Ingredient callouts

Peptides (copper tripeptide-1 0.05% - 0.25%). 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.
Adenosine 0.10% - 0.45%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 3.00% - 4.50% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
Humectants (citrulline 0.10% - 0.35%, glutamic acid 0.05% - 0.25%, aspartic acid 0.05% - 0.25%, histidine 0.05% - 0.25%, alanine 0.05% - 0.25%, glycine 0.05% - 0.25%, urea 0.05% - 0.25%, sucrose 0.05% - 0.20%, magnesium pca 0.05% - 0.20%, sodium hyaluronate 0.10% - 0.35%, betaine 1.30% - 2.00%, panthenol 3.00% - 4.50% and glycerin 22.00% - 33.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Promise: Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

A moisturizing toner to renew and purify skin condition to smooth and radiant skin.

Source: Yesstyle

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": alanine, aspartic acid.

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: copper tripeptide-1, panthenol, urea

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
copper tripeptide-1	HIGH
cysteine	HIGH
sodium hyaluronate	HIGH

Other benefit: Anti-aging

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

These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: aspartic acid, copper tripeptide-1, lysine, serine, threonine.

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.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
adenosine	HIGH
lysine	MEDIUM
aspartic acid	MEDIUM

Other benefit: Evens skin tone

The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: alanine, arbutin, cysteine.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
arbutin	MEDIUM
cysteine	LOW
alanine	LOW

Other benefit: Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (arbutin, camellia japonica flower extract, cysteine) 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.
