifically selected for their moisturizing, soothing, and protective properties, making it ideal for a moisture boost for sun-stressed, dehydrated skin.
Provitamin B5, hyaluronic acid, and aloe leaf gel increase skin hydration. Organic olive oil, avocado oil, and shea butter restore the skin’s natural barrier, preserving and protecting its moisture content. Antioxidant-rich olive oil fractions and vitamin E nourish and protect.
Jojoba Oil:
A wax ester similar in composition to the sebum naturally produced by the skin. 25 to 30% of human sebum is made up of wax esters. Jojoba oil moisturizes the skin through a unique dual action: It mixes with sebum to form a thin, non-greasy, semi-occlusive layer; it also penetrates the skin through pores and hair follicles, then diffuses into the intercellular spaces of the outer layer of the skin to soften and soothe it.
Aloe Leaf Gel:
A nutrient-rich gel extracted from the succulent leaves of aloe vera that deeply hydrates and soothes the skin.
Omega-rich oils (3, 6, and 9), including avocado oil, shea butter, and olive oil:
Omega fatty acids are a type of essential fatty acid (EFA) that our bodies need for good health but cannot produce on their own. Linoleic acid (omega-6), alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3), and oleic acid (omega-9) are particularly important for our skin; the latter is not considered an essential fatty acid because the body produces it in small amounts. Topical application of omega fatty acids helps strengthen and smooth the skin’s surface, repair the skin barrier to improve moisture and elasticity, soothe irritated, sensitive, and reddened skin, reduce UV-induced damage and signs of aging, nourish and protect the skin from environmental pollutants, moisturize, regulate oil production, and maintain skin elasticity.
Omega Star:
Avocado oil is ideal for dry skin because it penetrates particularly well and nourishes the different skin layers. This very rich, highly moisturizing and emollient oil smoothes and nourishes the skin.
Hyaluronic Acid:
Hyaluronic acid is a powerful humectant. It occurs naturally in the skin and can bind up to 1,000 times its weight in water, thereby improving moisture retention and skin hydration. It contributes to improving skin softness and smoothness.
