MOISTURIZE Meaning and
Definition
-
Moisturize is a verb that refers to the act of adding or retaining moisture in something, usually in reference to skin, hair, or other materials. It is the process of hydrating or replenishing moisture to prevent dryness, flakiness, or irritation. Moisturizing involves applying or using substances, such as creams, lotions, oils, or other products, to help retain moisture and increase overall hydration.
When applied to the skin, moisturizing products typically contain ingredients that are capable of attracting and retaining water, such as humectants and emollients. These substances help to create a protective barrier on the skin's surface, preventing water loss and sealing in moisture. Through regular moisturizing, the skin is maintained supple, nourished, and healthy-looking.
Similarly, moisturizing can also be done to keep hair hydrated and prevent it from becoming dry, brittle, or susceptible to damage. Hair moisturizers are designed to infuse the hair shaft with moisture, making it softer, more manageable, and less prone to breakage.
While skincare and haircare are the most common applications of moisturizing, the term can also be used more broadly to describe the act of adding moisture to various materials, such as wood, fabric, or food, to maintain their quality or prevent damage caused by dryness.

Etymology of MOISTURIZE
The word "moisturize" comes from the combination of the words "moist" and "-ize".
1. "Moist" originates from the Old French word "moiste", which means wet or damp. It further comes from the Latin word "mūcidus", meaning moldy or musty.
2. "-Ize" is a suffix derived from the Greek "-izein", referring to the act or process of making or becoming something.
Therefore, "moisturize" combines these components to mean the act or process of making something moist or adding moisture to something, particularly referring to the skin.
