“Anti-aging properties Antioxidant effects Hypoallergenic Formulated without tar dyes, artificial fragrances, paraben, mineral oils, or TEA”
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, folic acid, 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.
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:
alanine, aminobutyric acid.
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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, helianthus annuus seed oil.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol
This product contains antioxidants (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.

Filter by role to see what each ingredient is doing.
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
More about GlycerinHelps to dissolve other ingredients in a formulation. Slows down the rate of product drying
More about Dipropylene glycolA good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin
More about Caprylic/capric triglyceridePlant oil from nuts that helps soften the upper layer of the skin. Contains a high concentration of oleic acid that can weaken skin's barrier function and increase water-loss while enhancing penetration of other ingredients
More about Macadamia ternifolia seed oilHelps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function
More about PanthenolAn oil naturally present in skin. Works as an emollient to soften the skin and form a protective layer on its surface without a greasy feeling.
More about SqualaneHelps to retain moisture by creating a protective barrier on the skin. Rich in fatty acids. Improves product texture and helps with the penetration of other ingredients.
More about Hydrogenated lecithinA great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function
More about Helianthus annuus seed oilAn emollient that helps soften the skin but is not effective for restoring its barrier function. Might be helpful to calm down inflammation
More about Olea europaea fruit oilMaintains the texture of skincare products. Allows the product to spread evenly. Helps oil and water mix together
More about Acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymerHelps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
More about CarbomerUsed to create a thicker product consistency
More about Xanthan gumHelps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture
More about BetaineA salt derived from licorice. Works as an emollient to soften the upper layer of the skin and can help calm down inflammation. Might be helpful for skin lightening
More about Dipotassium glycyrrhizateMight 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)
More about AdenosineA non-drying alcohol that helps stabilize product formulations
More about C14-22 alcoholsHelps water and oil mix together
More about C12-20 alkyl glucosideAn amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
More about ThreonineHelps support skin barrier function improving skin hydration and reducing sensitivity
More about Calcium pantothenateAn amino acid that can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and support skin's barrier function
More about IsoleucineAn amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin
More about ArginineAn amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might help to lighten the skin, but solid evidence is lacking
More about AlanineAn amino-acid that helps increase skin hydration and might help to slightly improve skin firmness, potentially reducing lines and wrinkles
More about Aspartic acidHas been shown to support wound healing and skin barrier function when used topically in rats. Is likely to be effective in supporting skin's hydration and barrier function, but research for human skin is missing. Might have some anti-aging properties but the research is missing
More about Aminobutyric acidCan work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
More about Citric acidMight help neutralize free radicals in skin and might be helpful against hyperpigmentation
More about CysteineAn amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
More about SerineMight have some moisturising properties. Is not effective when applied topically beyond some moisturizing effect
More about BiotinAn amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
More about LysineA form of vitamin B3. It is similar in action to niacinamide, but is more likely to cause red flashes in skin as the side effect
More about NiacinAn amino-acid that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
More about Glutamic acidHelps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help restore the skin barrier function
More about GlycineHelps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Could be helpful in restoring the skin barrier function
More about GlucoseCan help stimulate collagen production in skin. While available studies are promising, more research is needed to confirm the efficacy in skin
More about Folic acidIs 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. The concentration of about 2% is effective for supporting the skin barrier and evening out the skin tone. Concentration of 4-6% is better for helping with acne and balancing the sebum production
More about NiacinamideMight help neutralize free radicals in skin
More about Pyridoxine hclA salt of an amino-acid that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might be helpful in restoring the skin barrier function
More about Histidine hclAn amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin
More about Arginine hclUsed to stabilize mixtures of oil and water, and create thicker, gel-like product textures
More about Sodium chlorideHelps create a thicker product consistency. Might be irritating
More about Calcium chlorideCan help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Is studied as a mosquito repellent
More about Thiamine hclAn aromatic blend of unspecified and possibly irritating ingredients
