Product Summary
"MediFlower - Aqua-Mask - 3 Types" is effective for: Moisturizing
This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging and Evens skin tone, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (acetyl hexapeptide-8 1.70% - 2.60%). 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.
- In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.10% - 1.60%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
- Humectants (snail secretion filtrate 0.50% - 1.10%, hydrolyzed collagen 1.10% - 1.60%, allantoin 1.10% - 1.60%, sodium hyaluronate 1.50% - 2.20% and acetyl hexapeptide-8 1.70% - 2.60%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Blemish Master Consists of Portulaca Oleracea Powder, Houttuynia Cordata extract and charcoal that moisturize and cleanse irritated skin. How to use 1.

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:
allantoin, hydrolyzed collagen.
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: 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
