Based on the ingredients included, "The Jojoba Company - Ultimate Day Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. The Jojoba Company - Ultimate Day Cream ticks this box. Humectants in this product (panthenol and aloe barbadensis leaf juice) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Caprylic/capric triglyceride, simmondsia chinensis seed oil, brassica oleracea italica seed oil, cetearyl alcohol and glyceryl caprylate in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.
Ingredient callouts
This formulation also includes panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 1.60% - 2.40% concentration. In this concentration, panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.

What does the product description say?
Firms & lifts Smooths fines lines Blue light protection Using a fermented marine active along with orchid and magnolia extracts, this clinically proven day cream will visibly reduce skin sagging and fine lines while deeply moisturising and protecting skin from blue light digital aging.
Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin
A stable derivative of vitamin C. It is oil-soluble which means it is more likely to penetrate the skin compared to the pure form of vitamin C (which is water-soluble), but it is less bio-available and is way less effective in stimulating collagen and reducing wrinkles compared to the pure form of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and its other derivatives (for example, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate). At the same time, this vitamin C derivative has been shown in studies to be effective in reducing acne, blemishes and clogged pores. It is less irritating then the pure form of vitamin C
