WIMJ summary for anti-aging

This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains retinol.

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.

WIMJ summary for evens skin tone

This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: retinol.

Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy

WIMJ summary for exfoliation

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: retinol.

retinol	HIGH
urea	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: betaine, glycerin.

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: helianthus annuus seed oil, glycine soja oil.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: urea

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
urea	HIGH
sodium hyaluronate	HIGH

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
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	7% - 8.6%
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	4.8% - 5.8%
urea Naturally present in skin (urea makes up about 7% of natural moisturizing factors in skin). Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Also has a positive effect on the skin barrier beyond the humectant action. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients. Is an exfoliating ingredient when used in high concentrations	3.5% - 4.2%
yeast amino acids	2.7% - 3.3%
trehalose A sugar that attracts water to the upper layer of the skin	2.2% - 2.7%
inositol	1.8% - 2.2%
taurine Could be helpful in reducing inflammation in skin, evening out the skin tone and neutralizing free radicals, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness	1.5% - 1.8%
betaine Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improves the product texture	1.2% - 1.5%
glycine soja extract	0.9% - 1.15%
prunus persica fruit extract A fruit extact. Might have some anti-oxidant properties	0.9% - 1.1%
passiflora edulis fruit extract	0.5% - 0.75%
agave tequilana leaf extract	0.5% - 0.75%
retinol Two steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, retinol is proven to be effective against all signs of aging. It improves skin cell turnover, helps fight blemishes and clogged pores, can regulate excess oil production and even skin tone. It can, however, be quite irritating	0.35% - 0.6%
retinyl palmitate Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect	0.3% - 0.55%
helianthus annuus seed oil A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function	0.4% - 0.6%
sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin	0.3% - 0.6%
hydroxyacetophenone Used to increase effectiveness of preservatives	0.3% - 0.55%
tocopherol Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself	0.25% - 0.5%
maltose	0.25% - 0.5%
lecithin Used mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin	0.3% - 0.55%
xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency	0.25% - 0.5%
1,2-hexanediol A preservative	0.25% - 0.5%
sodium polyacrylate Used to create a gel-like product texture, as well as to stabilize emulsions	0.3% - 0.55%
peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil Helps oil and water mix together	0.25% - 0.5%
sorbitan caprylate Helps oil and water mix together	0.25% - 0.45%
polysorbate 20 Helps oil and water mix together	0.25% - 0.45%
glycine soja oil A good emollient that helps soften the skin and helps repair its barrier function	0.2% - 0.35%
leuconostoc/radish root ferment filtrate A preservative that comes from radishes fermented by a bacteria. New research suggests that the preservation properties in the ingredient come from an ammonium salt that is not present naturally in radish root but used in its cultivation. Is problematic because the exact amount of the preservative agents is difficult to determine	0.15% - 0.3%
bht A preservative	0.1% - 0.2%
citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH	0.1% - 0.15%
phenethyl alcohol A fragrance. Can be irritating	0.1% - 0.15%
bha Helps preserve the product formulation	0.05% - 0.05%
