What the formula may support

Glycerin · Hydration · priority rank #1

A dependable hydration workhorse; common does not mean inferior.

Ceramides · Skin barrier · priority rank #1

A high-priority barrier ingredient when delivered in a well-designed lipid formula.

Petrolatum · Skin barrier · priority rank #2

One of the most effective ways to reduce water loss, with texture—not evidence—as the main tradeoff.

Glycerin · Skin barrier · priority rank #3

A low-cost foundation that supports barrier recovery by improving hydration.

Hyaluronic acid · Hydration · priority rank #3

Useful for temporary hydration and plumping, but not uniquely superior to other well-formulated humectants.

What cannot be concluded

TIER does not assign universal efficacy to a product. A complete formula can behave differently from an isolated ingredient, and INCI order cannot reveal unpublished concentrations.
