Once these spheres come in contact with water inside the skin, they swell rapidly, creating a plumping action on the skin and mechanically smoothing out wrinkles.

It also absorbs moisture that would otherwise be escaping from deeper layers in the skin and retains it in place, boosting hydration.

Free from mineral oils and fragrances.
