MoisturizingPalmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, Dipeptide-2 + 17 moreWorks well
“+ 83 % Hydration 4-hour Protection + 68 % Comfort + 48 % Radiance STRENGTH .”
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, butylene glycol.
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: butyrospermum parkii butter, dimethicone.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: dipeptide-2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7
Anti-agingPalmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, Dipeptide-2 + 3 moreMay help
“Self-assessment by 44 women after 1 month Clinical evaluation on 44 women after 1 month Instrumental evaluation of number of wrinkles on 21 women after 1 month Clinical evaluation on 32 women after 1 month”
This product contains adenosine, dipeptide-2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7. 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.
Evens skin toneAlbizia julibrissin bark extract, Glycyrrhiza glabra root extractNot delivered
“After one month, smoother and more even.”
This product contains ingredients (albizia julibrissin bark extract, glycyrrhiza glabra root extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
