Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-22

What is this product?

A fragrance free soothing balm built on panthenol, allantoin, zinc oxide and four kinds of hyaluronate, aimed at irritated skin that wants an occlusive finish. It avoids fragrance, essential oils and drying alcohols, so it is an easy pick for sensitive skin.

What makes it different?

The formula pairs an emollient ester rich base with a hyaluronate cluster in the later half (Sodium Hyaluronate at 23, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid at 27, Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate at 28, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate at 31) plus ceramide-like amide ingredients at 21 and 32. It contains no fragrance, no essential oils and no drying alcohols, which is unusual for a balm texture. Concentrations and pH are not disclosed, so soothing strength cannot be quantified.
