I like to explain that if you look under a microscope at dry skin you will see what looks like a landscape of plates angled on top of each other in all directions reflecting the light away from the skin. Moisturizing "smoothes" out the surface allowing 20-30% more light to get to the skin. Analogies abound but it is essential the however you can get the message across, get the message across.
