MoisturizingCannabidiol - derived from extract or tincture or resin of cannabis, Madecassoside + 4 moreWorks well
“The booster drops can be applied to cleansed skin or mixed into your daily moisturiser to create a soothing, hydrating shield that comforts sensitive and dry complexions.”
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:
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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, squalane.
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, madecassoside
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Tocopherol, Madecassoside + 1 moreWorks well
This product contains antioxidants (madecassoside, tocopherol) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
Anti-agingSide benefit the brand mentions · Madecassoside, TocopherolMay help
“Promoting a sense of wellbeing and calm with Ylang Ylang essential oil, the stress-busting skin-soother helps revitalise, maintain skin’s natural barrier function and restore a youthful glow.”
This product contains madecassoside. There is some human evidence that this ingredient helps reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.
