Based on the ingredient list, "Jergens - Wet Skin Moisturizer with Argan Oil" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Jergens - Wet Skin Moisturizer with Argan Oil ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin, hyaluronic acid and sodium hyaluronate) 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). Paraffinum liquidum, butyrospermum parkii butter and ethylhexyl isononanoate in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.
