## Questions and answers

### How well does Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturiser work for dry sensitive skin?

This moisturizer works for dry sensitive skin by offering moderate hydration and calming comfort, though other products fit it better. To properly care for this skin, a product needs intense moisturizers like hyaluronic acid alongside rich softening agents and skin-strengthening ingredients.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/)

### Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for dry sensitive skin?

Glycerin and panthenol make this cream a good fit for dry sensitive skin by helping hold water in the skin and supporting the protective barrier, while allantoin and bisabolol calm irritation. To work best for this skin, a moisturizer of this type needs rich nourishing ingredients and deep-acting hydrators that lock in moisture and soothe dryness without any risk of irritation.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/)

### What does Glycerin do for dry sensitive skin?

Glycerin helps dry sensitive skin by drawing moisture into the skin and keeping it there, making the skin soft and smooth. It is very gentle and unlikely to cause irritation while improving how well the skin holds onto water. This type of skin needs ingredients that boost hydration and repair the barrier without causing stinging.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/), [The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18510666/)

### What does Panthenol do for dry sensitive skin?

Panthenol helps soothe dry sensitive skin by calming redness and keeping it deeply hydrated. It improves moisture retention and supports skin barrier recovery, making irritated skin feel much more comfortable and soft.
Sources: [American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12113650/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/)

### Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for dry sensitive skin?

This cream goes in the evening routine as the final moisturizing step after your cleanser, toner, and treatment. For daytime, dry sensitive skin needs a moisturizer with built-in sun protection to keep skin soft and shield it from UV rays.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32239984/)

### Can I use this cream with retinol, and in what order?

You may use this cream with retinol by applying it after your retinol treatment to help soothe your skin and keep it comfortable. This type of routine benefits from a moisturizer that supports the skin barrier and provides reliable hydration.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27425824/)

### How often should I use this cream?

You can use this moisturizer morning and night to keep your dry, sensitive skin feeling comfortable and calm. Regular daily use helps maintain moisture and supports your skin barrier, though dry skin often benefits even more from richer ingredients and deep-nourishing oils.
Sources: [Health Science Reports, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34141902/), [Dermatology, 2003](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14571069/)

### Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry sensitive skin?

This cream is unlikely to cause breakouts or reactions for your dry sensitive skin because it is free of harsh ingredients and contains soothing components like allantoin and bisabolol. Reviewers rarely report any breakouts or reactions.

### Can I use this cream around the eyes or on my body?

You can use this cream on your body and around your eyes, as it is safe for dry and sensitive skin. Because the skin around the eyes and on parts of the body is very thin, a moisturizer of this type needs rich hydrators like glycerin and soothing ingredients like panthenol and allantoin to keep those areas comfortable.

### Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Stearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
