An effective concentration of Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 5.00% - 7.50%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate in this product (2.10% - 3.10%) can also further help improve the skin barrier. It might be able to calm down inflammation and reduce sensitivity. Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is an active compound from the licorice root.
In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.60% - 2.40%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
Humectants (zinc pca 0.90% - 1.35%, betaine 1.20% - 1.80%, sodium hyaluronate 1.40% - 2.10%, allantoin 1.60% - 2.40%, dipotassium glycyrrhizate 2.10% - 3.10% and panthenol 5.00% - 7.50%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": allantoin, betaine.

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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

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

sodium hyaluronate 1.4% - 2.1%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin

zinc pca 0.9% - 1.35%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A compound that combines zinc with a hydrating ingredient PCA. Might to be helpful against acne and clogged pores. Can help calm down inflammation in skin. Could be helpful in reducing the formation of free radicals in skin. Might help to reduce fine lines in wrinkles, but solid evidence is missing

allantoin 1.6% - 2.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Exfoliating acid, a "relative" of salicylic acid

zinc pca 0.9% - 1.35%

allantoin 1.6% - 2.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

Exfoliation

This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: betaine salicylate.

betaine salicylate 1% - 1.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Exfoliating acid, a "relative" of salicylic acid
