MoisturizingDimethicone, Glycerin + 5 moreWorks
“It firms, reduces redness, and strengthens skin by helping its barrier retain vital moisture for 24 hours of hydration.”
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, butylene glycol.
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, peg-10 dimethicone.
Anti-agingVitis vinifera seed extract, TocopherolMay help
“Light-diffusing mineral powder reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.”
This product contains vitis vinifera seed extract. There is some human evidence that this ingredient helps reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Vitis vinifera seed extract, Tocopheryl acetate + 1 moreWorks well
This product contains antioxidants (vitis vinifera seed extract) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
