This product contains palmitoyl tripeptide-1. 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.

WIMJ summary for moisturizing

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: sodium hyaluronate, butylene glycol.

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: butyrospermum parkii butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: palmitoyl tripeptide-1

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
theobroma cacao seed butter	HIGH
sodium hyaluronate	HIGH
squalane	HIGH

jojoba esters An emollient made of jojoba oil. Helps soften the skin and support its barrier function	3.8% - 5.7%
polyglyceryl-3 diisostearate Helps oil and water mix together	2.7% - 4%
hydrogenated coco-glycerides Helps oil and water mix together while creating a nice finish on the skin	2.2% - 3.3%
helianthus annuus seed oil A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function	1.9% - 2.8%
