Kao Japan’s skincare research team has discovered that dry and sensitive skin is caused by a lack of Ceramide, resulting in skin problems and symptoms of discomfort. Curél also discovered that dry and sensitive skin troubles amongst Malaysians were mainly caused by factors such as pro-longed exposure to UV rays and pollution. The use of unsuitable skincare products could also aggravate sensitive skin woes. As such, skin affected by these external irritants cause problems such as tautness, redness, itchiness, allergies and skin peeling prone to itching and redness.

Curél contains the essential ingredient – Ceramide-functioning ingredient, which is dermatological formulated and clinically proven to be hydrating, penetrating and moisture-retaining for the skin. It not only helps improve low barrier conditions on the skin surface, but also targets the problem from within.
