Key ingredients

Attracts water, giving cells and skin volume. Plays a key role in cell signals and other vital processes. It cushions the skin, providing resilience and firmness. This moisturizing humectant temporarily plumps fine lines and wrinkles. HA makes skin feel dewy and look radiant and glowing. Great for oily skin because it feels lightweight and non-greasy on the skin. Safe for all skin types. HA helps other skincare products get into the skin. This antiaging and hydrating ingredient can radically alter how your skin routine works by affecting penetration and absorption of other ingredients- so make sure you use it in the correct step of your skin care routine.

Dermatologist-recommended antioxidant for antiaging because it increases collagen and prevents melanin production. Protects skin from sun exposure and lightens dark spots.

Glycerin (Glycerol) is the best natural moisturizing ingredient to hydrate skin quickly. May give products a sticky feel.

Combines with fatty acids and cholesterol to repair skin barrier

Cholesterol is a lipid that makes up the skin barrier. Cholesterol is usually combined with ceramides and fatty acids in barrier repair moisturizers. It is often an animal derived ingredient. If you prefer a vegan form of cholesterol look for beta sitosterol which is a natural form of cholesterol.

Shea butter, a rich plant-based oil, is celebrated for its thick, creamy texture and impressive skincare benefits. Packed with moisturizing fatty acids like stearic, oleic, and linoleic acids, it deeply hydrates and repairs the skin's barrier, making it ideal for dry and eczema-prone skin. Additionally, shea butter offers anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and UV-protective properties, while its antioxidant phenolic compounds provide anti-aging benefits and extend the product's shelf life.

Soothing oil with anti-inflammatory fatty acids like linoleic acid. Noncomedogenic. Very moisturizing.

Glyceryl Stearate
A combination of glycerin and stearic acid to hydrate skin. A humectant and occlusive moisturizer.

Lecithin
Lecithin, a phospholipid derived from sources like soybeans or sunflower, is used for its moisturizing and emollient properties. It helps repair the skin barrier by replenishing lipids, improving hydration, and reducing trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL). Lecithin also enhances the delivery of active ingredients by increasing skin permeability and increasing absorption of other ingredients in the skin care routine.
