“Restore your skin radiance with L'Élixir de Pureté – a deeply hydrating, soothing and firming face serum that contains Dragon's Blood Extract , known for its soothing and firming properties.”
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:
betaine, glycerin.
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: helianthus annuus seed oil, prunus amygdalus dulcis oil.
Anti-agingPrunus amygdalus dulcis oil, Ascorbyl palmitate + 1 moreNot delivered
“Okoko's serum is enriched with Niacinamide , known to reduce the appearance of pores and problematic skin, and soothing botanical extracts that replenish and renew the look of dull, stressed, and tired-looking skin.”
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.
This ingredient saccharomyces/barley seed ferment filtrate might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Saccharomyces/barley seed ferment filtrate, Lactobacillus ferment + 7 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (saccharomyces/barley seed ferment filtrate) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
