non-comedogenic oil that helps balance moisture Witch Hazel Extract .

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: dipotassium glycyrrhizate, 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: cannabis sativa seed oil.

cannabis sativa seed oil 1% - 1.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A plant oil that due to its high linoleic acid content can help strengthen skin's barrier function and soften its upper layer

dipotassium glycyrrhizate 2.6% - 3.9%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A salt derived from licorice. Works as an emollient to soften the upper layer of the skin and can help calm down inflammation. Might be helpful for skin lightening

glycerin 3.4% - 5.1%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
