“Moisturizing: hydrates dry and rough skin.”
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:
glycerin, hydrolyzed collagen.
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: hydrolyzed collagen, bis-peg-18 methyl ether dimethyl silane.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol
“Brighten-Up: revitalizes skin with Vitamin C, leaving skin bright and clear.”
This product contains ingredients (prunus mume fruit extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.

Help improve the product's texture
More about Diphenylsiloxy phenyl trimethiconeA typically plant-derived compound that is supposed mimic human collagen. Cannot penetrate the skin barrier so is not particularly useful in skincare products beyond attracting water to the upper layer of the skin
More about Hydrolyzed collagenHelps oil and water mix together
More about Sorbitan isostearateCan be drying and contribute to skin irritation. Used in formulars to dissolve other ingredients, create a thinner product consistency or for its antibacterial properties
More about AlcoholHelps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function
More about PanthenolHelps oil and water mix together
More about Peg-60 hydrogenated castor oilOne of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
More about GlycerinA vitamin C derivative that is more stable but less potent than pure form of vitamin C. Has a potential to boost collagen production, nutralise free radicals and reduce hyperpigmentation, but the required concentration is likely to be much higher than for the pure form of vitamin C, limiting the ingredient's effectiveness in products
More about Ascorbyl glucosideA preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
More about PhenoxyethanolActs as a solvent for other ingredients. Speeds up the absorption of other ingredients into the skin
More about PropanediolCan work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
More about Citric acidAn aromatic blend of unspecified and possibly irritating ingredients
More about ParfumUsed to create a nice product texture
More about Glyceryl polymethacrylateAn exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)
More about Lactic acidA type of silicone that helps soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product texture
More about Bis-peg-18 methyl ether dimethyl silaneHelps dissolve other ingredients in the formulation
More about Diethoxyethyl succinateHelps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
More about CarbomerUsed to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin
More about Butylene glycolA common frangrance that can easily irritate skin, especially if exposed to air, light or heat
More about LimoneneA gelling agent that thickens the product consistency and leaves the skin with a velvety finish
More about Hydroxyethyl acrylate/sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymerOne of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
More about Sodium hyaluronatePure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
More about TocopherolA plant extract that might have an anti-oxidant effect and help even out skin tone, but solid evidence of effectiveness is lacking
