MoisturizingOlea europaea fruit oil, Carthamus tinctorius seed oil + 12 moreWorks
“Camu camu, rose hips, acerola, tomatoes and other red-colored natural plants * 2 and emollient oils including jojoba oil and sunflower oil attract moisture.”
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:
algae extract, butylene glycol.
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: helianthus annuus seed oil, simmondsia chinensis seed oil.
Evens skin toneAscorbyl tetraisopalmitateMay help
“* 1 Suppresses the production of melanin and prevents spots and freckles * 2 Skin conditioning and moisturizing ingredients * 3 Oil-soluble vitamin C derivatives (Tetra 2-hexyldecanoate ascorbyl EX) * 4 Up to the basal layer.”

This product contains ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
