Works for
MoisturizingOligopeptide-34, Glycine soja oilWorks well
“The product contains bioactive substances, which moisturizes and protects the skin, as well as ensures the freshness of the skin and gives it a "radiant" look.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: glycine soja oil.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: oligopeptide-34
Anti-agingOligopeptide-34May help
This product contains oligopeptide-34. There is some human evidence that this ingredient helps reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.

Product summary
"Caregen - Dermaheal CC Cream Tan Beige" is effective for: Moisturizing
This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- Peptides (oligopeptide-34 22.00% - 33.00%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. They might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
