###What is an emollient and how does it work?
An emollient is a skin care ingredient that softens dry, rough, and flakey skin. When the top layer of your skin lacks moisture, it can dry out and cause cracking and flaking. Emollients fill the gaps between skin cells with fatty substances, called lipids, which make your skin smoother and softer. Emollients that contain a lot of oil also act as occlusive agents, forming a thin oily film that helps to retain moisture in the skin, keeping it hydrated for a longer period. Although emollients are often used in moisturisers, they are not the same thing - they are simply one of the ingredients that help to keep skin soft and smooth.
