Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

Containing the world's highest natural concentration of Vitamin C, promoting collagen stimulation, scavenge free radicals, improving skin elasticity and the appearance of pigmentation.

Source: Content

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, sodium hyaluronate.

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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

glycerin 3.5% - 5.3%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

sodium hyaluronate 1% - 1.6%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin

sucrose 0.3% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In crystal form, it can work as a gentle exfoliant, gentler than the salt scrub. Helps stabilize the emulsion

Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

Containing the world's highest natural concentration of Vitamin C, promoting collagen stimulation, scavenge free radicals, improving skin elasticity and the appearance of pigmentation.

Source: Content

Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low.

lactic acid 0.2% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)

Exfoliation

What does the product description say?

Found in grape-like clusters in the Australian rainforest, known to be anti-inflammatory, skin-strengthening, pore cleansing and behaving like a natural AHA, delicately exfoliating and promoting cell regeneration.

Source: Content

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.
