What does the product description say?

"Rehydrating Liposome Day Crème"

From product name

WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

Yes. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin and then "seal it in", keeping skin hydrated over time

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
phytosterols	HIGH
glycerin	HIGH
dimethicone	HIGH

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	water (aqua	Plain old water
2	caprylic/ capric triglyceride	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
3	c12-20 acid peg-8 ester	Helps oil and water mix together
4	glycerin	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
5	dimethicone	A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish
6	tocopherol	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
7	coco-caprylate/caprate	Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin without creating a greasy texture
8	beeswax	Forms a protective barrier that holds water and keeps dry skin hydrated. Keeps an emulsion from separating into its oil and liquid components, and increases the thickness of a product. Can be an allergen
9	phenoxyethanol	A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
10	potassium cetyl phosphate	Helps oil and water mix together
11	saccharide isomerate	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
12	butyrospermum parkii (shea butter)	A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals
13	carbomer	Helps create a gel-like product texture. Can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
14	nylon-12	Used to create a nice product consistency
15	ethylhexylglycerin	A preservative
16	sodium hydroxide	Used to adjust the product's pH
17	aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut) seed extract	Plant extract. Might have some anti-oxidant properties. Can be irritating
18	diisobutyl adipate	Used to improve the product consistency
19	disodium edta	Stabilizes the product formulation
20	xanthan gum	Used to create a thicker product consistency
21	bisabolol	An active component of chamomile plant that historically has been used to calm down irritated skin. A recent study shows that bisabolol indeed can have some anti-inflammatory effect on skin, even though conclusive data is lacking. Bisabolol has a sweet floral scent and can be added to products for its aromatic properties
22	alcohol	Can be drying and contribute to skin irritation. Used in formulars to dissolve other ingredients, create a thinner product consistency or for its antibacterial properties
23	peg-8	Used to create a nice product consistency
24	phospholipids	Emollients that are naturaly present in skin. In addition, they help water and oil mix together in the product
25	ruscus aculeatus root extract
26	panax ginseng root extract	A plant extract that might have some anti-inflammatory properties, but solid evidence is lacking. It can be irritating
27	citric acid	Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
28	citrus aurantium amara (bitter orange) flower oil	Used as a fragrance. Can be irritating
29	parfum (fragrance	An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients
30	linalool	A fragrance. Can be irritating
31	glycyrrhetinic acid	Active compound of licorice root. Works to calm down inflammation, as an anti-oxidant, and might be helpful in lightening the skin and reducing hyperpigmentation
32	sambucus nigra flower extract	A plant extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin
33	sodium hyaluronate	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
34	limonene	A common frangrance that can easily irritate skin, especially if exposed to air, light or heat
35	tocotrienols	A type of vitamin E that is more powerful in neutralizing free radicals compared to its other forms
36	elaeis guineensis (palm) oil	Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
37	ascorbyl palmitate	Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C, it is more stable and can penetrate the skin better than L-Ascorbic acid. It is effective in protecting the skin from free radicals, as well as evening the skin tone, but is less effective in stimulating collagen production compared to L-Ascorbic acid.
38	squalene	An oil that is naturally part of skin sebum that helps to soften its upper layer, reduce water loss and neutralize free radicals. It might be comedogenic. Avoid applying large concentrations (or pure oil) before sun exposure as oxidized squalene can clog pores and lead to skin irritation. Today squalene is mostly derived from vegetable oils or synthetized by yeast
39	ascorbic acid	One of the few well researched potent anti-aging ingredients. When it is able to penetrate the skin in an active state, it is effective against fine lines and wrinkles, helps improve skin elasticity and reduce hyperpigmentation. It acts as a powerful anti-oxidant and stimulates collagen production. The main issue with ascorbic acid is that it is highly unstable, in other words, it is losing its effectivenss quickly when exposed to air and light (if a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active). In addition, it is water-soluble, meaning that it has difficulty pentrating the skin. It is also quite irritating, and can cause stinging. When used in low concentrations, helps stabilize the product formulation
40	sodium benzoate	A preservative
41	phytosterols	Lipids that work as an emollient and can be helpful in repairing skin barrier function
42	potassium sorbate	A preservative
