How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: Dr. Hauschka Regenerating Serum has a moisturizing rating of 2.6 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Purely humectant. It has zero occlusivity (we didn't find any occlusive ingredients on the ingredient list) and a moderate humectancy of 5.3 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Glycerin (est. ≈3.0%).

Tip: Studies suggest that humectants alone do not moisturize the skin. We recommend applying a product with some occlusive ingredients after the use of this one.
