Alpha-glucan Oligosaccharide and Moringa Oleifera Seed Extract condition the skin, enhancing its feel and appearance. Withania Somnifera Root Extract and Ganoderma Lucidum (Mushroom) Extract function as antioxidants, potentially reducing the effect of environmental stress on the skin. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice contributes to hydration, adding moisture.
