moisturiser
Cream for dryness
Moisturiser is the British spelling of moisturizer—a cream or lotion applied to skin to prevent dryness.
Moisturisers work by trapping water in the outer layer of skin or adding oils to replace what's lost.

The term extends to products for hair and other materials that benefit from hydration.
