"ONmacabim - Moisturizing Hyaluronic Mask" is effective for: Moisturizing
Ingredient callouts
An effective concentration of Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 3.30% - 5.00%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.90% - 2.90%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
Humectants (allantoin 1.90% - 2.90%, panthenol 3.30% - 5.00% and hyaluronic acid 22.00% - 34.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called
"humectants":
allantoin, hyaluronic acid.
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).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with
the hydration level: panthenol
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin. Naturally present in skin. Typically has large molecule size unless advertised otherwise on the product label. Helps support skin's barrier function and may help to reduce inflammation
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
Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
It smooths out fine lines and wrinkles on the face, neck and the cleavage area.
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 -
hyaluronic acid - could be helpful for preventing or
repairing signs of aging in theory,
but there is no evidence that it actually works.
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin. Naturally present in skin. Typically has large molecule size unless advertised otherwise on the product label. Helps support skin's barrier function and may help to reduce inflammation
