Ingredient callouts
- Humectants (glycerin 3.10% - 4.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
With caviar lime fruit extract and citric acid to gently exfoliate, and organic aloe vera and glycerine to hydrate, skin is left soft, smooth, and even with a radiant glow, naturally.

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin.
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).
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin
A great emollient. Contains vitamin E (tocopherol) which may give it some anti-oxidant properties. Can contain volatile compounds and can be irritating
Evens skin tone
What does the product description say?
Gentle and effective, even for sensitive skin, this daily resurfacing treatment with organic wild rosehip seed oil reveals brighter, more even-looking skin instantly.

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Renews and refines Caviar lime fruit extract and citric acid gently exfoliate by breaking down the bonds that hold dead skin cells to the skin’s surface, revealing brighter, smoother skin.
Source: Allbeauty
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.
