Moisturizing
2 ingredients contribute at the levels below
Good evidence

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, caprylyl glycol.

Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).

SIMMONDSIA CHINENSIS SEED OILRole: HeroSoftens the upper layer of skin and helps restore the healthy skin barrier. Has shown to help calm down inflammation in skin. It is a stable oil, meaning that it retains its properties even when exposed to air.~2.4–3.6%
TRIETHYLHEXANOINRole: Key activeHelps soften the upper layer of the skin~26–39%
