moisturising
Replenishing skin's water
Moisturising is the British spelling of moisturizing—adding moisture to skin, hair, or other surfaces to prevent dryness.
The term appears as both verb and adjective: a moisturising cream, moisturising after a shower.
Skincare routines typically include moisturising as a step after cleansing.
