The Sostar Honey & Almond Cream is a creamy, rich face and neck moisturizer 50ml, with high almond oil content and honey extract. According to the manufacturer, it deeply hydrates, protects, nourishes and cares for the skin against dryness and harsh weather conditions.
Thanks to its oily formula, it helps the skin regain its elasticity. It is ideal for very dry and mature skin.
Honey and almond have been used in Mediterranean beauty recipes for thousands of years. In ancient Greece and Egypt, honey was mixed with milk or oils for face masks, while almonds provided a light, fragrant oil for the body.
Honey is a natural humectant: it attracts and retains moisture from the environment. This is the reason why honey extracts are used in cosmetics as moisturizing ingredients, leaving the skin surface softer and smoother.
Almond oil, on the other hand, is one of the mildest vegetable oils. It is rich in fatty acids, mainly oleic and linoleic, and is considered emollient: it fills the small gaps between the surface cells and limits water loss. The combination of a moisture-drawing ingredient with one that 'locks' it in is a logical basis for a cream aimed at very dry skin.
Its texture is creamy and rich, with the characteristic feeling of creams that 'embrace' the skin. It does not absorb as quickly as a light gel. It stays a bit longer on the surface, and this is exactly what is needed when the skin is thirsty.
The manufacturer recommends it for very dry and mature skin. It is suitable for those who feel their face pulling, peeling or reddening from the cold, for those who live in areas with heavy winters or spend a lot of time outdoors. Due to its rich formula, it is not the best choice for oily skin.
Once or twice a day, apply the cream to clean face and neck, according to your skin's needs. Warm a small amount between your fingers and gently press it onto the skin. Follow the instructions on the packaging.
