"No7 - Beautiful Skin Cocooning Body Souffle" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. No7 - Beautiful Skin Cocooning Body Souffle ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin, caprylyl glycol and peg-8) 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, vitis vinifera seed oil, butyrospermum parkii butter, caprylyl glycol and isononyl isononanoate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
