What Is NP MOIST 24?

NP MOIST 24 is a proprietary complex that replicates the skins natural moisturising factors (NMF). It contains a balanced blend of amino acids, PCA, and lactate that mirrors the composition of healthy skin.

The NMF in our skin naturally decreases with age and environmental exposure, leading to dehydration and compromised barrier function. This complex helps replenish these essential hydrating components.

The formulation is designed for sustained hydration, maintaining skin moisture levels for up to 24 hours after application.
