MoisturizingGalactoarabinan, Helianthus annuus seed oil + 1 moreWorks
“Nourish your complexion while defending it against ageing free radicals with the Antipodes Worship Skin Defence Antioxidant Serum, a vegan anti-ageing serum packed with antioxidants to shield your skin from environmental aggressors.”
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:
galactoarabinan.
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: helianthus annuus seed oil.
Anti-agingVitis vinifera seed extract, TocopherolMay help
“Protect your skin from the signs of early aging with this organic anti-aging serum, scientifically shown to defend cells against the oxidative stress that can lead to your skin’s early aging.”
This product contains vitis vinifera seed extract. This ingredient 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.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Vitis vinifera seed extract, Euterpe oleracea fruit oil + 2 moreWorks well
