This product contains acids (gluconolactone 1.10% - 1.70%). Their concentration is low, and they will not have a strong exfoliating effect. Instead, they work to support the skin natural acid mantle and to attract water (as humectants). PHAs (gluconolactone) especially are great for improving skin hydration. They might be even able to stimulate the production of skin's natural humectants and support the healthy skin microbiome.
Humectants (glycerin 0.35% - 0.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What does the product description say?

Honey — a humectant, which provides moisturizing benefits for hair and skin.

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, honey extract.

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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM
