Works for
Anti-agingAdenosine, Rhamnose + 1 moreWorks well
“Anti-wrinkle and hydrating face serum formulated with 10% Rhamnose and Pure Hyaluronic Acid to visibly improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles – including crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, under eye wrinkles and neck wrinkles.”
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
MoisturizingRhamnose, Glycerin + 13 moreWorks
“Anti-wrinkle and hydrating face serum formulated with 10% Rhamnose and Pure Hyaluronic Acid to visibly improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles – including crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, under eye wrinkles and neck wrinkles.”
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, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid.
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: dimethicone, c13-14 isoparaffin.
Evens skin toneCapryloyl salicylic acidMay help
“Infused with Hyaluronic Acid, Fragmented Hyaluronic Acid and 10% Rhamnose, a naturally-derived plant sugar, it works to hydrate parched skin, combat uneven skin tone and promote surface cell renewal, revealing a younger-looking, smoother complexion with revived radiance.”
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: capryloyl salicylic acid.

- Humectants (hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.10% - 0.30%, sodium hyaluronate 0.15% - 0.60% and glycerin 2.60% - 3.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
