WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

Yes. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin and then "seal it in", keeping skin hydrated over time

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
lactic acid	HIGH
chondrus crispus powder	HIGH
propolis extract	HIGH

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	aloe barbadensis leaf juice powder	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
2	aqua (water	Plain old water
3	alcohol	Can be drying and contribute to skin irritation. Used in formulars to dissolve other ingredients, create a thinner product consistency or for its antibacterial properties
4	glycerin	One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
5	calcium ascorbate
6	algin	Used to thicken product formulation. Can help attract water to the upper layer of the skin
7	avena sativa (oat) leaf/stem extract
8	citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) peel oil	An essentil oil from orange peel. Potential allergen and can be irritating
9	citrus grandis (grapefruit) peel oil	A plant oil with high content of volatile compounds that, especially when exposed to air, can cause allergic reactions and irritate the skin
10	citrus medica limonum (lemon) peel oil	A highly irritating fragrance
11	rosa canina fruit oil	A great emollient. Contains vitamin E (tocopherol) which may give it some anti-oxidant properties. Can contain volatile compounds and can be irritating
12	chondrus crispus powder	A powder from red algae extract that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and create a nicer product consistency
13	hypericum perforatum extract
14	propolis extract	A complex substance produced by honey bees. Can have anti-bacterial and some anti-oxidant effect. Is an allergen and can be irritating
15	equisetum arvense extract
16	thioctic acid
17	dimethyl mea
18	dimethyl sulfone
19	calendula officinalis extract	A plant extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin
20	helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil	A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function
21	tocopherol	Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself
22	lactic acid	An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiom)
23	pinus sylvestris bark extract
24	ribes nigrum (black currant) leaf extract	A plant extract that might have some anti-oxidant properties but evidence of effectiveness in skin is lacking
