MoisturizingOlea europaea fruit oil, Cocos nucifera oil + 11 moreWorks
“Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter helps lock in moisture while providing rich nutrients to nourish and soften skin.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: butyrospermum parkii butter, cocos nucifera 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-agingButyrospermum parkii butterNot delivered
“Contains essential oils of Citrus, Olive, Coconut and Jojoba for excellent anti-aging properties.”
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.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.
