ANTIOXIDANT

Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.

HAIR CONDITIONING

A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.

HUMECTANT

A moisture magnet. Pulls water from the air and deeper skin layers up to the surface to keep skin plump and hydrated.

EMOLLIENT

Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.

SKIN PROTECTING

Helps rebuild and strengthen your skin barrier — the invisible shield that keeps moisture in and irritants out. Essential after over-exfoliating or harsh weather.
