“Ideal as a day and night cream, the luscious, concentrate boasts a cooling, velvety texture that is easily absorbed to instantly replenish moisture, locking in hydration underneath makeup.”
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:
camellia sinensis seed oil, 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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, camellia sinensis seed oil.
Anti-aging1 ingredient credited for this claimLimited support
“Enriched with an anti-ageing trio of Sacred Lotus, Cabbage and skin-plumping Hyaluronic Acid, along with highly-nutritive Prickly Pear Cactus Seed Oil for a plump, radiant complexion. Suitable for all skin types.”
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.This ingredient - camellia sinensis seed oil - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.
