What is Biodroga Hydra Intense 24 Hour Care Rich?
Biodroga Medical Institute Hydra Intense 24 Hour Care Rich is a cream for very dry skin that needs extra nourishment. It is the richer-textured sibling to Biodroga’s standard Hydra Intense 24 Hour Care. The brand’s official size for this jar is 50 ml.
Both the line’s 3D Moisture Boost technology and its layered hyaluronic acid approach carry over. This version, however, delivers them in a heavier base of natural oils.
Key benefits
- Intensive hydration: formulated to reduce the look of roughness and dryness with regular use, for skin that needs more than a standard moisturizer.
- Multi-level moisture support: sodium hyaluronate and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate hydrate at different depths of the skin.
- Nourishing natural oils: peach kernel, apricot kernel and sweet almond oils also help nourish and soften very dry skin.
- Cushioned, comfortable feel: a richer texture than the standard Hydra Intense cream, built for lasting comfort.
Key ingredients
According to the product’s published ingredient list, three oils supply the extra richness that distinguishes this version. These are Prunus Persica (Peach) Kernel Oil, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil and Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil.
For layered hydration, Sodium Hyaluronate and Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate carry over from the standard formula, alongside Urea and Trehalose. In addition, Ceramide NP and Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter support the skin’s barrier. The formula is also fragrance-free.
How to use Hydra Intense 24 Hour Care Rich
- Before applying, cleanse and tone the skin as usual.
- Then apply a small amount to clean, dry skin, morning and evening.
- Massage gently over the face, neck and décolleté until fully absorbed.
- Follow with sunscreen during the day.
- Use daily for ongoing hydration, especially during colder months or in dry climates.
Who Hydra Intense 24 Hour Care Rich suits
This Rich version suits very dry skin that finds the standard Hydra Intense 24 Hour Care too light. It is also a good choice for anyone who wants extra comfort during colder months.
