“Bal Masqué des Sorciers High-Tech Mask Lifting Moisturizing Plumping”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, sodium hyaluronate.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

Product summary
"Garancia - Bal Masqué des Sorciers High-Tech Mask Lifting Moisturizing Plumping" could be helpful for: Moisturizing, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.15% - 0.65%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
- Humectants (sucrose 0.15% - 0.50%, sodium hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.80% and glycerin 1.90% - 2.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Price
The product retails for 27.99$ in the United States and from 17.40£ up to 23.56£ in the United Kingdom.
