What the product description says
“Its essence intensely moisturizes dry, sensitive skin while protecting it from external irritants for a healthy complexion.”
Source: Yesstyle

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: allantoin, betaine.

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: beeswax, helianthus annuus seed oil.

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

What the product description says
“Cotton pads infused with mineral-rich seaweed extracts soothe skin while offering gentle exfoliation.”
Source: Yesstyle

This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.

Product summary

"BELLAMONSTER - Sensitive Care Solution Pad" is effective for: Moisturizing

This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.

Ingredient callouts

  • Ceramides (ceramide eop 0.15% - 0.60%, ceramide np 0.35% - 0.80% and phytosphingosine 0.50% - 1.15%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - asiaticoside 0.15% - 0.65% The Centella Asiatica Actives help strengthen and restore the skin barrier, decrease inflammation in skin and neutralize free radicals. They also can help to reduce scarring. The good news is that these actives work even in low concentrations.
  • In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.80% - 2.70%). 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 (glycerin 0.30% - 0.75%, panthenol 0.30% - 0.75%, glycerin 0.40% - 0.95%, betaine 0.40% - 0.90%, sucrose 1.40% - 2.00%, allantoin 1.80% - 2.70%, biosaccharide gum-1 4.60% - 6.90% and sodium hyaluronate 6.20% - 9.40%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
