WIMJ summary for anti-aging

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

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
butyrospermum parkii butter	LOW
aloe barbadensis leaf juice	LOW
tocopherol	LOW

WIMJ summary for moisturizing

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: glycerin, lactobacillus ferment.

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, helianthus annuus seed oil.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
persea gratissima oil	HIGH
butyrospermum parkii butter	HIGH
glycerin	HIGH

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
aloe barbadensis leaf juice 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	23% - 34%
rosa canina fruit oil A great emollient. Contains vitamin E (tocopherol) which may give it some anti-oxidant properties. Can contain volatile compounds and can be irritating	5.2% - 7.8%
persea gratissima oil An emollient that helps soften the skin and could be helpful in repairing its barrier function	4.4% - 6.6%
butyrospermum parkii butter A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals	3.9% - 5.8%
helianthus annuus seed oil A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function	2.9% - 4.4%
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	1.9% - 2.9%
morus alba root extract	1.4% - 2.1%
terminalia ferdinandiana fruit extract A plant extract that might have some anti-oxidant effect in skin, but evidence is lacking	1.2% - 1.8%
acronychia acidula fruit extract	1% - 1.5%
arctostaphylos uva ursi leaf extract	0.95% - 1.4%
sodium hyaluronate One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin	0.6% - 1.35%
lactobacillus ferment A fermentation product created by bacteria Lactobacillus.

glyceryl undecylenate Helps oil and water mix together and helps preserve the product formulation	0.5% - 1.2%
p-anisic acid Helps preserve products. Can mask unpleasant smell. Could be irritating	0.4% - 0.95%

glyceryl stearate citrate Helps oil and water mix together while softening the upper layer of the skin	0.4% - 0.9%

unknown The ingredient is not recognized	TBC

vitis vinifera fruit extract A plant extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. It might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals in skin, but is less potent than the extract from the seeds	0.1% - 0.4%
