What does the product description say?
For those looking to achieve a more even-toned and radiant complexion in general, the Cream’s anti-ageing and anti-melanogenic properties improve other surface-level issues, such as poor skin texture.
retinyl palmitate

Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness:
MEDIUM
Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect

Irritation risk: Comedogenicity: High
Concentration: Effectiveness:

Concentration: Effectiveness:
LOW
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
