Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (acetyl tetrapeptide-15 1.40% - 2.10% and acetyl hexapeptide-37 0.95% - 1.45%). 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.
- Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 1.60% - 2.50%, mannitol 0.15% - 0.70%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 1.20% - 1.80%, glycerin 3.80% - 5.80% and erythritol 2.00% - 3.10%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What does the product description say?
1 Intense Moisturizing Serum
Source: From product name
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": erythritol, glycerin.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-37, acetyl tetrapeptide-15
