“Its skin toning and brightening effect alongside its healing properties help to improve the appearance of thread veins and scars.Lotus , A mineral, and antioxidant-rich water extracted from the Lotus plant to soothe and hydrate the skin.Hyaluronic Acid , Sourced from maize, this hydrating powerhouse stores water like a reservoir for the skin, maintaining moisture at multiple levels and reducing Transepidermal Water Loss.Deep Sea Magnesium & Minerals , This natural complex deeply penetrates the skin, absorbing rapidly through the dermal layers to improve skin health.”
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:
arginine, fructose.
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: arginine, pentylene glycol.
