ROUND LAB Buy Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Tone-Up Sunscreen Australia - Korean Skin Care

Judging from the ingredient list, "ROUND LAB - Buy Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Tone-Up Sunscreen Australia - Korean Skin Care" works well for improving skin hydration This moisturizer uses a good combo of humectants and emollients. These both types of ingredients are essentials for improving the skin hydration and keeping the skin barrier healthy. Acetyl hexapeptide-8, hexapeptide-9, glycerin, glyceryl glucoside and hyaluronic acid 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). Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, palmitoyl tripeptide-1, tripeptide-1, oryza sativa bran oil and vinyl dimethicone in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

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 moisturizer it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.20% - 0.40%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
• We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (hexapeptide-9 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-12 0.25% - 0.40%, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl tripeptide-5 0.20% - 0.40%, palmitoyl tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.25% - 0.45%, tripeptide-1 0.25% - 0.45%, copper tripeptide-1 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.20% - 0.40%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.20% - 0.40% and nonapeptide-1 0.20% - 0.40%). 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. 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.
• Adenosine 0.20% - 0.40%. It is a compound that in involved in many biological processes inside the skin cells. According one high-quality clinical trial, topical Adenosine in low concentrations can somewhat help improve "deep wrinkles" - the wrinkles that appear with age in places where our faces are most dynamic (for example, on the forehead or in the corners of the eyes).
