Key Benefits of AlumierMD Hydraclarite

 
These are the key benefits you can expect from using AlumierMD Hydraclarite:
 

🔵🔵 Perfect Moisturizer for Normal to Dry Skin

According to CreamScan analysis, AlumierMD Hydraclarite is intensely moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 8.4 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather humectant. It has a maximum humectancy of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Propanediol (est. ≈9.0%) and Butylene Glycol (est. ≈2.5%), and a high occlusivity of 6.8 out of 10, mainly due to the significant content of Caprylyl Methicone (est. ≈6.0%) and Dimethicone (est. ≈4.0%).

This type of moisturizer is ideal for people with normal skin who want intense hydration in a rich yet not overly thick formula. It combines a high concentration of humectants with a significant amount of occlusive ingredients to provide effective dual-action moisturizing.

The product’s occlusive profile suggests a texture that is rich and creamy but not overly thick, offering the potential to absorb into the skin without leaving a greasy afterfeel in most cases.

This product may also be a good choice for people with dry (but not very dry) skin for daily hydration, as it strikes a balance between significant moisturizing potential and a texture that is not too thick.

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

📌 Please note that this is not a complete list of benefits. We are in the process of enhancing our model to incorporate anti-pigmentation, exfoliation and anti-acne ratings.
