Plum Harmony with Ceramides
Nourishing cream with plum kernel oil, ceramides, niacinamide and aloe vera
Plum Harmony is a gentle everyday emulsion for the face and body.
Plum kernel oil gives the cream a pleasant conditioning feel, while a smaller amount of shea butter provides additional lipid care without making the formula overly heavy.
The CLR PE-F Ceramide Complex is recommended at 5–10%, added during the cool-down phase and mixed gently to preserve its lamellar structure.
Niacinamide, D-panthenol and aloe vera round out the formula for comfortable everyday care.
