Rich, everyday comfort for skin that feels tight
Ducray Ictyane Nutritive Emollient Cream is a daily nourishing cream for the face and body, made for adults with dry to very dry skin. It relieves tightness and leaves skin comfortable and supple, with up to 48 hours of hydration. Acefylline helps the skin produce its own Natural Moisturizing Factor by activating the conversion of filaggrin, so it holds on to water better. Abyssinian oil, rich in omega 6 and 9 fatty acids, helps strengthen the skin barrier and restore its balance. In a consumer test, 95% of users were satisfied with the intense nourishment. The formula is 78% natural origin and made in France.
The texture
A velvety cream that spreads easily over large areas and sinks in without leaving skin sticky. It has a delicate, floral scent. The large 400ml format is made for whole-body use, day after day.
Who it suits
- Dry to very dry skin on the face and body
- Skin that feels tight, rough or uncomfortable
- Winter weather, heating and hard water
- Adults who want one cream for the whole body
Worth knowing before you buy: it contains mineral oil, paraffin and fragrance with several listed allergens (limonene, linalool, geraniol, citronellol). For very reactive or atopic-prone skin, a fragrance-free emollient may be a better fit.
How long a bottle lasts
Applied once a day to the arms and legs, the 400ml bottle lasts about six weeks. Whole-body use twice a day will go faster.
