Product summary

Based on the ingredients included, "StriVectin - Re-Quench Water Cream Hyaluronic + Electrolyte Moisturizer" works well for moisturizing the skin. The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Betaine, fructooligosaccharides, glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid and saccharide isomerate 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). Emollients in this formulation (isosorbide dicaprylate, dimethicone, caprylyl glycol and ethylhexyl isononanoate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
