These are the key benefits you can expect from using Lanoline Manuka Honey Eye Cream:
 

Perfect Moisturizer for Normal to Dry Skin with a Balanced Texture, Neither Too Light nor Too Heavy

According to CreamScan analysis, Lanoline Manuka Honey Eye Cream is highly moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 7.6 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more humectant. It has a very high humectancy of 9.8 out of 10, primarily due to the substantial concentration of Glycerin (est. ≈6.0%) and Honey (est. ≈2.5%), and a moderate occlusivity of 5.5 out of 10, entirely due to the significant content of Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil (est. ≈9.0%) and Stearic Acid (est. ≈2.0%).

This type of moisturizer is ideal for people with normal skin who want maximum hydration in a formula with a balanced texture - neither too light nor too heavy. It combines a high concentration of humectants with a significant amount of occlusive ingredients to deliver effective dual-action moisturizing for normal skin.

This product may also be a good choice for people with normal to dry skin for daily hydration, as it balances significant moisturizing potential with a balanced texture, neither too light nor too heavy.
