Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

This treatment restores skin at the cellular level with pentapeptides, helps reduce wrinkles and leaves skin thicker, firmer and more youthful.

Source: Skinstore

This product contains tocotrienols. 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.

tocotrienols 0.4% - 0.95%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

A type of vitamin E that is more powerful in neutralizing free radicals compared to its other forms

camellia sinensis leaf extract 0.05% - 0.15%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation

tocopherol 0.2% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself

Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

Defends and hydrates skin.

Source: Skinstore

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

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).

aleurites moluccanus seed oil 1.1% - 1.6%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps soften the upper layer of the skin

glycerin 3.3% - 4.9%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

superoxide dismutase 1.6% - 2.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

An antioxidant enzyme that is naturally present in skin. It can help support skin barrier function and reduce inflammation in skin. It is used in topical medications for inflammatory skin conditions including atopic dermatitis (eczema) and psoriasis. There are three types of natural Superoxide Dismutase in human skin. The compound used in topical treatments and cosmetics are mimics of typically one of these natural variants

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (superoxide dismutase, tocotrienols) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).

The following ingredients - quercetin also can have an antioxidant effect, but there is less evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin.

tocotrienols 0.4% - 0.95%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A type of vitamin E that is more powerful in neutralizing free radicals compared to its other forms
