Source Naturals Skin Eternal DMAE Serum
Benefits
Promise: Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Rich Moisturization Skin Eternal DMAE Serum, an aqueous cosmetic serum, is a moisturizing lotion containing a rich blend of nutrients and plant extracts.
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:
glycerin.
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: cocos nucifera oil.
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| calcium pantothenate | HIGH |  |  |
| cocos nucifera oil | HIGH | | |
| glycerin | HIGH | | |
Other benefit: Anti-aging
This product contains thioctic acid, ubiquinone. These ingredients help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they might be able to prevent early signs of aging (like fine lines and wrinkles), at least to some extent. These ingredients will not be able to "reverse" signs of aging.
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| thioctic acid | LOW | | |
| ubiquinone | LOW | | |
| tocopherol | LOW |  | |
Other benefit: Anti-oxidation
This product contains antioxidants (thioctic acid, ubiquinone) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| thioctic acid | HIGH | | |
| ubiquinone | HIGH | | |
| tocopherol | HIGH | | |
