Deep Moisturizing Macadamia Hand &Body Lotion with Aquaxyl

This luxurious hand and body lotion is infused with Macadamia oil and Aquaxyl to deeply moisturize and hydrate the skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth all day long.

I used Polyaquol VO4 in this product to demonstrate how small changes can change the consistency of the final product.

The formulation itself is pretty simple and is easy to customize but it produces amazing long-lasting hydration and moisturizing properties due to Aquaxyl

AQUAXYL (INCI: Xylitylglucoside (and) Anhydroxylitol (and) Xylitol)

Aquaxyl is a patented skincare ingredient that is renowned for its moisturizing and hydrating properties. It is derived from two plant sugars, xylitol and glucose, and works by improving the skin's water reserves and optimizing its water circulation. Aquaxyl is designed to target and address dehydration, a common skincare concern that can lead to dullness, tightness, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By enhancing the skin's ability to retain water and preventing water loss, Aquaxyl helps to restore and maintain optimal moisture levels, resulting in a plump, hydrated, and radiant complexion.

One of the key benefits of Aquaxyl is its multi-dimensional action. It not only moisturizes the outer layers of the skin but also improves the moisture content in the deeper layers. By promoting the synthesis of essential lipids and reinforcing the skin's natural barrier function, Aquaxyl helps to prevent transepidermal water loss, ensuring long-lasting hydration. Additionally, Aquaxyl has been shown to stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring molecule that attracts and retains moisture in the skin. This further contributes to the overall hydration and elasticity of the skin, making Aquaxyl a valuable ingredient in skincare formulations aimed at providing intense and sustained hydration.

I really love this lotion. It is very light but still super moisturizing and hydrating. And you can see that using 3% of Polyaquol VO4 even without thickeners creates way thicker emulsions than 2% Polyaquol VO4 with 0.2% Xanthan Gum.

I hope you will give this formulation a try and see how wonderful it is!
