What the product description says

“A soothing cream infused with Panthecell™ and Centella Asiatica Extract to help calm and repair damaged skin barrier.”

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: carnosine, glycerin.

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: helianthus annuus seed oil, beta-sitosterol.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-2, acetyl tetrapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-5, acetyl tetrapeptide-9, ascorbic acid polypeptide, copper tripeptide-1, madecassoside, nonapeptide-1, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, panthenol

A naturally occurring peptide. One of the most studied peptides in dermatology. It is sometimes abbreviated GHK-Cu. Belongs to the class of carrier peptides. It stimulates both synthesis and breakdown of collagen in skin. It is released in skin wounds and inflammation to support healing. It accelerates wound-healing of the skin and can stimulate hair growth. There are preliminary studies that confirm that copper tripeptide can help support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles and decrease inflammation in skin.

Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "BIOHEAL BOH - Panthecell Repair Cica Cream" works well for improving skin hydration As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Humectants in this product (acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-5, panthenol and carnosine) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Palmitoyl tripeptide-1, beta-sitosterol, helianthus annuus seed oil, cetearyl alcohol and c12-16 alcohols in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

Ingredient callouts

This moisturizer also contains Peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.10% - 0.15%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.25%, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.15% - 0.25%, nonapeptide-1 0.15% - 0.30%, copper tripeptide-1 0.15% - 0.30%, acetyl tetrapeptide-9 0.20% - 0.35%, acetyl tetrapeptide-5 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl tetrapeptide-3 0.25% - 0.45%, acetyl tetrapeptide-2 0.25% - 0.50%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.25% - 0.50%, ascorbic acid polypeptide 0.30% - 0.50% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.30% - 0.55%). 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 they are 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.
Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - asiaticoside 0.30% - 0.50% and madecassoside 0.30% - 0.60% The Centella Asiatica Actives, even in low concentration, can help reduce inflammation in skin, strengthen the skin barrier and reduce photodamage. They can also help to decrease scarring.
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 4.20% (declared) concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: lecithin, vitamin e, allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate
