WIMJ summary for exfoliation

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: gluconolactone, glycolic acid, hydroxyethyl urea, salicylic acid.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
gluconolactone	HIGH
glycolic acid	HIGH
hydroxyethyl urea	HIGH

"Pedi Smooth Foot Cream"

From product name

WIMJ summary for moisturizing

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: hydroxyethyl urea.

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: butyrospermum parkii butter extract, dimethicone.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
hydroxyethyl urea	HIGH
jojoba esters	HIGH
theobroma cacao seed butter	HIGH

WIMJ summary for anti-aging

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains gluconolactone, glycolic acid.

Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
gluconolactone	HIGH
glycolic acid	HIGH

WIMJ summary for evens skin tone

This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: gluconolactone, glycolic acid, hydroxyethyl urea, salicylic acid

Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
gluconolactone	HIGH
glycolic acid	HIGH
salicylic acid	LOW

See a mistake?

WIMJ summary for anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (gluconolactone) 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.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
gluconolactone	MEDIUM
theobroma cacao seed butter	LOW
zingiber officinale root extract	LOW

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
gluconolactone A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals	5.6% - 6.8%
hydroxyethyl urea A derivative of urea, a compound that is naturally present in skin. Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients	4.1% - 5%
butyrospermum parkii butter extract A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals	3.2% - 3.9%
salicylic acid Used for skin exfoliation. It has an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effect, helps to unclog pores, prevent blemishes and speed up healing of the existing ones. Sometimes referred to as a BHA (beta-hydroxy acid)	2% - 2.4%
petrolatum One of the most effective and the most studied occlusive ingredients that creates a protective layer on top of the skin preventing moisture loss	1.9% - 2.4%
potassium hydroxide Used to adjust the pH level of products	1.6% - 2%
propanediol Acts as a solvent for other ingredients. Speeds up the absorption of other ingredients into the skin	1.4% - 1.8%
stearyl alcohol An emollient that helps soften the skin	1.3% - 1.5%
cetyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol that works to soften the skin and stabilize product formulations helping oil and water mix together	1.1% - 1.3%
ammonium lactate	0.65% - 1%
dimethicone A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish	0.65% - 0.95%
glyceryl stearate An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together	0.55% - 0.85%
steareth-21 Helps oil and water mix together	0.55% - 0.85%
glycolic acid An alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that helps to remove the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin reveling a more even, smoother complexation. It is also able to stimulate collagen production with long-term use. Could help to reduce pore congestion. It can be irritating to the skin. Apply sunscreen daily if using products with glycolic acid	0.45% - 0.65%
aloe barbadensis leaf juice Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin	0.4% - 0.65%
jojoba esters An emollient made of jojoba oil. Helps soften the skin and support its barrier function	0.45% - 0.65%
theobroma cacao seed butter Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and can be helpful in restoring the skin barrier function. Might have some anti-oxidant effect	0.35% - 0.65%
caprylyl methicone A type of silicone that helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product finish on the skin	0.3% - 0.55%
polyacrylate crosspolymer-6	0.3% - 0.55%
ppg-3 benzyl ether myristate	0.3% - 0.6%
citrus limon fruit extract Used as a fragrance. Can be irritating and cause photosensitivity	0.25% - 0.45%
citrus aurantium dulcis fruit extract A plant extract that is used as a fragrance. Can be irritating and lead to photosensitivity	0.25% - 0.4%
pyrus malus fruit extract Can have some moisturizing properties due to its sugar content	0.25% - 0.45%
saccharum officinarum extract Sugar extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin	0.2% - 0.4%
zingiber officinale root extract A plant extract that can contain an irritating essential oil. Might have some anti-oxidant effect, but evidence is lacking	0.2% - 0.35%
camellia sinensis leaf extract Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation	0.25% - 0.4%
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.	0.2% - 0.4%
magnesium ascorbyl phosphate A derivative of vitamin C that is more stable, but less bioavailable than the pure form of vitamin C. It does not penetrate the skin well, but has been shown to convert to pure vitamin C once in skin. It can be helpful in stimulating collagen production and lightening the skin tone, but the required concentration is likely to be very high	0.2% - 0.4%
panthenol Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function	0.2% - 0.35%
bisabolol An active component of chamomile plant that historically has been used to calm down irritated skin. A recent study shows that bisabolol indeed can have some anti-inflammatory effect on skin, even though conclusive data is lacking. Bisabolol has a sweet floral scent and can be added to products for its aromatic properties	0.15% - 0.3%
polyglyceryl-4 laurate/succinate Helps oil and water mix together	0.15% - 0.3%
stearamidopropyl pg-dimonium chloride phosphate	0.15% - 0.25%
phenoxyethanol A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products	0.15% - 0.25%
propylene glycol Helps oil and water mix together and can enhance the penetration of other ingredients into the skin. It can be irritating	0.1% - 0.2%
hydroxyethylcellulose Used to thicken product formulations and create gel-like textures	0.1% - 0.15%
parfum An aromatic blend of unspecified and possibly irritating ingredients	0.05% - 0.05%
