Pacifica Beauty Strawberry Peach Body Lotion
Works for
MoisturizingEthylhexyl palmitate, Caprylic/capric triglyceride + 9 moreWorks
“Packed full of naturally derived ingredients to hydrate your body from tip to toe, the Strawberry Peach Body Lotion is a potent, quick-absorbing moisturiser that will leave your limbs silky-soft and effortlessly radiant.”
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, hyaluronic acid.
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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, helianthus annuus seed oil.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Camellia sinensis extract, Laminaria digitata extract + 2 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (camellia sinensis extract) 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.

Ingredient callouts
- This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.50% - 0.70%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
- Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 2.90% - 3.50% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
- Humectants (hyaluronic acid 0.50% - 0.80%, glycerin 0.70% - 1.05%, hyaluronic acid 2.30% - 2.80% and panthenol 2.90% - 3.50%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
