Eucerin AQUAporin ACTIVE Cream for dry skin is a refreshing moisturizing face cream that strengthens the skin's own moisturizing system and makes the skin soft, smooth and shiny. Skin needs water to function well. Well-hydrated skin is smooth, soft and has a beautiful glow. When the skin's natural protective barrier is broken, it loses moisture and becomes dehydrated. Dehydrated skin lacks shine, is tight and cannot resist external irritants. As a result it becomes sensitive. Intense and long-lasting hydration is necessary to keep it looking and feeling great. Most moisturizers improve skin hydration by limiting water evaporation from the skin and/or locking in moisture in the upper layers with humectants such as glycerin. The skin has its own moisturizing system - aquaporins. They transport water between skin cells and support hydration from within. Eucerin AQUAporin ACTIVE increases the natural strength of aquaporins. The formula contains gluco-glycerol, an exceptional moisturizing ingredient that has been proven to increase the number of aquaporin channels in the skin. This means that in addition to limiting evaporation and retaining water in the outer layers of the skin, Eucerin AQUAporin ACTIVE also strengthens the skin's own moisturizing system. The velvety texture of Eucerin AQUAporin ACTIVE cream for dry skin provides intensive 24-hour hydration and is quickly absorbed into the skin. It soothes the feeling of tightness and makes the skin smooth and soft. Clinical and dermatological studies have proven the compatibility of Eucerin AQUAporin ACTIVE Dry Skin Care Cream with sensitive skin, which does not contain fragrance and parabens.
