"Restoration Oil"
From product name

WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

Yes. Has good ingredients to seal in the moisture in the skin. But: it is not effective in attracting water to the skin, so you might want to use an additional product with good humectant ingredients (like glycerin or hyaluronic acid)

33 retinyl palmitate Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
34 cardiospermum halicacabum flower/leaf/vine extract A plant extract that might have some anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties but evidence is missing
35 citral A fragrance with a lemon scent. A likely irritant
