“Helps to add essential moisture to the skin Vitamin E. This powerful multi-benefit antioxidant helps protect skin from damage caused by free radicals and shields skin from the elements while soothing, and nourishing.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, dimethicone.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
