Product Summary
"I Dew Care - Raise Your Guard Moisturizing Probiotics Body Lotions" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. I Dew Care - Raise Your Guard Moisturizing Probiotics Body Lotions ticks this box. Humectants in this product (betaine, fructooligosaccharides, glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid and sucrose) 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 (ceramide np, cholesterol, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate and neopentyl glycol diheptanoate) 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
- Another benefit is that this moisturizer contain ceramides (ceramide np 0.55% - 0.85%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.

Raise Your Guard Moisturizing Probiotics Body Lotions
Source: From product name
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.

within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
betaine, fructooligosaccharides.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: cholesterol, cetearyl alcohol.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide np
