How does the light texture of this cream still provide enough hydration for dry skin?

Dr.Sante Moisturising Face Cream for Dry Skin is formulated with a light texture specifically so it can be used daily without feeling heavy or greasy. For dry skin, consistency of use often matters more than richness alone — a cream that absorbs quickly and sits comfortably under makeup or sunscreen is easier to apply every morning and evening, which keeps the skin's hydrolipidic film supported over time. The formula works by attracting water into the upper layers of the skin and forming a light protective layer that reduces moisture loss. This dual action means the skin feels softer, calmer, and smoother with less visible flaking, even though the finish isn't occlusive or thick. If your skin is very dry, you can layer a slightly thicker occlusive product (like a facial oil or balm) over this cream at night, but many people find the hydration sufficient on its own for daytime use and for normal-to-dry conditions.
