Product Summary
"DCL - Hydrating Treatment Mask" is effective for: Moisturizing
Ingredient callouts
- Ceramides (ceramide 2 0.75% - 1.10%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
- Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 1.10% - 1.30% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
- Humectants (urea 1.70% - 2.10%, trehalose 0.45% - 0.70%, sodium pca 0.45% - 0.70%, saccharide isomerate 2.60% - 3.10%, polyglutamic acid 0.30% - 0.55%, sodium hyaluronate 0.75% - 1.10%, glycerin 3.20% - 3.90%, betaine 1.40% - 1.70% and panthenol 1.10% - 1.30%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What does the product description say?
Hydrating Treatment Mask
Source: From product name
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:
betaine, glycerin.
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: chondrus crispus extract, squalane.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide 2, panthenol, urea
Naturally present in skin (urea makes up about 7% of natural moisturizing factors in skin). Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Also has a positive effect on the skin barrier beyond the humectant action. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients. Is an exfoliating ingredient when used in high concentrations

Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
High concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid provide an intense boost in hydration, as well as helping to plump the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Source: Face the future
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 - glycine soja seed extract - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.
