“Marshmallow root, rice bran, and licorice enhance brightness, while potent amino acids and antioxidants protect and hydrate.”
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.
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, jojoba esters.
“Peach evens under-eye circles, dark spots and acne scars on medium to light skin tones.”
This product contains ingredients (glycyrrhiza glabra root extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
“Green balances redness due to rosacea, capillaries and blemishes on deep-dark to light skin tones.”
Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low.
