"Aveeno - Daily Moisturising Apricot Honey Yogurt Body Lotion" has a good moisturizing formula. As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Humectants in this product (glycerin) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Emollients in this formulation (petrolatum, dimethicone, cetyl alcohol and isopropyl palmitate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Daily Moisturising Apricot Honey Yogurt Body Lotion

Source: From product name

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: dimethicone, cetyl alcohol.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: petrolatum

Petrolatum2.1% - 3.1%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

One of the most effective and the most studied occlusive ingredients that creates a protective layer on top of the skin preventing moisture loss

Dimethicone1.4% - 2.1%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish

Glycerin4.1% - 6.1%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

Cetyl alcohol1.6% - 2.5%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:MEDIUM

A non-drying alcohol that works to soften the skin and stabilize product formulations helping oil and water mix together

Avena sativa kernel flour1.3% - 1.9%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Used to create a thicker product consistency

Isopropyl palmitate2.6% - 3.9%

Irritation risk:Comedogenicity:HighConcentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a thicker product consistency

Lactic acid0.15% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Insufficient!

An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)

Tocopherol0.05% - 0.3%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Insufficient!

Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
