“Lifting, Firming and Define Reduce Damaging Effect of Free Radicals Regenerate Skin Cell Reduce Redness, Lines and Wrinkles Collagen Booster Improve Skin Elasticity and Reveal Youthful Skin Deeply Nourishing and Intensely Hydrating Main Ingredients.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": betaine, glutamic 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).

“Lifting, Firming and Define Reduce Damaging Effect of Free Radicals Regenerate Skin Cell Reduce Redness, Lines and Wrinkles Collagen Booster Improve Skin Elasticity and Reveal Youthful Skin Deeply Nourishing and Intensely Hydrating Main Ingredients.”
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.This ingredient - hyaluronic acid - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.
This ingredient ginkgo biloba leaf extract might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · 3 ingredients credited for this claimModerate support
This product contains antioxidants (ginkgo biloba leaf extract) 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.
