L'Oréal Paris Triple Power Concentrated Serum Treatment
Works for
ExfoliationCapryloyl salicylic acidWorks well
“3. Resurface”
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: capryloyl salicylic acid.
MoisturizingDimethicone, Glycerin + 10 moreWorks
“Wrinkles can appear visibly reduced and skin texture can appear smoother thanks to this hydrating anti-aging face serum.”
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, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid.
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: dimethicone, c12-15 alkyl benzoate.
Evens skin toneCapryloyl salicylic acidMay help
“The serum, which has LHA and Pro-Xylane, a patented L'Oreal ingredient, helps address wrinkles and even skin tone.”
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: capryloyl salicylic acid.
