Questions and answers
How well does ISDIN Hyaluronic Moisture for dry skin work?
This moisturizer provides basic hydration for your dry skin using glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and dimethicone, making it safe for daily use. While it offers moderate hydration and comfort, a product for dry skin needs rich, highly effective soothing ingredients, rich nourishing formulas, and barrier support without allergens to fit this skin best.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Life, 2023
Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for dry skin?
Glycerin and hyaluronic acid make this cream a good fit by pulling in moisture, while caprylic capric triglyceride and dimethicone help lock it in to keep your skin comfortable. To fit dry skin even better, a moisturizer needs a richer blend of deeply nourishing ingredients and soothing agents that offer maximum hydration and strong support for the skin barrier.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Life, 2023
What does Water do for dry skin?
Drinking more water helps increase skin hydration and may reduce clinical signs of dryness and roughness, particularly for individuals with lower prior water consumption.
What does Glycerin do for dry skin?
Glycerin helps dry skin by drawing in moisture and keeping it locked in, which makes the skin feel much softer and smoother. It also supports your natural skin barrier to stop water from escaping easily. A product for dry skin needs extra ingredients like hyaluronic acid and soothing plant extracts to truly calm and hydrate dry patches.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017The British Journal of Dermatology, 2008
Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for dry skin?
In your morning routine, apply this moisturizer after your cleanser and hydrating toner, and before your sunscreen. In the evening, use it as the final step after cleansing and applying your treatment.
Can I use this cream with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this moisturizer with retinol by applying your retinol treatment first and following with the cream to help keep your skin comfortable. This routine helps maintain skin hydration while you use active treatments.
How often should I use this cream?
You can safely use this moisturizer daily, applying it in the morning and evening to help keep your dry skin comfortable. This type of product works well for basic daily hydration, though dry skin often needs richer oils and stronger barrier-repair ingredients to stay truly soft and smooth.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Health Science Reports, 2021
Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for dry skin?
This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for dry skin, as its formula avoids harsh ingredients and is safe for daily use. However, because it only provides basic hydration, dry skin often needs richer creams with heavy oils and butters to deeply soften and lock in moisture.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Life, 2023
Can I use this cream around the eyes or on my body?
This cream works safely on the delicate skin around the eyes and body, providing basic moisture and comfort. To fully care for very dry skin, a moisturizer of this type needs richer oils and barrier-repairing ingredients to lock in hydration and smooth flaky areas.
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017
Is this cream fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
What the research says
A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017Topical application of an emollient emulsion containing 15.0% caprylic/capric triglyceride doubled the amount of urocanic acid isomers and increased skin hydration with reduced transepidermal water loss in healthy subjects, though it did not prevent ultraviolet-induced urocanic acid isomerization.
Life, 2023Petrolatum-based skin protectants demonstrated protection against irritants and maceration while providing skin hydration, whereas dimethicone and zinc oxide products showed varying or limited performance across parameters among 18 healthy volunteers compared to positive and negative controls.
Ostomy/wound Management, 2005The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant.
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.
Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2012Topical application of 0.1% hyaluronic acid formulations of different molecular weights led to significant improvements in skin hydration and elasticity, with low-molecular-weight formulations also significantly reducing wrinkle depth in seventy-six female subjects compared to a vehicle control.
Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2011Topical application of hyaluronic acid in conjunction with free gingival graft significantly reduced donor site postoperative pain until day 7 compared to normal saline, with no significant differences in graft dimensions or patient satisfaction.
Clinical Oral Investigations, 2022Treatment with a hyaluronic acid-containing mouth rinse or topical gel led to significant lesion reduction, pain relief, and normalization of lesion color in adult patients with minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis, with the gel formulation showing an earlier healing onset at 3 days.
