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, hyaluronic 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: butyrospermum parkii butter, chondrus crispus extract.
BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII BUTTERRole: Key activeA great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals~0.5–0.75%
CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDERole: Under-dosedA good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin~0.6–0.9%
CHONDRUS CRISPUS EXTRACTRole: Key activeRed algae extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and create a nicer product consistency~0.2–0.4%
DIMETHICONERole: Key activeA 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~1–1.2%
ECHIUM PLANTAGINEUM SEED OILRole: Key activeA plant oil that because of its high content of alpha-linolenic acid help support skin barrier function and moisturize the skin~0.2–0.35%
ELAEIS GUINEENSIS BUTTERRole: Key activeA type of palm oil. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin~0.3–0.5%
GLYCERINRole: Key activeOne of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant~0.65–1%
HELIANTHUS ANNUUS SEED OILRole: Key activeA 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~0.25–0.45%
HELIANTHUS ANNUUS SEED OIL UNSAPONIFIABLESRole: Key activeA 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~0.25–0.5%
HYALURONIC ACIDRole: Key activeOne of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin. Naturally present in skin. Typically has large molecule size unless advertised otherwise on the product label. Helps support skin's barrier function and may help to reduce inflammation~4.8–5.9%
ISOPROPYL MYRISTATERole: Key activeAn emollient that helps soften the skin. Could be comedogenic~0.25–0.45%
RICINUS COMMUNIS SEED OILRole: Key activeA plant oil that can help soften the skin. It might be helpful in calming down inflammation, but solid research is lacking. Is often used in lip products to create the needed product consistency~28–35%
SODIUM HYALURONATERole: Key activeOne of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin~0.2–0.35%
TOCOPHEROLRole: Under-dosedPure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself~0.2–0.4%
ALPHA-GLUCAN OLIGOSACCHARIDERole: Key activeHelps attract water to the upper layer of the skin~0.2–0.4%
Anti-agingHYDROXYDECYL UBIQUINOYL DIPALMITOYL GLYCERATE at ~0.2–0.4% + 4 more curated activesGood evidence
HYDROXYDECYL UBIQUINOYL DIPALMITOYL GLYCERATE at ~0.2–0.4% + 4 more curated actives
This product contains hydroxydecyl ubiquinoyl dipalmitoyl glycerate. This ingredient 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.
RETINYL LINOLEATERole: Under-dosedAn ester of a retinoid and linoleic acid. Three steps removed from the bioactive form of retinoid, retinoic acid. Once converted to retinoic acid in skin, it can help reduce wrinkles, stimulate collagen production, even out skin tone and reduce blemishes. The concentrations used in cosmetic products are often not high enough to have a positive effect in skin.~0.2–0.4%
BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII BUTTERRole: Key activeA great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals~0.5–0.75%

Typically has large molecule size unless advertised otherwise on the product label. Helps support skin's barrier function and may help to reduce inflammation~4.8–5.9%
HYDROXYDECYL UBIQUINOYL DIPALMITOYL GLYCERATERole: Key activeIdebenone complex. Helps neutralize free radicals in skin~0.2–0.4%
TOCOPHEROLRole: Under-dosedPure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself~0.2–0.4%
