“By supporting the skin with the powerful nutrients from pomegranate, regular use can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, help firm the skin, deeply moisturise, improve elasticity and smooth skin tone.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: butyrospermum parkii butter, helianthus annuus seed oil.
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).
Anti-aging1 ingredient credited for this claimLimited support
“Laugh lines and wrinkles fade, skin regains luminosity and is protected every day from free radicals.”

Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.This ingredient - butyrospermum parkii butter - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.
