Product summary

Based on the ingredients included, "RéVive - Rescue Elixir Anti-Aging Oil by Révive" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. RéVive - Rescue Elixir Anti-Aging Oil by Révive ticks this box. Glycerin and soy amino acids in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (astrocaryum murumuru seed butter, carthamus tinctorius seed oil, glycine soja oil, helianthus annuus seed oil unsaponifiables and limnanthes alba seed oil) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts

  • We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (oligopeptide-41 0.45% - 1.05% and oligopeptide-24 0.50% - 1.20%). There are many different kind of peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of amino-acids. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective peptides in skincare are, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. Peptides 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.
