1. Ceramides: Skin protective barrier has the main role of moisturizing, preventing irritants from entering. Dermatologist Brendan Camp in New York (USA) explains above Good Housekeeping : “Ceramides plays the role of ‘mortar’, holding skin cells together”. It maintains the strength of the skin’s protective barrier against moisture loss. Image: @maodoyo. 2. Hyaluronic acid: This is a widely used ingredient in the cosmetic world. Hyaluronic acid acts like a sponge, absorbing water and trapping it inside the skin. This substance can hold up to 1,000 times its own weight of water. Hyaluronic acid helps to moisturize, fill wrinkles and maintain a plump appearance. Apply cosmetics containing hyaluronic acid to damp skin, underneath the cream layer, to function effectively.

It exfoliates by dissolving bonds between aging cells, thereby improving skin texture, tone and pore size. Glycolic acid also provides anti-aging benefits. Dermatologist Rita Linkner in New York (USA) said: “Glycolic acid increases the density of collagen and elastin in the skin”. However, it is easily irritating to people with very sensitive skin or in high concentrations. Image: Allure. 4. Lactic acid: Another acid that belongs to the AHA group. Lactic acid, derived from milk, is usually milder and less irritating than glycolic acid. It is quite common in many exfoliating products, giving the skin even color and radiance. Lactic acid also contributes to the increase in natural moisturizing factors in the skin. Image: @ruruhaoke, Biossance. 5.

Retinol: Dermatologist Rita Linkner explains: “Retinol is one of the most effective skin-transforming ingredients”. Retinol belongs to a larger group called retinoids. In the group of retinoids there are many prescription and over-the-counter options. Basically, they work in the same way. It is to speed up cell turnover, promote new cell production. Retinol is aimed at reducing wrinkles and acne. However, this substance easily causes side effects such as redness and flaking of the skin.

Vitamin C interferes with the production of excess pigmentation on the skin. It fades pigmentation or discoloration, while stimulating collagen production.
