Beeswax: The Natural Protective Layer for Your Skin
Beeswax is a true all-rounder in skincare. The natural ingredient is produced by bees and forms a protective film on our skin. This way, valuable moisture cannot be lost so quickly. Especially dry and sensitive skin benefits from the properties of beeswax. It soothes irritated skin and provides intensive moisture.
Our Recommendation for Beeswax Fans
The Mabox Collagen Day & Night Anti-Aging Cream combines beeswax with nourishing collagen. The rich cream provides the skin with moisture all day and overnight. Fine lines and wrinkles are softened, the skin feels smooth and supple.
Hyaluronic Acid: The Moisture Magnet for Plump Skin
Hyaluronic acid is a real moisture booster. The body's own substance can bind many times its own weight in water. Incorporated into serums and creams, hyaluronic acid intensively moisturizes the skin and makes it glow from within. The extra portion of moisture plumps up and softens wrinkles. The perfect anti-aging effect!
