Judging from the ingredient list, "this works - Morning Expert CBD Booster and Vitamin C" works well for improving skin hydration The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Humectants in this product (arginine and sodium hyaluronate) 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). Emollients in this formulation (arginine, caprylic/capric triglyceride and squalane) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.
Ingredient callouts
We are excited that this moisturizer contains Cannabidiol, or CBD (1.50% - 2.30%). CBD is a new active in cosmetic products, and the studies on its effect in skin are still going on. CBD is one of the compouns in the cannabis plant. It does not have any psychotropic effects. When used topically, CBD can bind to skin cell receptors and "change their behaviour". It can help reduce inflammation, itching, and help support skin barrier function. It also might be able to reduce acne.

that it
actually works: ascorbyl glucoside.
A vitamin C derivative that is more stable but less potent than pure form of vitamin C. Has a potential to boost collagen production, nutralise free radicals and reduce hyperpigmentation, but the required concentration is likely to be much higher than for the pure form of vitamin C, limiting the ingredient's effectiveness in products
Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
This Works This Works Morning Expert CBD Booster + Vitamin C Naturally effective, this custom booster is expertly blended with 1% CBD and 20% Vit C to brighten and balance dehydrated morning skin.
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:
arginine, sodium hyaluronate.
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:
arginine, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with
the hydration level: cannabidiol - derived from extract or tincture or resin of cannabis
An amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin
CBD. Can bind to skin cell receptors and can reduce inflammation, itching, and help support skin barrier function
