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, trehalose.

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, caprylyl glycol.

Exfoliation
No ingredient credited for this claim
Not delivered
What the product description says
“Talks Vegan Squeeze Pocket Sleeping Mask Skin Fitness is an exfoliant night mask which is effective and very easy to use.”
Source: Ksisters

This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.

    This is a bit of a confusing product. It's 10mL, comes in resealable packaging, and the retail website I purchased this from mentioned that this product will last you around 3-4 uses. However, the actual packaging says this product is single use only. Obviously 10mL is way too much product for a single use for most people, so I'm guessing this is intended to last more than 1 use but the preservative system isn't strong enough to actually guarantee this stays okay past a single use. I found this kind of confusing and sketchy. I used the product up over 4 consecutive nights and didn't notice any changes in consistency, colour or smell (nor did I have any adverse reactions), however I really wouldn't recommend using something labeled "single use only" even for as long as I did.

    The product itself has a slightly thick gel-like consistency, feels quite nice on the skin, and even a thicker layer absorbed/dried up sufficiently to not feel sticky upon going to bed. My skin felt hydrated and smooth the next morning. I didn't notice any significant exfoliating effect, perhaps slight buffing at most.
