Title: Skin Care FAQ: What Is An Emulsion?
Headings: 

Content: It’s perfectly lightweight and doesn’t feel too heavy, yet the addition of niacinamide adds a reinforcing barrier to protect the skin and make it stronger while antioxidants get to work nourishing and clearing sensitive skin. This product acts as a toner, essence, and emulsion all in one, and promotes elasticity and an even skin tone and texture. It also passed the “Skin Irritation Test,” making it ideal for sensitive skin types. And if you’re in my camp and struggle with dry skin, emulsions are seriously a life-saver. When you double up on emulsion and cream, the emulsion locks in the moisture from your prior steps and the cream can be focused on just soaking into the skin and hydrating it even further. For dry skin, the Etude House Moistfull Collagen Emulsion is perfect to adhere moisture and nutrients to skin and leave it feeling hydrated and elastic. The emulsion has small particles of super collagen water and baobab water which absorb quickly into skin; it’s lightweight yet moisturizing, and with a jelly-like consistency and smooth formula, you’ll feel your skin become hydrated and refreshed immediately. For even more moisture, you can also mix a facial oil into your emulsion since emulsions are water based and mixing in an oil means your skin gets both water and an oil-based moisture. Bottom Line
Ever since I started using an emulsion, my skin wakes up feeling hydrated and supple, and I certainly feel it has helped my night cream be more effective.
