Hello, I am very interested in buying this pruduct. But I just need to know a full detailed description of it and how to use it. Do you just dive with it, and then come up, and NO WATER enters? Thanks

Essentially, yes. Not all dry snorkels are identical, but they all work on a similar premise. When the snorkel goes under the water, the pressure forces a "stopper" to seal off the top of the tube, preventing water from entering. When you surface the pressure is relieved, the stopper loosens up, and you can use the snorkel normally. Of course, you must keep the snorkel in your mouth when you dive under as there is no mechanism that would prevent water from entering through the mouthpiece section.
