MoisturizingIsocetyl stearate, Squalane + 18 moreGood evidence
“Squalane, an olive derivative, delivers lasting hydration for soft, supple skin.”
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, ethylhexyl hydroxystearate.
Evens skin toneGlycyrrhiza glabra root extract, Morus alba bark extract + 1 moreLimited evidence
“A brightening complex containing Licorice, Mulberry and Bearberry extracts plus Luna-B White helps reducehyperpigmentation and imperfections.”
This product contains ingredients (glycyrrhiza glabra root extract, morus alba bark extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
