WIMJ summary for moisturizing

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, helianthus annuus seed oil.

Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
aleurites moluccanus seed oil	HIGH

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
heptyl undecylenate Helps soften the upper layer of the skin, reduce water loss from the skin surface over time and create a nice product finish	22% - 33%
caprylic/capric triglyceride A good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin	5.5% - 8.2%
jojoba esters An emollient made of jojoba oil. Helps soften the skin and support its barrier function	4.5% - 6.8%
simmondsia chinensis seed oil Softens the upper layer of skin and helps restore the healthy skin barrier. Has shown to help calm down inflammation in skin. It is a stable oil, meaning that it retains its properties even when exposed to air.	4% - 5.9%
camellia oleifera seed oil An emollient that does not leave a greasy finish	2.9% - 4.3%
dicaprylyl carbonate Helps products spread more easily and works as an emollient to soften skin	2.2% - 3.3%
ethylhexyl palmitate An emollient that helps soften the skin and create a nice product texture	1.7% - 2.5%
dextrin palmitate/hexyldecanoate	1.3% - 2%
squalane An oil naturally present in skin. Works as an emollient to soften the skin and form a protective layer on its surface without a greasy feeling.	1.3% - 1.9%
synthetic fluorphlogopite A mineral that is used to improve the texture of cosmetic products	0.9% - 1.4%
aleurites moluccanus seed oil Helps soften the upper layer of the skin	0.5% - 1.2%
tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C. It is more stable than ascorbic acid, but still degrades quickly and needs to be stabilized in a formulation with another ingredient. 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.	0.45% - 1.05%
eclipta prostrata extract A plant extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin. It can be irritating	0.4% - 0.95%
lavandula angustifolia oil An essential oil. Potential allergen and can be irritating. It has some anti-bacterial properties	0.35% - 0.85%
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.	0.35% - 0.8%
titanium dioxide Works as a UV filter when used in high concentrations. It is photostable and is effective mostly against the UVB light, with some protection in the UVA range. In small concentrations, used for its ability to improve the color of cosmetic products. Is usually well tolerated by the skin	0.45% - 1%
helianthus annuus seed oil A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function	0.4% - 0.9%
calcium sodium borosilicate Used to add shimmer	0.3% - 0.75%
melia azadirachta leaf extract A plant extract that has anti-bacterial properties. Can be used to preserve the product. Can be irritating	0.2% - 0.75%
melia azadirachta flower extract A plant extract that might be helpful to neutralize free radicals in skin	0.15% - 0.7%
coccinia indica fruit extract A plant extract that might have some anti-oxidant effect helping neutralize free radicals in skin	0.15% - 0.65%
rosmarinus officinalis leaf extract Can be helpful in reducing inflammation in skin. Is a likely irritant	0.15% - 0.55%
moringa oleifera seed oil A plant oil that helps soften the upper layer of the skin. Is unlikely to be helpful in restoring skin barrier function due to the low content of linoleic acid	0.2% - 0.8%
tocopherol Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself	0.15% - 0.55%
solanum melongena fruit extract Eggplant fruit extract. Might have some anti-oxidant effect	0.15% - 0.55%
aloe barbadensis flower extract A plant extract that might have some anti-oxidant effect	0.15% - 0.7%
tin oxide A colorant that can add a pearl-like appearance to the formulation	0.2% - 0.75%
curcuma longa root extract A plant extract that can contain an active compound curcumin, that may have some anti-inflammatory properties when applied to the skin, but solid research is lacking and the typical concentration used in skincare products is too low. Can be an irritant	0.1% - 0.3%
corallina officinalis extract Red algae extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might contain antioxidants	0.1% - 0.35%
ocimum sanctum leaf extract A plant extract that is rich in a fragrance compound eugenol that is a frequent allergen and can be irritating. It might also contain anti-oxidants to help neutralize free radicals	0.1% - 0.35%
