Moisturizing agent is a category of cosmetic ingredients that can increase or maintain the moisture on the skin's surface for an extended period, keeping the skin soft and smooth. These ingredients have low volatility, allowing them to retain moisture and hold it on the skin's surface, making them a type of skin conditioning agent. In cosmetics, the moisturisers used are primarily organic, and they are mainly categorized as polyols, natural moisturizing factor analogs, sugars, and others.

More Information

Moisturizing ingredients can allure, enclose, and uphold moisture in the skin. They generally have humectants like hyaluronic acid and glycerin which draw water from the environment or deeper skin layers to hydrate the outermost layers of the skin.

 

Emollients such as natural oils and silicones create a protective barrier that seals in moisture within the skin. This barrier is strengthened by occlusives like petrolatum or beeswax, which reduce water evaporation from the surface of the skin thereby ensuring long-lasting hydration.

 

Common moisturizing ingredients:

● Hyaluronic Acid

● Glycerin

● Ceramides

● Shea Butter
