It's naturally rich in glycoproteins that support the skin, hyaluronic acid that draws in and holds water, allantoin and panthenol that help the barrier recover, and a mild dose of glycolic acid that gently smooths texture and helps soften marks over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe high concentration is the point — it does what lighter hydrators can't. As it dries it leaves a thin, breathable film that helps lock in moisture and shield skin from external irritants, so skin ends up softer, bouncier and visibly fresher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey ingredients\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSnail secretion filtrate 96.3% · sodium hyaluronate · panthenol · arginine · allantoin.
