Benefits

  • Skin Types: Very Dry to Dry, Dry Combination.
  • Concern: Dehydration, dry skin.
  • Moisture Surge Intense 72H Hydrator Moisturizer is a rich cream-gel face moisturizer that delivers an instant moisture boost, then keeps skin continuously hydrated for 72 hours.
  • If you’re looking for a cream for dry skin, this intensely hydrating formula with activated aloe water and caffeine sets nonstop hydration into motion. Then locks it in with a trio of lipids, strengthening skin's barrier to keep moisture in and help keep aggressors out.
  • Formulated with cica, it helps soothe and comfort dry or dehydrated skin.
  • Leaves skin plump, glowing, and velvety-smooth.
  • Dermatologist tested. Allergy tested. 100% fragrance free.

Key Ingredients

  • Activated aloe water: Water is infused with aloe leaf extract to help deliver intense hydration.
  • Cica: Also known as tiger grass, cica is a centuries-old ingredient traditionally used in Chinese medicine for its healing properties. Helps soothe dry, delicate skin.
  • Auto-Replenishing Lipid-Filler Technology: Using activated aloe water and caffeine, this technology helps trigger skin's internal water source so skin can continuously hydrate itself. Uses three types of lipids to reinforce and strengthen skin's barrier, helping lock in and retain moisture.
