Eucerin Aquaporin Active Hydration for Dry Skin

"Eucerin - Aquaporin Active Hydration for Dry Skin" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Eucerin - Aquaporin Active Hydration for Dry Skin ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol, glycerin, glyceryl glucoside, glucose and butylene glycol) 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 (caprylic/capric triglyceride, dimethicone, caprylyl glycol and dicaprylyl carbonate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts
