WIMJ summary for anti-aging

This product contains saccharomyces polypeptides, vitis vinifera seed extract. These ingredients might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

"Hydro Biotic Recovery Sleeping Mask"

From product name

WIMJ summary for moisturizing

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: glycerin, honey.

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: dimethicone, peg-10 dimethicone.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: saccharomyces polypeptides

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
peg-10 dimethicone	HIGH
cetylhydroxyproline palmitamide	HIGH
inulin	HIGH

WIMJ summary for anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (vitis vinifera seed extract) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
vitis vinifera seed extract	HIGH
lactococcus ferment lysate	LOW
camellia sinensis leaf extract	MEDIUM

Potential irritants

IRRITANCY

MEDIUM

Ingredient	Irritancy	Skin Benefit
sea salt
dimethicone/peg-10/15 crosspolymer
1,2-hexanediol

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
dimethicone A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish	6.2% - 7.5%
propanediol Acts as a solvent for other ingredients. Speeds up the absorption of other ingredients into the skin	4.2% - 5.1%
glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant	3.1% - 3.8%
sea salt Used to thicken the product formulation and might help to add minerals to the surface of the skin. It is used in scrubs as a physical exfoliant. Can increase sensitivity to other ingredients if left on the skin or used in high concentration	2.3% - 2.8%
dimethicone/peg-10/15 crosspolymer Helps oil and water mix together	1.8% - 2.2%
lactococcus ferment lysate Consists of remains of dead bacteria cells. Is likely helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin. Might be helpful in reducing inflammation and neutralizing free radicals in skin	1.6% - 2%
hexyldecanol Helps soften the upper layer of the skin	1.4% - 1.8%
inulin Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Is claimed to support the growth of "good" bacteria in skin (as a "prebiotic"), but the research is lacking	1.1% - 1.4%
1,2-hexanediol A preservative	0.7% - 1.05%
sodium benzoate A preservative	0.25% - 0.5%
yogurt powder	0.55% - 0.85%
peg-10 dimethicone A silicone that works to soften the upper layer of the skin and reduce its water loss	0.55% - 0.85%
butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin	0.45% - 0.7%
tamarindus indica seed polysaccharide	0.45% - 0.65%
sodium citrate Helps to control the skin's pH level. Maintains the skin's natural film of amino-lactic acids and oils. Helps to preserve products	0.45% - 0.65%
caprylhydroxamic acid A preservative	0.4% - 0.65%
tocopheryl acetate A more stable but less bio-available form of vitamin E compared to Tocopherol. Might help moisturize and protect the skin from free radicals, but mostly used in low concentrations to stabilize other ingredients.	0.4% - 0.6%
lavandula angustifolia oil An essential oil. Potential allergen and can be irritating. It has some anti-bacterial properties	0.3% - 0.55%
trisodium ethylenediamine disuccinate Used to improve stability of the formulation	0.3% - 0.55%
bisabolol An active component of chamomile plant that historically has been used to calm down irritated skin. A recent study shows that bisabolol indeed can have some anti-inflammatory effect on skin, even though conclusive data is lacking. Bisabolol has a sweet floral scent and can be added to products for its aromatic properties	0.25% - 0.5%
cetylhydroxyproline palmitamide A type of lipid similar to ceramides naturally present in skin. Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and supports the skin barrier function to keep it hydrated. Can help to prevent inflammation in skin	0.3% - 0.55%
stearic acid Helps oil and water mix together and works as an emollient	0.4% - 0.6%
honey Helps attract water to the skin and might have some anti-bacterial properties. Can be an allergen	0.25% - 0.4%
brassica campestris sterols Help soften the upper layer of the skin	0.25% - 0.5%
rosa damascena flower oil Used as a fragrance. Can be irritating	0.2% - 0.4%
camellia sinensis leaf extract Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation	0.2% - 0.4%
phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products	0.2% - 0.35%
vitis vinifera seed extract A plant extract that contains resveratrol and other anti-oxidant compounds that can help neutralize free radicals, reduce inflammation in skin and even out its tone. Can be also used to stabilize the product formulation	0.2% - 0.35%
boswellia serrata extract	0.15% - 0.25%
honey extract Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin	0.15% - 0.25%
chlorophyllin-copper complex	0.1% - 0.2%
aspalathus linearis extract	0.1% - 0.15%
saccharomyces polypeptides	0.05% - 0.15%
