What do emollients do?

Increase hair growth
Soften and condition the skin
Act as a cleanser
Promote healing

The correct answer is: Soften and condition the skin

Emollients are substances that help to soften and moisturize the skin. They do not increase hair growth, act as a cleanser, or promote healing. Emollients are specifically designed to nourish and hydrate the skin, making it soft and supple. They work by forming a protective layer on the skin that traps moisture and prevents it from evaporating. This is why they are often used in skincare products for dry and sensitive skin. Therefore, option B is the correct answer, while the other options are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the function of emollients.
