What makes Bioderma Huile de Douche one of the best fits for dry skin?

It also features gentle cleansers that wash effectively without stripping dry skin, and it is safe and soothing with no harsh ingredients.

Acta Dermato-venereologica, 2017Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017

Which ingredients make this cleanser a good fit for dry skin?

Glycerin and xylitol make this body wash a great fit for dry skin by pulling in moisture, while niacinamide helps repair the skin barrier to stop flakiness. Gentle cleansers like sodium cocoamphoacetate and lauryl glucoside wash the skin without stripping away its natural oils.

Acta Dermato-venereologica, 2017International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2014

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.

What does Niacinamide do for dry skin?

Niacinamide helps dry skin by strengthening the skin barrier, increasing hydration, and reducing water loss. It supports ceramide production and helps keep the surface smooth and calm. This ingredient tends to be very well tolerated and is unlikely to irritate dry skin.
