What the product description says

“Moisturised and luminous face seems fresh and rejuvenated, with a healthy-glow effect. Tested under dermatological control.”

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: anhydroxylitol, biosaccharide gum-1.

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: butyrospermum parkii butter, dimethicone.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: hexanoyl dipeptide-3 norleucine acetate, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4

Product summary

"Qiriness - Élixir Temps Futur Age-Defy Smoothing Essence" 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

This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.25% - 0.50%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
Peptides (hexanoyl dipeptide-3 norleucine acetate 0.20% - 0.40% and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.25% - 0.45%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. They might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
Humectants (biosaccharide gum-1 0.25% - 0.50%, anhydroxylitol 0.25% - 0.50%, xylitylglucoside 0.25% - 0.50%, sodium hyaluronate 0.45% - 0.70% and glycerin 4.80% - 5.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
