What the product description says
“Enriched with a duo of adaptogens (Breton Seaweed & Reishi Mushroom) and Hyaluronic Acid , it moisturises the skin deep down and helps it to fight daily environmental stress (climate variations, pollution, etc.) for 48-hour tailor-made hydration for any environment or season.”

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: fructose, 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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, myristyl myristate.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol, urea

UreaHero· HumectantEffect: HighNaturally present in skin (urea makes up about 7% of natural moisturizing factors in skin). Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin.

What the product description says
“The creamy texture melts effortlessly into skin, delivering intense hydration whilst defending against the first signs of ageing.”
Source: Mankind

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 - beta-glucan - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.

This ingredient castanea sativa seed extract might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin and help it fight off some of the sun damage.

May help

This product contains antioxidants (castanea sativa seed extract, imperata cylindrica root extract, tocopheryl linoleate) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun).

Product summary

"Payot - HYDRA 24+ Creme Glacee Plumping Moisturising Care Cream" has a good moisturizing formula. As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Humectants in this product (urea, fructose, glycerin, glycine and imperata cylindrica root extract) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Emollients in this formulation (borago officinalis seed oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, myristyl myristate, cyclopentasiloxane and diisopropyl adipate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: niacinamide and vitamin e
