Product Summary
"Neutrogena - Moisturesmooth Color Stick, 80 Rich Raisin" is a well-rounded moisturizing product.
Ingredient callouts
- This moistruizer also contains peptides (palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.35% - 0.80%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of peptides is, but it is very likely that peptides in skincare are helpful. They might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.

What does the product description say?
Moisturesmooth Color Stick, 80 Rich Raisin
Source: From product name
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: copernicia cerifera wax, myristyl myristate.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: palmitoyl oligopeptide, petrolatum
Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant effect
A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and create a nice product consistency
An emollient. Is not recommended for acne-prone skin as it can be comedogenic
A type of silicone that can decrease loss of moisture from the skin surface. It helps create a nice product texture
One of the most effective and the most studied occlusive ingredients that creates a protective layer on top of the skin preventing moisture loss
An emollient that helps soften the skin and create a nice product texture
Used to create a thicker product consistency and soften the upper layer of the skin
Used to improve the product consistency and soften the upper layer of the skin
Used to create a nice product consistency while softening the upper layer of the skin
A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals
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)
Anti-aging
This product contains palmitoyl oligopeptide. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
