L'Oreal products almost always have too many chemicals in it. For me this moisturizer is not moisturizing enough.

There are some collagen stimulating ingredients, elastin for one. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy form that can be readily used by organisms including humans. ATP is required for numerous biological processes. Research of topical use of ATP is limited, but it appears to have strong potential as a cell-communicating factor.

In terms of antioxidant, there is retinyl palmitate which is form of vitamin A. It is a combination of retinol (pure vitamin A) and palmitic acid. It is effective antioxidant and anti-aging factor. Yeast are group of fungi that have good antioxidant effect. It has also been claimed to have tissue-repair and protective properties but much of this needs further investigation.

There is quite a lot of silicone in there which gives skin an instant, but temporary, smooth feeling.

Too much fragrance, not good.

Safety alert: Cautious
review based on scientific information of the product ingredients.

1st ingredient
oj_line is water.
2nd ingredient
isononyl isononanoate makes the product less sticky and easy to spread.
3rd ingredient
glycerin transports water from the environment and from the lower layers of skin (dermis) to surface skin (epidermis). It softens the skin. Glycerin is a substance naturally present in skin which helps maintain the epidermis and prevent dryness or scaling.
4th ingredient
dimethicone is silicone that gives skin a slip and silky feeling. It also acts as a water-resistant emollient.
