Moisturising

Moisturisation is the number one benefit that consumers from all around the globe expect from a skin care product. This doesn’t mean that moisturisation products all have to be the same. There are many ingredients available to help you differentiate your moisturising formulations, depending on the texture and the sensory you desire, from light water drop lotions to rich, thick creams.

Moisturisation is often a mandatory part of a daily beauty routine; so why not include some other value-added benefits to this step? Simplifying the beauty routine through the introduction of multi-benefit products is also a great opportunity to differentiate formulations, whilst meeting the needs of the consumer.
