What does the product description say?
Moisturise Double Rose Rejuvenating Face Cream
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:
glycerin, sodium lactate.
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: butyrospermum parkii butter, cocos nucifera oil.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
sodium lactate | HIGH | ||
sesamum indicum seed oil | HIGH | ||
simmondsia chinensis seed oil | HIGH |
Other benefit: Anti-aging
This product contains centella asiatica leaf 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.

centella asiatica leaf extract | MEDIUM | ||
butyrospermum parkii butter | LOW | ||
aloe barbadensis leaf juice | LOW |
