Ingredient callouts
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate in this product (2.00% - 3.00%) can also further help improve the skin barrier. It might be able to calm down inflammation and reduce sensitivity. Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is an active compound from the licorice root.
- In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.20% - 1.80%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
- Humectants (sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer 0.10% - 0.40%, hyaluronic acid 0.10% - 0.45%, sodium acetylated hyaluronate 0.15% - 0.50%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.15% - 0.60%, sodium hyaluronate 0.35% - 0.80%, allantoin 1.20% - 1.80%, dipotassium glycyrrhizate 2.00% - 3.00% and glycerin 2.80% - 4.20%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What does the product description say?
Delivers deep moisture to the skin and helps protect the skin from external aggressors. INGREDIENTS HOW TO USE 1.
Source: Lila Beauty
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": allantoin, dipotassium glycyrrhizate.
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).
