About the product
The FDA-approved moisturizer is non-toxic, 100% vegan, and cruelty-free. The water-based technology swears to provide your skin with long-lasting hydration alongside giving it a quick fix. It also claims to prevent your pores from clogging and reduce excess oil production to give your face a smooth look.

Ingredients
What does the product contain?
The three main ingredients of the lightweight moisturizer are hyaluronic acid, witch hazel, and prebiotics. Hyaluronic acid helps build lost moisture and collagen, which is what keeps our skin firm and plump. Witch hazel, a medicinal plant, helps to minimize pores and reduces inflammation and redness, besides soothing the skin. Prebiotics maintain a healthy balance of bacteria on your skin.
