KLAVUU Special Care Face Treatment Oil
Works for
MoisturizingHelianthus annuus seed oil, Caprylic/capric triglyceride + 7 moreWorks
“Blended with 6 types of oil including Korean Pearl Oil Extract, Jojoba Seed Oil, Sunflower Seed Oil and Argan Oil for intense nourishment.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, helianthus annuus seed oil.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Tocopheryl linoleate, Argania spinosa kernel oil + 2 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (tocopheryl linoleate) 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.

I loved this oil, seems to be discontinued now unfortunately. Quite lightweight for an oil, and though I usually use face oils after or mixed into my moisturizer, I actually preferred to use this underneath. I'd wake up to the softest, most supple feeling skin in the morning.
