Does This Works Limited Edition Skin Deep Dry Leg Oil work?

Based on the ingredient list analysis by CreamScan AI, these are the key benefits you can expect from using This Works Limited Edition Skin Deep Dry Leg Oil:

  • Strong occlusive moisturizing. This exceptionally occlusive moisturizer, ideal for dry and very dry skin, has a moderate moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10, impaired by the absence of humectants.

Moisturizer with the right occlusivity for very dry skin, ideally to be paired with a humectant-rich product

According to CreamScan analysis, This Works Limited Edition Skin Deep Dry Leg Oil is quite moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 5.0 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? It is purely occlusive. It has zero Humectancy (we didn't find any humectant ingredients on the ingredient list) and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, due to the high content of Prunus Persica (Peach) Kernel Oil (est. ≈45.0%), Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil (est. ≈22.0%) and Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil (est. ≈11.0%).

This type of product, when used as a standalone moisturizer, can deliver an exceptional level of occlusive hydration that is adequate for dry to very skin. The occlusive profile of This Works Limited Edition Skin Deep Dry Leg Oil suggests a rich, thick texture, making it perfectly suited for dry skin.

However, it contains no humectants, and people with dry skin would definitely benefit from adding water-binding humectants to their moisturizing routine for effective dual-action moisturizing. If this is your only moisturizer, it may be worth including a humectant-rich product, such as a serum, in your skincare routine.

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.
