Works for
MoisturizingHydrolyzed collagen, Collagen + 2 moreWorks
“Features 150,000 ppm Hydrolyzed Collagen to enhance skin elasticity for a firm and plump complexion.”
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:
hydrolyzed collagen, 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: hydrolyzed collagen.
Evens skin toneAscorbic acid ~2.6–3.9%, below the ~4% it needsUnder-dosed
“Contains Vitamin C, which helps brighten and correct skin tone.”
Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low
Anti-agingSide benefit · Adenosine, Ascorbic acidWorks well
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

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 (2.60% - 3.90%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
- Adenosine 0.35% - 0.80%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
- Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.45% - 1.10% and hydrolyzed collagen 3.80% - 5.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Price
The product retails for 9.30$ in the United States.
