MoisturizingGlycerin, Squalane + 8 moreWorks
“Its cooling formula absorbs instantly, providing deep hydration while blurring imperfections and keeping excess oil in check throughout the day.”
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, mannitol.
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: squalane, prunus armeniaca kernel oil.
Anti-agingTocopherolNot delivered
“Infused with Ruby Crystals, it blurs the appearance of fine lines and imperfections for a smoother, more luminous finish.”
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 malpighia punicifolia fruit extract might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.
Evens skin toneYeast extractNot delivered
