“Moisture Bomb 3 in 1 Day Cream Moisturiser”
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, sodium hyaluronate.
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: dimethicone, caprylyl glycol.
Anti-agingPhyllanthus emblica fruit extract, Tocopherol + 1 moreNot delivered
“24 hour continuous hydration The skin feels smoother (89% of women agree) Wrinkles appear reduced, the skin is radiant and looks healthier (93% of women agree) *Self-evaluation.”
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.
This ingredient punica granatum extract might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.
ExfoliationSide benefit · Capryloyl salicylic acidWorks well
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: capryloyl salicylic acid.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Punica granatum extract, Punica granatum fruit extract + 3 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (punica granatum 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.
Evens skin toneSide benefit · Capryloyl salicylic acid, Phenylethyl resorcinol + 3 moreMay help
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: capryloyl salicylic acid, phenylethyl resorcinol, punica granatum extract.
