What the product description says
“Formerly the Centella Unscented Toner, this newly repackaged version of PURITO’s beloved formula is anchored in cica, panthenol and sodium hyaluronate to calm irritation, lock in moisture and strengthen the skin barrier.”
Source: Yesstyle

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: allantoin, arginine.

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

Product summary

"Purito SEOUL - Wonder Releaf Centella Toner Unscented" is effective for: Moisturizing

This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.

Ingredient callouts

  • Actives derived from an extract of the Centella Asiatica plant (also known as Gotu Kola) - asiatic acid 0.01% - 0.05%, madecassic acid 0.01% - 0.05%, asiaticoside 0.01% - 0.05% and madecassoside 0.05% - 0.25% The Centella Asiatica Actives, even in low concentration, can help reduce inflammation in skin, strengthen the skin barrier and reduce photodamage. They can also help to decrease scarring.
  • Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 0.50% - 1.20% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
  • In addition, this product contains Allantoin (0.55% - 1.25%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
  • Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.10% - 0.35%, arginine 0.40% - 0.90%, panthenol 0.50% - 1.20% and trehalose 1.20% - 1.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
