Yves Saint Laurent YSL Beauty Pure Shots Hydra Bounce Essence-in-Lotion

Based on the ingredient list, "Yves Saint Laurent - YSL Beauty Pure Shots Hydra Bounce Essence-in-Lotion" can work well for skin moisturization. This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, peg/ppg/polybutylene glycol-8/5/3 glycerin, butylene glycol and caprylyl glycol 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). Bis-behenyl/isostearyl/phytosteryl dimer dilinoleyl dimer dilinoleate, caprylyl glycol, pentylene glycol and isononyl isononanoate 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.
