Peptides (trifluoroacetyl tripeptide-2 0.15% - 0.30%, acetyl tetrapeptide-2 0.20% - 0.35% and acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 0.20% - 0.40%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
Humectants (dextran 0.20% - 0.35%, biosaccharide gum-1 0.20% - 0.35% and glycerin 5.10% - 6.30%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

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: biosaccharide gum-1, dextran.

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, caprylic/capric triglyceride.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester, acetyl tetrapeptide-2, trifluoroacetyl tripeptide-2

caprylic/capric triglyceride 3.1% - 3.8%

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

dextran 0.2% - 0.35%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps attract water to the most upper layer of the skin. Derived from sugar

dimethicone 4.1% - 5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

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

Key Actives

camellia sinensis leaf extract 0.2% - 0.4%

Irritation risk:

Works for: Antibacterial, Anti-oxidation, Anti-aging, Moisturizing, Evens skin tone, Anti-blemish

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

acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 0.2% - 0.4%

Irritation risk:

Works for: Anti-inflammatory, Moisturizing, Reduces irritation, Anti-aging

A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
