Product Summary
Based on the ingredient list, "Garnier - Intensive 7 Days Aloe Vera Probiotic Extract Body Lotion Normal Skin" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Garnier - Intensive 7 Days Aloe Vera Probiotic Extract Body Lotion Normal Skin ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin, aloe barbadensis extract and caprylyl 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 (paraffinum liquidum, dimethicone, cetearyl alcohol, elaeis guineensis oil and caprylyl glycol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
