Thank You Farmer True Water Deep Serum
Works for
MoisturizingPanthenol, Ceramide np + 23 moreWorks well
“This serum infused with inositol, ceramide 3, yam root and purslane extract moisturizes skin while adenosine, lecithin, and cnidium officinale root extract helps to reduce wrinkles.”
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:
biosaccharide gum-1, 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: cholesterol, bis-peg-18 methyl ether dimethyl silane.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide np, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4, panthenol
Anti-agingAdenosine, Folic acid + 3 moreWorks well
“This serum infused with inositol, ceramide 3, yam root and purslane extract moisturizes skin while adenosine, lecithin, and cnidium officinale root extract helps to reduce wrinkles.”
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: folic acid, palmitoyl pentapeptide-4.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
Evens skin tonePaeonia lactiflora root extract, Glycyrrhiza glabra root extractNot delivered
“Starring soothing aloe vera, hydrating sodium hyaluronate and brightening liquorice extract, Thank You Farmer’s True Water Deep Serum imparts deep moisture that simultaneously softens and protects the skin.”
This product contains ingredients (glycyrrhiza glabra root extract, paeonia lactiflora root extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.

Product summary
"Thank You Farmer - True Water Deep Serum" is effective for: Anti-inflammatory, Anti-aging and Moisturizing
Ingredient callouts
- Ceramides (ceramide np 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.
- Peptides (palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 0.10% - 0.25%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that theynare helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
- Adenosine 0.45% - 0.70%. It is a chemical present inside our skin cells. A clinical trial confirmed that topical application of Adenosine in a low concentration can reduce dynamic wrinkles (these are the wrinkles that appear with age in a places where our mimic is the most active, for example, in the corners of the eyes or on the forehead).
- Humectants (glycerin 0.15% - 0.30%, biosaccharide gum-1 0.15% - 0.25%, sodium hyaluronate 0.30% - 0.50%, soluble collagen 0.30% - 0.55%, panthenol 0.30% - 0.50%, inositol 0.30% - 0.50%, sucrose 0.25% - 0.45% and glycerin 4.00% - 4.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
