What can the product work for?
Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
One of the most powerful anti-ageing ingredients, lipopeptide ChroNoline™, boosts collagen production and hyaluronic acid within the layers of the skin, maintaining skin cohesion to reduce the appearance of skin decline.
ascorbyl glucoside

Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness:
MEDIUM
A vitamin C derivative that is more stable but less potent than pure form of vitamin C. Has a potential to boost collagen production, nutralise free radicals and reduce hyperpigmentation, but the required concentration is likely to be much higher than for the pure form of vitamin C, limiting the ingredient's effectiveness in products
aloe barbadensis leaf juice

Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness:
LOW
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
gluconolactone

Irritation risk:
Concentration: Insufficient!
A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals
Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Boosted with a high performance B complex, including B5 (Pathenol) and B7 (Biotin) and B2 (Riboflavin) to deeply hydrate, assist with collagen production, and increase cell turnover.
