MoisturizingHelianthus annuus seed oil, Simmondsia chinensis seed oil + 10 moreWorks
“This soothing moisturizer is thoughtfully crafted to calm, replenish, and protect dry, sensitive, delicate, and reactive skin with a nourishing blend of hand-pressed argan, jojoba, and carrot seed oils, leaving the complexion soft, supple, and beautifully balanced.”
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, 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: butyrospermum parkii butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Camellia sinensis leaf extract, Butyrospermum parkii butter + 8 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (camellia sinensis leaf 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.
