Getting in touch with your body is a daily exercise in curiosity and observation: How does your skin feel, and what does it need?
Ceramide Milky Essence is our answer to those days when your skin needs intense nourishment. (For some of us, that’s every day.) It delivers serious hydration, but it has a beautiful, lightweight consistency that glides on effortlessly and sinks in almost instantly. The result is your softest, healthiest-looking skin.
Ceramide Milky Essence Benefits
This essence boosts hydration and seals in moisture for soft, supple, healthier-looking skin. That near-immediate hydration soothes and plumps to approve the appearance of skin firmness. And the thinner consistency allows it to absorb more quickly than a traditional lotion—and means it never clings to clothes.
Our Advanced Ingredients
The star of the show here is, of course, a high-purity blend of ceramides that enhances skin barrier function. (Ceramides are a kind of lipids naturally present in your skin; they’re known for their capacity to retain moisture.) We packed in more nourishing actives to round out the formula:
HYDROXYETHYL UREA:
Water-retaining skin conditioner that boosts skin elasticity.
POLYGLUTAMIC ACID:
Humectant that attracts and holds water to boost hydration.
AMINO ACIDS:
Replenishes and retains optimal moisture levels.
SODIUM PCA:
Replenishes and retains optimal moisture levels.
SQUALANE:
Skin lipid barrier that softens and smooths.
How to Layer Ceramide Milky Essence
You can apply Ceramide Milky Essence alone, any time of day—it’s a quick step to nourished, hydrated skin. If your skin is extra dry or needs more intense moisture, layer a thicker lotion on top (like Nutrient-Rich Body Cream). The essence will act like a hydration boost underneath, enhancing the moisturizing benefits of the cream.
For added glow, layer our Vitamin C Body Oil on top: You’ll get all the skincare benefits of vitamin C and the oil will act as an occlusive layer, sealing the ceramide essence in.
If you use our Glycolic Acid Spray, mist all over—and wait 5 to 10 minutes (depending on your skin type) for the spray to dry before applying the essence.
