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
glycerin	HIGH
hydroxypropyl tetrahydropyrantriol	HIGH
panthenol	HIGH

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	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
2	hydroxyethylcellulose	Used to thicken product formulations and create gel-like textures
3	pentylene glycol	Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture
4	sodium hyaluronate	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
5	madecassoside	An antioxidant that is typically derived from plant Centella Asiatica. It can help neutralize free radicals in skin and support skin barrier function. It could, however, itself be irritating
6	rosa centifolia extract
7	rosa centifolia flower extract	Contains essential oil. Can be irritating
8	, rosa meichibon/delgramaue callus,	The ingredient is not recognized
9	safflower glucoside
10	threonine	An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
11	sodium citrate	Helps to control the skin's pH level. Maintains the skin's natural film of amino-lactic acids and oils. Helps to preserve products
12	arginine	An amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin
13	serine	An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
14	2-oleamido-1,3-octadecanediol	Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and slow down the water loss over time
15	proline
16	alanine	An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might help to lighten the skin, but solid evidence is lacking
17	aminopropyl triethoxysilane
18	ascorbyl glucoside	A vitamin C derivative that is more stable but less potent than pure form of vitamin C. Has a potential to boost collagen production, nutralise free radicals and reduce hyperpigmentation, but the required concentration is likely to be much higher than for the pure form of vitamin C, limiting the ingredient's effectiveness in products
19	propanediol	Acts as a solvent for other ingredients. Speeds up the absorption of other ingredients into the skin
20	propylene glycol	Helps oil and water mix together and can enhance the penetration of other ingredients into the skin
21	hydroxypropyl tetrahydropyrantriol	A sugar-derived compound that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might be able to stimulate synthesis of skin's own moisturizing factors, but solid research is lacking. It could be irritating
22	citric acid	Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
23	xanthan gum	Used to create a thicker product consistency
24	panthenol	Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function
25	biotin	Might have some moisturising properties. Is not effective when applied topically beyond some moisturizing effect
26	glutamic acid	An amino-acid that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin
27	polysorbate 21
28	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
29	tocopheryl acetate	A more stable but less bio-available form of vitamin E compared to Tocopherol. Might help moisturize and protect the skin from free radicals, but mostly used in low concentrations to stabilize other ingredients.
30	phenoxyethanol	A preservative. It helps prevent bacterial growth in cosmetic products
