MoisturizingPanthenol, Inulin + 5 moreWorks well
“Aloe gel contains concentrated aloe extract that soothes, moisturizes and heals the skin, hyaluronic acid that saturates the skin with moisture and accelerates healing, and prebiotics that restore the balance and natural protective layer of the skin.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": fructose, sodium hyaluronate.
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).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol
