EltaMD Skin Recovery Light Moisturizer 1.7 OZ

EltaMD Skin Recovery Light Moisturizer is the lightweight daily lotion in the Skin Recovery System. It runs on AAComplex, EltaMD's patented blend of three amino acids: taurine, arginine and glycine, which helps repair barrier damage, visibly reduce redness and raise hydration. Squalane guards against moisture loss, French sea water holds hydration and works against the effects of pollution, and coconut fruit extract supports elasticity in dehydrated skin.

Product Details

This is the moisturizer step, applied over face and neck after your serum. It is pH-balanced and finishes non-greasy, so makeup and sunscreen go over it without pilling. Sodium hyaluronate holds water at the surface and vitamin E works on free radicals. Suitable for all skin types, and made in particular for sensitive and acne-prone skin.
