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: sucrose.

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, copernicia cerifera wax.

caprylic/capric triglyceride 4.6% - 6.9%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

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

sucrose 0.2% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In crystal form, it can work as a gentle exfoliant, gentler than the salt scrub. Helps stabilize the emulsion

copernicia cerifera wax 0.3% - 0.75%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product consistency

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (tartaric acid) 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.

tartaric acid 0.1% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An AHA (alpha-hydroxy acid). It oxidizes quickly which makes it less effective in skincare formulations. It can support skin's barrier and moisture levels

viola tricolor extract 0.1% - 0.45%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that might have an anti-inflammatory effect in skin

hibiscus sabdariffa flower extract 0.15% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that can be irritating. It might contain a compound anthocyanin that could be helpful in neutralizing free radicals

Exfoliation

What does the product description say?

Coconut flower sugar hydrates and provides physical exfoliation to gently remove dead skin, while coconut oil moisturizes—preventing further dryness and flaking.
