MoisturizingGlycerin, Dimethicone + 16 moreWorks
“Formulated with Torricelumn™ to help create an “anti, dehydration shield” by boosting skin’s hydration levels.”
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:
anhydroxylitol, glycerin.
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, dimethicone.
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Camellia oleifera leaf extract, Glutathione + 4 moreWorks well
This product contains antioxidants (camellia oleifera leaf extract, glutathione) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
Evens skin toneNot advertised by the brand · Glutathione, Ascorbic acidWorks well
This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: glutathione
Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.
Anti-agingNot advertised by the brand · Laminaria digitata extract, Aloe barbadensis leaf juice + 1 moreMay help
This product contains camellia oleifera leaf extract, glutathione. These ingredients help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they might be able to prevent early signs of aging (like fine lines and wrinkles), at least to some extent. These ingredients will not be able to "reverse" signs of aging.

This product could be helpful for: Moisturizing and Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts

In this concentration (1.50% - 1.80%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
- Humectants (anhydroxylitol 0.25% - 0.45%, xylitylglucoside 0.30% - 0.55%, sodium hyaluronate 1.10% - 1.40% and glycerin 5.00% - 6.20%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
