What moisturizing active ingredients are hidden in your CHO Nature treatments?

At CHO Nature, hydration is an institution : an essential , almost sacred gesture, to preserve the radiance , suppleness and comfort of the skin.

With the arrival of warmer weather, vacations, and rising temperatures, our skin has to adapt. It dehydrates more quickly, torn between sun, heat, air conditioning, and swimming.

Moisturizing isn't about drowning your skin in layers of products; it's about giving it what it truly needs to maintain its natural balance. That's why our skincare products are formulated with targeted, effective active ingredients that are kind to both your skin and the environment.

Because well-hydrated skin is skin that glows, that is more resistant to external aggressions, and that gets through the summer with serenity.

II.       Ingredients of natural origin  moisturizers

HAS.    LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT AND HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT HYALURONIC ACID

At CHO Nature, we have chosen to use two hyaluronic acids : the high molecular weight which forms a protective film on the surface, limiting water loss and strengthening the skin barrier , and the low molecular weight which penetrates deep to revitalize the skin and stimulate its natural collagen production .

Hyaluronic acid intensely hydrates the skin, both on the surface and deep down, for an immediate plumping effect. It is the most effective hydrating active ingredient in cosmetics.

💡 CHO Nature expert advice

For optimal hydration, always apply your treatments to slightly damp skin.
Why? Because pre-moistened skin retains water better and allows for better absorption of active ingredients.
After cleansing, spray on the floral care mist , then apply your serum or beauty oil within 30 seconds. This simple step makes all the difference, especially in summer!
