MoisturizingPanthenol, Helianthus annuus seed oil + 14 moreStrong evidence
“It’s an outstanding daily moisturizer with healing properties that make it great for use after cosmetic procedures.”
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:
panthenol, aloe barbadensis leaf juice.
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: cera alba, cocos nucifera oil.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol
Anti-agingCentella asiatica extract, Aloe barbadensis leaf juiceModerate evidence

Evens skin toneNo ingredient credited for this claimNo evidence
“Its nourishing properties block free radicals, fade sun spots, and prevent discoloration while locking in moisture.”
Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Centella asiatica extract, Borago officinalis seed oil + 4 moreModerate evidence
This product contains antioxidants (centella asiatica 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.
