DerMaxil 75g Moisturiser Bar

Glycerine and Mineral Oil Soap work through a combination of cleansing and moisturizing mechanisms. Glycerine, a humectant, attracts and retains moisture on the skin by forming a protective layer. It helps to hydrate the skin by drawing water from the deeper layers of the skin to the surface, thereby improving skin barrier function. Mineral oil, on the other hand, is an occlusive agent that creates a hydrophobic barrier on the skin's surface, preventing water loss through the epidermis. This dual action of glycerine and mineral oil helps to cleanse the skin by removing dirt and impurities while also locking in moisture, thus maintaining skin hydration and promoting a healthy skin barrier. The soap's mechanism effectively balances the skin's natural moisture levels, making it suitable for various skin types, especially dry and sensitive skin.
