This hydrating body gel has a unique granita texture enabled by the association of SAFIC’ Care T CK 2 and SAFIC’ Care T XG Clear P. Velvesil E-gel PMF Emulsion gives this gel a smooth afterfeel. The addition of A-Leen® 5 as a solubilizer with preservative boosting effect enables to decrease the dosage of Nipaguard™ PE9010 while keeping its high preservative performance. The active ingredient NanoCacao relaxes and smooths the skin and Happybelle-PE brings intensive hydration to the skin. The neurocosmetic active TiMood™ adds to this formula a positive impact on emotional wellbeing for a cocooning selfcare experience.

The honey-like texture of this transparent serum is obtained through the use of SAFIC’ Care T A 80-400. Cekol® 2000 A acts as a texture enhancer with a unique sensorial profile. ElfaMoist® AC Humectant helps to provide longlasting moisturisation and MandarinClear HS brings clarity and shine from within. Nutecyl™ MB is a DNA protection peptide with an anti-glycation activity, while Defensyl™ MB is a skin strengthening peptide with antiinflammation properties.

This particular formula looks like an oily gel but it is in fact an oil-in-water emulsion, with a lot of internal oily phase (from 60 to 70%). It is possible to obtain such a high oil load thanks to Pellicer™ L-30 which has a gemini structure thus allowing it to emulsify up to 70% of oil. Instead of being white as a traditional emulsion, a high amount of glycerin allows this cream to be transparent thanks to the adjustment of the refractive indexes. When applied on the skin, this gel-like texture will transform into oil, and then into milk when rinsed under water, leaving a nourishing skin feel thanks to the benefits of Neossance™ Squalane.
