Benefits
Promise: Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Free from essential oils, it’s infused with panthenol and 10% centella asiatica extract to provide hydration while soothing and calming skin from external aggressors.
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, sodium hyaluronate.
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.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: madecassoside, panthenol
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
centella asiatica extract | HIGH | ||
madecassoside | HIGH | ||
panthenol | HIGH |
Other benefit: Anti-aging
This product contains asiaticoside, centella asiatica extract, madecassoside. These ingredients might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
asiaticoside | MEDIUM | ||
centella asiatica extract | MEDIUM | ||
madecassoside | MEDIUM |
Other benefit: Anti-oxidation
This product contains antioxidants (asiaticoside, madecassoside) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
The following ingredients - centella asiatica extract also can have an antioxidant effect, but there is less evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
asiaticoside | HIGH | ||
madecassoside | HIGH | ||
centella asiatica extract | MEDIUM |
