Moisturizing11 ingredients credited for this claimStrong support
“Think lips that are soft, supple, hydrated, soothed and calmed.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: helianthus annuus seed wax, linolenic acid.
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).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: linoleic acid
Anti-aging1 ingredient credited for this claimLimited support
“The perfect comfort for sensitive skin, acai and pomegranate sterols also lend antioxidant protection against free radicals and premature ageing.”
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.
