WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

It can be helpful for moisturization, but will not get the job done on its own. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin, but the ingredients to "seal in" the moisture and reduce water loss over time can be more effective.

Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 water (aqua Plain old water
2 lactic acid An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiom)
3 sodium lactate Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Is often used to adjust the pH level of the product
4 glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
5 salicylic acid Used for skin exfoliation. It has an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effect, helps to unclog pores, prevent blemishes and speed up healing of the existing ones. Sometimes referred to as a BHA (beta-hydroxy acid)
6 silica Used to absorb oil and can temporarily mattify skin
7 phospholipids Emollients that are naturaly present in skin. In addition, they help water and oil mix together in the product
8 water water (aqua Plain old water
9 sodium lactate Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Is often used to adjust the pH level of the product
10 isododecane An emollient that helps soften the skin and can decrease moisture loss. Helps create a nice product texture
11 glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
12 cyclotetrasiloxane
13 lactic acid An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiom)
14 mica Creates an illusion of smoother and more radiant skin tone. Adds shimmer to the skin by reflecting light
15 silica Used to absorb oil and can temporarily mattify skin
16 cellulose Can be used to help absorb oil as well as add volume and imporve texture of products.
17 aluminum starch octenylsuccinate Used to thicken the product's consistency
18 acetyl hexapeptide-8 A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles
19 cetearyl alcohol A non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture
20 cetearyl glucoside Helps water and oil in the product mix well together and improves product texture
21 caffeine Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals. Can have a dehydration effect that might somewhat decrease the look of puffy eyes

23 tocopherol Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
24 ascorbyl palmitate Being a lipid soluble form of vitamin C, it is more stable and can penetrate the skin better than L-Ascorbic acid. It is effective in protecting the skin from free radicals, as well as evening the skin tone, but is less effective in stimulating collagen production compared to L-Ascorbic acid.
25 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

27 algae extract Plant extract that helps the skin to attract water and make it more smooth for touch. Also shows promise of anti-aging properties, but research is not extensive yet
28 aloe barbadensis leaf extract Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin
29 sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin
30 caprylic/capric triglyceride A good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin
