Scholl Cracked Heel Skin Repair Balm Cream

Based on the ingredient list, "Scholl - Cracked Heel Skin Repair Balm Cream" can work well for skin moisturization. The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Panthenol, urea, faex and sorbitol 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). Lanolin, petrolatum, cera microcristallina, dimethicone and decyl oleate 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.
