Kiehl's Turmeric and Cranberry Seed Energising Radiance Masque
Works for
MoisturizingSimmondsia chinensis seed oil, Glycerin + 6 moreWorks
“Rich in cranberry extract, an antioxidant super berry that’s rich in resveratrol, your skin will be revived, nourished and re-energised.”
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, butylene glycol.
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: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, vaccinium macrocarpon seed oil.
ExfoliationNo ingredient credited for this claimNot delivered
“Formulated with cranberry & turmeric, this invigorating formulation helps to visibly even the look of skin tone while crushed cranberry seeds gently exfoliate for smoother, brighter, illuminated-looking skin.”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
Evens skin toneAscorbyl glucoside ~0.1–0.45%Under-dosed

Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Camellia oleifera leaf extract, Vaccinium macrocarpon seed oil + 2 moreWorks well
This product contains antioxidants (camellia oleifera leaf extract) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
The following ingredients - epilobium angustifolium flower/leaf/stem extract, vaccinium macrocarpon seed oil also can have an antioxidant effect, but there is less evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin.
Anti-agingSide benefit · Ascorbyl glucosideMay help
This product contains camellia oleifera leaf extract. This ingredient help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they might be able to prevent early signs of aging (like fine lines and wrinkles), at least to some extent. These ingredients will not be able to "reverse" signs of aging.
