MoisturizingCarthamus tinctorius seed oil, Isododecane + 7 moreWorks
“Float On Soothing Facial Oil is a calming, lightweight facial oil that protects and rejuvenates your skin barrier for hydrated, softer, more nourished-looking skin.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: carthamus tinctorius seed oil, opuntia ficus-indica 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).
ExfoliationNo ingredient credited for this claimNot delivered
“This is the perfect follow-up to Bubble's Deep Dive Exfoliating Mask, but Float On is also great on its own!”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Phloretin, Carthamus tinctorius seed oilWorks well

Anti-agingSide benefit · PhloretinMay help
