Can the product deliver on its promises?

Promise

What does the product description say?

"The hydrating formula contains glycerin for a hit of moisture to nourish skin and reduce the appearance of fine dehydration lines."

WIMJ summary for anti-aging

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains palmitoyl hexapeptide-12.

These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: dipeptide-2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1.

Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
palmitoyl hexapeptide-12	HIGH

palmitoyl tripeptide-1	MEDIUM

WIMJ summary for moisturizing

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, glycine soja protein.

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: ceramide 2, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide 2, dipeptide-2, palmitoyl hexapeptide-12, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
ceramide 2	HIGH
glycerin	HIGH
palmitoyl hexapeptide-12	HIGH

WIMJ summary for evens skin tone

The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: chrysin, glycine soja protein.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
chrysin	MEDIUM
glycine soja protein	LOW
n-hydroxysuccinimide	LOW

See a mistake?

WIMJ summary for anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (superoxide dismutase) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).

The following ingredients - chrysin also can have an antioxidant effect, but there is less evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
superoxide dismutase	HIGH
chrysin	MEDIUM
hesperidin methyl chalcone	LOW

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
alcohol denat. Produces temporary toning effect. Can help dissolve other ingredients or preserve products	8.2% - 10.1%
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	4.3% - 5.2%
c12-15 alkyl benzoate Enhances the product texture and makes it more spreadable. Helps reduce water loss from the outer layer of skin. Extands the shelf life by preventing bacteria growth	3.1% - 3.8%
xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency	2.2% - 2.7%
hydrolyzed rice protein Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might have some anti-oxidant properties	1.8% - 2.2%
tribehenin Used to create a thicker product consistency and soften the upper layer of the skin	1.6% - 2%
butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin	1.4% - 1.7%
hesperidin methyl chalcone Might help neutralize free radicals in skin. Is claimed to be able to improve the appearance of undereye darkness but evidence is missing. Can be an allergen and cause irritation	1.1% - 1.3%
ceramide 2 A type of lipid similar to ceramides naturally present in skin. Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and supports the skin barrier function to keep it hydrated. Can help to prevent inflammation in skin	0.9% - 1.1%
glycine soja protein A plant extract that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and soften it. It might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. It might be somewhat helpful for evening out the skin tone. It might be able to support elastin production but solid research is lacking	0.6% - 0.9%
benzyl alcohol A preservative. Can be used to mask unpleasant smell. Can be irritating	0.4% - 0.65%
peg-10 phytosterol Helps oil and water mix together	0.45% - 0.65%
superoxide dismutase An antioxidant enzyme that is naturally present in skin. It can help support skin barrier function and reduce inflammation in skin.

The compound used in topical treatments and cosmetics are mimics of typically one of these natural variants	0.3% - 0.6%
steareth-20 Helps oil and water mix together	0.45% - 0.7%
carbomer Helps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations	0.3% - 0.55%
