Glycerin, urea, allantoin: how humectant ingredients work
Hydration of the skin does not simply mean «adding water». The outer layer of the skin, the keratin layer, needs substances that retain moisture so that it remains flexible and smooth. In cosmetology, these substances are called humectants.
The glycerin is perhaps the most well-known and most studied of these, with a history of decades in cosmetics. The urea is an ingredient that exists naturally in the skin, as part of the so-called natural moisturizing factor, and is therefore often used in products for dry skin. The allantoin is known for the soothing sensation and the softness it provides to the skin.
When such ingredients are combined in a mask, which stays on the face for several minutes, the effect becomes more noticeable than with a simple cream. Goat milk completes the composition with its characteristic caring sensation. Fine lines due to dehydration often appear less when the skin is well hydrated.
