WIMJ summary

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: glycerin, hyaluronic acid.

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: vitis vinifera seed oil, cetearyl alcohol.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl tetrapeptide-5, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
hyaluronic acid	HIGH
vitis vinifera seed oil	HIGH
acetyl tetrapeptide-5	HIGH

WIMJ summary

This product contains antioxidants (imperata cylindrica root extract, palmitoyl grapevine shoot extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin	5.5% - 6.8%
cetearyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture	3.7% - 4.5%
ethylhexyl stearate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin	3.1% - 3.8%
cyclopentasiloxane A silicone that helps improve the product texture and spreadability. Can absord oil creating a short-term mattifying effect on the skin	2.3% - 2.8%
glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant	1.9% - 2.3%
triisostearin	1.5% - 1.8%
polymethyl methacrylate Is used to enhance product texture and can help to optically mask skin imperfections	1.4% - 1.7%
bis-behenyl/isostearyl/phytosteryl dimer dilinoleyl dimer dilinoleate	1.1% - 1.3%
peg-20 stearate	0.75% - 1.1%
titanium dioxide Works as a UV filter when used in high concentrations. It is photostable and is effective mostly against the UVB light, with some protection in the UVA range. In small concentrations, used for its ability to improve the color of cosmetic products. Is usually well tolerated by the skin	0.95% - 1.15%
imperata cylindrica root extract A plat extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin and attract water to its upper layer	0.45% - 0.7%
ci 77015	0.45% - 0.65%
hydrogenated avocado oil	0.35% - 0.6%
hydrogenated olive oil stearyl esters	0.35% - 0.6%
silica Used to absorb oil and can temporarily mattify skin	0.55% - 0.85%
vitis vinifera seed oil A great emollient that can also have anti-oxidant properties	0.4% - 0.6%
palmitoyl grape seed extract	0.3% - 0.55%

hydrolyzed hibiscus esculentus extract A plant extract that might contain a peptide (Myoxinol). It could be helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some anti-aging effect, but the research is lacking and it is rarely used in a high enough concentration	0.25% - 0.45%
dextrin A sugar that is used to stabilize the product formulation. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin	0.25% - 0.5%
