Humectant moisturizers attract water from the air and from deep in the skin to the visible layer of skin. These moisturizers aren’t as thick and heavy on the skin as occlusives, and they are less likely to clog pores, so they are better for people with acne issues. They plump the skin and reduce wrinkles, acting as instant wrinkle fillers. Some examples of humectants include hyaluronic acid, glycerin, lactic acid, propylene glycol, and urea.
