You can completely remove guarcat. The benefits of it are overstated. I love vegetable glycerine because of its feel, it does wash off but I find that the inclusion improves my hair even if a little.

Use a very small amount immediately after wetting skin and lightly blotting dry. You have to use humectants strategically and layer various products. If made correctly, HA quenches skin on contact. But on very dry skin in dry weather, you won’t do your skin any favors. Also a dry or tight feel doesn’t necessarily mean dry skin. Skin feel is a different part of skin care. Film forming agents can make the tight feeling much smoother. One of my favorites is seaweed powder. Smells like doo doo but I can’t recommend it enough from a consumer standpoint. Formulating with it is difficult but I’m sure the well trained chemists on here can explain its use.

How would rice starch impact the skin feel of a 10-20 urea face cream? I happen to like the ‘greasy’ effect of urea but reading about its benefits I want to see if it would improve the texture.
