34
Q

what are emollients? humectants? occlusives?

A
  • Lanolin, glyceryl stearate, and soy sterols are oily substances that make up true emollients. They fill cracks in the skin’s outermost layer, which improves the skin’s appearance by creating a smooth skin surface, increasing light reflection, and enhancing skin flexibility [6].
  • Protein-based emollients are rejuvenators and are mainly used for cosmetic purpose
  • Humectants such as urea, glycerol, and lactic acid are used to increase the skin’s water content by their ability to attract water vapour [6]. Glycerol (glycerine) is the most effective humectant [1,6].
  • Occlusives such as petroleum jelly (paraffin), mineral oil, and dimethicone are hydrophobic moisturisers that prevent evaporation by forming a waterproof barrier on the skin’s surface. For optimal results, it is recommended to apply occlusive agents on slightly dampened skin [1,6].
