It can get the job done. Best in class ingredients detected

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
acetyl glucosamine	HIGH
tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate	HIGH
algae extract	LOW

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	water\aqua\eau	Plain old water
2	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
3	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
4	trisiloxane	A type of silicone. Used to improve product texture
5	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
6	ammonium acryloyldimethyltaurate/vp copolymer	Increases thickness of a product. Texture enhancer for oil-in-water emulsions
7	trehalose	A sugar that attracts water to the upper layer of the skin
8	sucrose	Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In crystal form, it can work as a gentle exfoliant, gentler than the salt scrub. Helps stabilize the emulsion
9	algae extract	Plant extract that helps the skin to attract water and make it more smooth for touch. Also shows promise of anti-aging properties, but research is not extensive yet
10	cucumis sativus fruit extract	Might be somewhat helpful in reducing hyperpigmentation and neutralizing free radicals but its typical concentration in a product is too low for having an effect
11	ascophyllum nodosum extract	Brown seaweed extract. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some antioxidant effect
12	asparagopsis armata extract	Red seaweed extract. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might have some antioxidant effect
13	ergothioneine	Can help neutralize free radicals in skin. Preliminary studies show that it can be more effective than coenzyme Q10 but studies on effective concentration for topical applications are lacking
14	thermus thermophillus ferment	Might be helpful in neutralising free radicals in skin and have some hydration properties
15	dipotassium glycyrrhizate	A salt derived from licorice. Works as an emollient to soften the upper layer of the skin and can help calm down inflammation. Might be helpful for skin lightening
16	sodium hyaluronate	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
17	caffeine	Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. Can have a dehydration effect that might somewhat decrease the look of puffy eyes
18	artemia extract	Zooplankton extract that can attract water to the upper level of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant effect
19	acetyl glucosamine	An effective moisturizing ingredient that also has been shown to be effective in evening out the skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation. It can help somewhat reduce wrinkles in skin
20	palmaria palmata extract	Red algae extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
21	hydrolyzed rice extract	A plant extract that is claimed to be helpful in moisturizing and lightening the skin, but evidence is missing
22	lauryl pca	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
23	oleth-10	Helps oil and water mix together
24	lauryl peg-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone	A type of silicone that helps to soften upper layer of the skin and create a nice product texture
25	sorbitol	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture
26	sodium pca	Naturally present in skin and helps to attract water to its upper layer
27	urea	Naturally present in skin. Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients. Is an exfoliating ingredient when used in high concentrations
28	tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate	Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C, it is more stable. It is claimed to penetrate skin better than pure vitamin C and have the the similar benefits, but solid studies of its effectiveness are lacking. Is likely to require a higher concentration in a product than pure vitamin C to be effective.
29	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.
30	carbomer	Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
31	citric acid	Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
32	polyquaternium-51	An emollient that helps create a nice silky finish on the skin
33	ethylbisiminomethylguaiacol manganese chloride	A potent anti-oxidant that can help neutralize free radicals in skin and protect from harmful effects of sun exposure, even though more studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness in topical applications
34	potassium sorbate	A preservative
35	cyclodextrin	A type of sugar that is used to support delivery of active ingredients and can enhance their penetration into the skin without disrupting the skin's barrier
36	tromethamine	Helps adjust pH in products
37	disodium edta	Stabilizes the product formulation
38	bht	A preservative
39	phenoxyethanol	A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
