Ingredient callouts
- Adenosine 0.10% - 0.30%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
- Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.05% - 0.20%, arginine 0.50% - 1.15%, betaine 1.20% - 1.80% and glycerin 4.40% - 6.60%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
Infused with Propolis and Herbal Extracts, Allantoin and Adenosine to hydrate and nourish skin Improves skin elasticity and reduces appearances of fine lines and wrinkles Can also be used as a wash-off mask or moisturizer
Source: Lila Beauty
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
Might help improve cell turnover and reduce inflammation in skin. One study shows that the ingredients might be able to help reduce dynamic wrinkles (for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead)
Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
KEY INGREDIENTS • 70% Full Fit Pro-Barrier Complex Provide deep hydration and a healty glow to the skin (59.9% propolis extract, 5.35% honey extract(honey extract + honey acid) and 4.75% royal jelly extract) Full Ingredients

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:
arginine, betaine.
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, beeswax.
