Kate Somerville DermalQuench Wrinkle Warrior

Based on the ingredient list, "Kate Somerville - DermalQuench Wrinkle Warrior" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Kate Somerville - DermalQuench Wrinkle Warrior ticks this box. Betaine, glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid and sodium hyaluronate in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Isosorbide dicaprylate, chondrus crispus extract, dimethicone, cetearyl alcohol and glycine soja seed extract 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.
