Etude House Rosewater Mist with Witch Hazel
Works for
MoisturizingGlycerin, Simmondsia chinensis seed extract + 4 moreWorks
“A refreshing and alcohol-free hydrating toner mist powered by Rosewater and Witch Hazel that delivers a dewy, healthy-looking complexion.”
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, butylene glycol.
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: simmondsia chinensis seed extract, caprylyl glycol.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Epilobium angustifolium flower/leaf/stem extract, Rosa damascena flower water + 2 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (epilobium angustifolium flower/leaf/stem 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.
