Mechanism of action
Eucerin Lotion is a topical moisturizer that works by occluding the skin surface and drawing moisture into the stratum corneum through a combination of emollients (such as mineral oil and petrolatum) and humectants (such as glycerin). This dual mechanism helps restore skin hydration, improve barrier function, and reduce transepidermal water loss in dry or sensitive skin conditions.
