Curel Intensive Face Moisturizer Cream
No. 02 in Edit 020

Curel Intensive Face Moisturizer Cream

Moisturizers Japan Approx. $40

The heavy end of the Curel range, with squalane, glycerin and allantoin and no fragrance. Japanese sensitive-skin formulation tends towards fewer actives and more restraint than the Korean equivalent, and this is a clean example of that difference.
