Review: MAMONDE Advanced Moisture Ceramide Range feat. Hibiscus & MAMONDE Flower Lab Essence Mask

Hello! MAMONDE’s latest skincare range is all about Hibiscus this round. Being a Malaysian, we have long known Hibiscus as our national flower. But do you know what are the beauty benefits it brings to our skin? ❤ 

I am actually surprised to learn that hibiscus flowers is actually known as “Botox Plant” because of its benefits of exfoliating, firming and lifting. Plus, it is a source of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) which help increase moisture in the skin.

So, the Advanced Moisture Ceramide range is here to bring out the best of Hibiscus.

If you have other skin concerns, please feel free to take a look at my past reviews on MAMONDE products:

Why Ceramide?

I always love how MAMONDE combines the benefits of different ingredients to create synergy in each product. For this new range, MAMONDE has combined the moisturizing substance of Hibiscus flower with Ceramide that strengthens the skin barrier.

Ceramide is the most important component making up the skin layer since it accounts for about 50% of the lipid that also functions to supply ample moisture to the skin. When our skin turns dry, dull, rough and dehydrated due to the external harmful factors, all we need is ceramide that helps repair and protect our skin barrier, making it easier to repair skin troubles such as wrinkles, dry skin and breakouts. 

Benefits of MAMONDE *NEW* Advanced Moisture Ceramide Range

❤ Double amount of Hibiscus extracts, double moisturising benefits

❤ “Double-Moisture Barrier Technology” strengthens the skin’s protective layer

❤ High concentration of ceramide limits harmful substances inflow and ensures constantly hydrated skin

❤ “Lipid Networking System” creates a soft, smooth and tight texture that absorbs easily into skin

ADVANCED MOISTURE CERAMIDE : STAR PRODUCT

Moisture Ceramide Light Cream (50ml) @ RM139

Among the 4 items in this new range, the Light Cream is a must-have! It contains double amount of moisturizing ingredients (mainly hibiscus extracts) to strengthen skin’s moisture barrier in keeping the skin moisturised and healthy.

Having the structure similar to the skin's own components, ceramide is quickly absorbed to offer moisture.

 Benefits:★★★★☆
❤ 24-hour hydration
❤ Protects / strengthens skin's moisture barrier

Texture: ★★★★☆

Lightweight, soft and refreshing.

Feel: ★★★★★

Upon application, it easily melts onto the skin, sealing it a layer of fresh, moisturizing ‘lotion-like’ cream. Since it is a lighter alternative to the usual facial cream, I find it great for those with combination skin or for those who don't like the heaviness of the Intense Cream.

Result: ★★★★★
Absorption wise, it is really quick. And I love how it delivers quick moisture boost to the skin almost instantly.
