Works for
MoisturizingPalmitoyl tripeptide-5, Sh-oligopeptide-1 + 12 moreWorks well
“Formulated with low-molecular-weight collagen, oligo hyaluronic acid and galactomyces ferment filtrate, this gel-type toner pad firms, hydrates and brightens skin.”
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, arginine.
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: arginine.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: palmitoyl tripeptide-5, sh-oligopeptide-1, sh-oligopeptide-2, sh-polypeptide-1, sh-polypeptide-22, sh-polypeptide-3
Anti-agingPalmitoyl tripeptide-5, Sh-polypeptide-22 + 6 moreMay help
“boost skin elasticity”
This product contains palmitoyl tripeptide-5, sh-oligopeptide-1, sh-oligopeptide-2, sh-polypeptide-1, sh-polypeptide-22, sh-polypeptide-3. These ingredients 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.

A yeast ferment filtrate (also known as Pitera - a trademarked name for the filtrate reserved by the SK-II brand). It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin, can help neutralize antioxidants and can be helpful in evening out the skin tone. It might be somewhat helpful in preventing premature skin aging but solid evidence is lacking. A small manufacturer study also shows that, when used in high concentrations, it can help reduce sebum production and help against blocked pores

Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (sh-polypeptide-3 0.05% - 0.10%, sh-oligopeptide-2 0.05% - 0.15%, sh-polypeptide-1 0.05% - 0.20%, sh-oligopeptide-1 0.05% - 0.25%, sh-polypeptide-22 0.05% - 0.25% and palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.15% - 0.70%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
- In addition, this product contains Allantoin (0.85% - 1.30%). 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 (hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.15% - 0.55%, arginine 1.30% - 2.00% and glycerin 1.80% - 2.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
