Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.05% - 0.25%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.05% - 0.15%, nonapeptide-1 0.05% - 0.15%, hexapeptide-9 0.05% - 0.15%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.05% - 0.25%, tripeptide-1 0.05% - 0.20%, myristoyl pentapeptide-17 0.05% - 0.10%, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.05% - 0.10%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.05% - 0.10% and copper tripeptide-1 0.05% - 0.10%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. They might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
- Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 1.20% - 1.80% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
- Humectants (hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.05% - 0.15%, hydrolyzed glycosaminoglycans 0.05% - 0.15%, acetyl octapeptide-3 0.05% - 0.15%, hexapeptide-9 0.05% - 0.15%, hydrolyzed collagen 0.05% - 0.20%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.05% - 0.10%, glycerin 0.05% - 0.20%, sodium hyaluronate 0.05% - 0.15%, alanine 0.05% - 0.20%, glycine 0.05% - 0.20%, glutamic acid 0.10% - 0.30%, aspartic acid 0.35% - 0.75%, arginine 0.45% - 1.05%, histidine 0.85% - 1.30% and panthenol 1.20% - 1.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

What does the product description say?
Delivers rich moisture with 7 kinds of hyaluronic acids.

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:
alanine, arginine.
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: arginine, hydrolyzed collagen.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, acetyl octapeptide-3, copper tripeptide-1, hexapeptide-9, myristoyl pentapeptide-17, nonapeptide-1, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, panthenol, tripeptide-1

A stable derivative of vitamin C. It is oil-soluble which means it is more likely to penetrate the skin compared to the pure form of vitamin C (which is water-soluble), but it is less bio-available and is way less effective in stimulating collagen and reducing wrinkles compared to the pure form of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and its other derivatives (for example, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate). At the same time, this vitamin C derivative has been shown in studies to be effective in reducing acne, blemishes and clogged pores. It is less irritating then the pure form of vitamin C
Anti-oxidation
