Summary In this study the moisturization of the stratum corneum was assessed using a non‐invasive and non‐destructive in vivo method, i.e., Fourier Transform Infra Red spectroscopy. First, the values of absorption band integrations were recorded for the non‐treated skin. Next, the results after application of various cosmetic preparations were reported and correlated with corneometric findings.
