What does the product description say?

Ato Barrier 365 Hydro Essence

Source: From product name

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: alanine, aspartic acid.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: squalene, cholesterol.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: urea

alanine 0.01% - 0.05%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might help to lighten the skin, but solid evidence is lacking

aspartic acid 0.01% - 0.05%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An amino-acid that helps increase skin hydration and might help to slightly improve skin firmness, potentially reducing lines and wrinkles

histidine 0.05% - 0.15%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Anti-aging

This product contains aspartic acid, creatine, lysine, serine, threonine. These ingredients might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

creatine 0.01% - 0.1%

Irritation risk:
