What the product description says
“Made with a blend of 5 types of Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol, and Vitamin E to provide long-lasting hydration.”
Source: Lila Beauty

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: dextran, erythritol.

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: cholesterol, hydrolyzed collagen.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl glucosamine, acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl tetrapeptide-2, ceramide ap, ceramide as, ceramide eop, ceramide np, ceramide ns, copper tripeptide-1, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, niacinamide, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, palmitoyl tripeptide-8, panthenol, phytosphingosine

NiacinamideHeroEffect: HighIs proven to be effective in reducing blemishes, evening out skin tone and helping to improve lines and wrinkles. It helps the skin to repair sun damage, calm down inflammation and keep maintain good levels of moisture.

Concentration of 4-6% is better for helping with acne and balancing the sebum production~2.5–3.8%

What the product description says
“It helps firm and revitalize sagging skin, leaving it visibly lifted, radiant, and youthful.”
Source: Cosrx

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains acetyl glucosamine, adenosine, niacinamide.

These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl tetrapeptide-2, copper tripeptide-1, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, palmitoyl tripeptide-8.

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.
