The skin surface, especially on the face, is constantly
subject to many external aggressions which can affect
its moisturization state, and this is notably the case in harsh
weather conditions during the winter period. As a result skin
hydration remains one of the most unfulfilled cosmetic claims
amongst consumers. Depending on the type of product tested
and the ingredients it contains (emollients, humectants etc.),
the choice of the suitable method to assess skin moisturization
differs. This presentationwill review the various in vivo methods
available to support moisturizing and skin barrier protection
claims. It will also extend to other skin characteristics such as
skin radiance which is influenced by skin moisturization. Finally
the notion of healthy skin which can be partially linked with the
moisturization state of the skin will be described.
