Fuktkräm

Fuktkräm is a cosmetic product designed to hydrate the skin and reduce moisture loss. It works by delivering water to the outer skin layer and by using ingredients that help retain moisture and support the skin’s barrier function. The goal is to improve skin elasticity, reduce dryness, and create a smoother texture.

Most fuktkräm formulations contain a combination of humectants, emollients, and occlusives. Humectants such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and urea attract water to the skin. Emollients like fatty acids and esters soften and smooth the skin, while occlusives such as petrolatum or dimethicone form a barrier to prevent water loss. Some products also include vitamins, antioxidants, or barrier-supporting lipids to address specific concerns.

Fuktkräm comes in a range of formulations to suit different skin types and needs. Lightweight, non-greasy options are common for normal or oily skin, while richer creams are suited for dry or mature skin. There are also gel-cream textures for combination skin and fragrance-free or hypoallergenic versions for sensitive skin. Night creams may be more occlusive, while day creams often include sunscreen or protective ingredients.

To use fuktkräm, apply after cleansing and toning, ideally on slightly damp skin to lock in moisture. It can be layered with serums, and a broad-spectrum sunscreen should be worn during daytime. Users should select a product appropriate for their skin type and avoid known irritants if sensitivity is a concern. Store in a cool, dry place and check for signs of spoilage or irritation. If dryness or irritation persists, consult a dermatologist.
