Ingredient callouts

Adenosine 0.05% - 0.25%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
Humectants (hydrolyzed collagen 0.15% - 0.55%, sodium hyaluronate 0.30% - 0.70%, betaine 0.50% - 1.20% and glycerin 4.40% - 6.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What can the product work for?

Evens skin tone

What does the product description say?

A nourishing essence enriched with Bulgarian Rose Oil and Arbutin to even out skin tone.

Source: Yesstyle

The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: arbutin, glycine soja seed extract, glycyrrhiza glabra root extract.

arbutin 3.7% - 5.6%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Beta-arbutin. Can help to reduce hyperpigmentation and has an anti-oxidant effect when used in high enough concentration. Is less effective compared to alpha-arbutin

glycine soja seed extract 0.1% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

An emollient that helps soften the skin. Might be somewhat helpful in evening the skin tone.

glycyrrhiza glabra root extract 0.1% - 0.3%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that can help lighten the skin and calm down inflammation. Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals

Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

Intensive Multiple Essence

Source: From product name

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: betaine, glycerin.

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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, hydrolyzed collagen.

caprylic/capric triglyceride 2.2% - 3.2%

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

sodium hyaluronate 0.3% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin

glycerin 4.4% - 6.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

Anti-aging

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.

Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

adenosine 0.05% - 0.25%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Might help improve cell turnover and reduce inflammation in skin. One study shows that the ingredients might be able to help reduce dynamic wrinkles (for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead)

glycine soja seed extract 0.1% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

An emollient that helps soften the skin. Might be somewhat helpful in evening the skin tone.

tocopherol 0.15% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

Pure 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

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (arbutin) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.

arbutin 3.7% - 5.6%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Beta-arbutin. Can help to reduce hyperpigmentation and has an anti-oxidant effect when used in high enough concentration. Is less effective compared to alpha-arbutin

adenosine 0.05% - 0.25%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

glycine soja seed extract 0.1% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

An emollient that helps soften the skin. Might be somewhat helpful in evening the skin tone.
