Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "W3LL PEOPLE - Bio Brightener Cream Stick" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. W3LL PEOPLE - Bio Brightener Cream Stick ticks this box. Humectants in this product (butylene glycol and propylene glycol) 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). Paraffinum liquidum, petrolatum, carthamus tinctorius seed oil, rosa rubiginosa seed oil and copernicia cerifera wax in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: camellia sinensis seed oil, lecithin, jojoba oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, vitamin e and titanium dioxide

What does the product description say?

The rich creamy organic formula has a satin, smooth, weightless texture .

Source: Ulta

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: copernicia cerifera wax, dimethicone.

Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: paraffinum liquidum, petrolatum

dimethicone 2.9% - 4.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A silicone that helps to reduce water loss from the surface of the skin. Can temporarily "fill in" lines and wrinkles, absorb oil, and create a nice product finish

helianthus annuus seed oil 0.6% - 1.35%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function

paraffinum liquidum 1.2% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Mineral oil. One of the most effective and well studied occlusive and emollient moisturizing ingredients. Helps reduce moisture loss in skin and repair skin barrier function

Anti-aging

What does the product description say?

Optically diffuse fine lines and imperfections.

Source: Ulta

This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

A plant oil that helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and can help restore the skin barrier. Might have some anti-oxidant effect

tocopherol 0.2% - 0.75%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

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

aloe barbadensis leaf juice 0.15% - 0.65%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin
