MoisturizingCeramide 3, Glycerin + 12 moreWorks well
“4 moisturizing ingredients , Peach fruit extract (peach)/honey extract (honey & milk), ceramide, collagen & hyaluronic acid Na.”
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:
allantoin, 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: ricinus communis seed oil, hydrolyzed collagen.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide 3
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Tocopherol, Prunus persica fruit extract + 1 moreWorks well
This product contains antioxidants (tocopherol) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
Anti-agingNot advertised by the brand · Tocopherol, Aloe barbadensis leaf juice + 1 moreMay help
This product contains tocopherol. This ingredient 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 callouts
- Ceramides (ceramide 3 0.25% - 0.45%). Ceramides are an important part of our natural skin barrier. The Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or come from plants. They help soften the skin and can help "fill the gaps" in the skin barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and resilient for longer.
- In addition, it contains Allantoin (1.30% - 1.60%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
- Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.40%, sodium hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.40%, hydrolyzed collagen 0.25% - 0.45%, allantoin 1.30% - 1.60% and glycerin 5.30% - 6.50%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
