Anti-blemish
What does the product description say?
Nip pesky blemishes in the bud with the S. O.
Source: Lookfantastic US
This product can help reduce breakouts and clogged pores because it contains the following ingredient: sulfur. This ingredient is used for treating acne and can have a noticeable effect.
Moisturizing
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant
An emollient that can also help water and oil mix together, as well as prevent bacteria growth in products
Evens skin tone
What does the product description say?
Apply S. O. S. Spot Treatment morning and evening, directly onto spots or impurities, for cooling, soothing relief.

A plant extract that can help lighten the skin and calm down inflammation. Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals
