“Simple to use, the treatment helps to minimise the appearance of common skin complaints such as acne scars, pigmentation and wrinkles to leave skin smoother, brighter and more youthful-looking.”
This product contains centella asiatica extract. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

“Enriched with Hyaluronic Acid to replenish and retain vital moisture for a plumper, firmer skin texture, the formula also utilises probiotics to soothe sensitive skin.”
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:
arginine, betaine.
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: arginine, cetyl alcohol.

Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Centella asiatica extract, Camellia japonica flower extract + 5 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (camellia japonica flower extract, centella asiatica extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
