Ingredient callouts
Peptides (dipeptide-8 0.05% - 0.15%). 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 (carnosine 1.20% - 1.80% and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 2.10% - 3.10%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Enriched with hyaluronic acid, it works to fully hydrate skin while providing anti-ageing benefits.Institut Esthederm Cellular Water Mist is an antioxidant-rich skincare product that helps to defend the skin against daily environmental stressors, including UV rays and pollution, which can cause premature ageing and a dull appearance to the skin.
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called
"humectants":
carnosine, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid.
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).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with
the hydration level: dipeptide-8
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin. A version of it is naturally present in skin
