MoisturizingGlycerin, Soluble collagen + 1 moreWorks
“Bodylife's Collagen body and facial skincare gel has been carefully formulated to act as a moisturiser for daily use to help to keep your skin supple and hydrated.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, soluble collagen.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
