WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

Yes. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin. But: it can't help seal in the moisture and reduce water loss over time, so you might want to use an additional product with good emollient ingredients (like oils, butters, or silicones)

Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 688901 54 - ingredients : The ingredient is not recognized
2 water Plain old water
3 ascorbic acid One of the few well researched potent anti-aging ingredients. When it is able to penetrate the skin in an active state, it is effective against fine lines and wrinkles, helps improve skin elasticity and reduce hyperpigmentation. It acts as a powerful anti-oxidant and stimulates collagen production. The main issue with ascorbic acid is that it is highly unstable, in other words, it is losing its effectivenss quickly when exposed to air and light (if a serum or cream containing ascorbic acid has an orange color, it is a likely that the ingredient has oxidized and is no longer active). In addition, it is water-soluble, meaning that it has difficulty pentrating the skin. It is also quite irritating, and can cause stinging. When used in low concentrations, helps stabilize the product formulation
4 alcohol denat. Produces temporary toning effect. Can help dissolve other ingredients or preserve products
5 dipropylene glycol Helps to dissolve other ingredients in a formulation. Slows down the rate of product drying
6 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
7 laureth-23 Helps oil and water mix together
8 neohesperidin dihydrochalcone
9 sodium hydroxide Used to adjust the product's pH
10 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
11 hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Attracts water into the upper layer of the skin. A version of it is naturally present in skin
12 pinus pinaster bark/bud extract
