“Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract and Vitamin B5, both well-known humectants that attracts and seals in moisture, helps to keep skin hydrated and moisturised, whilst improving skin's irregularities.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, sodium lactate.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

“Send dull, ageing, rough skin packing with the skinChemists Gold Supreme Anti-Ageing Peel-Off Face Mask ; a skin-renewing facial treatment that performs an exfoliating, ridding skin of dead cells and impurities to make way for a smoother, firmer and more youthful-looking complexion.”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
