Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer

Judging from the ingredient list, "Peter Thomas Roth - Water Drench Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Peter Thomas Roth - Water Drench Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glycerin, saccharide isomerate, saccharomyces/copper ferment, saccharomyces/iron ferment and saccharomyces/magnesium ferment) 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 (caprooyl phytosphingosine, ceramide eop, ceramide np, ceramide ns and cholesterol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
