Based on the ingredients included, "Uriage - Light Water Cream Normal To Combination Skins Eau Thermale D'Uriage Tous Types De Peau Uriage" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Uriage - Light Water Cream Normal To Combination Skins Eau Thermale D'Uriage Tous Types De Peau Uriage ticks this box. Urea, anhydroxylitol, diglycerin, glycerin and sodium hyaluronate 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 (butyrospermum parkii butter, dimethicone, squalane, cetyl alcohol and caprylyl glycol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
