Promise: Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
The look of fine lines is visibly smoothed.
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.These ingredients - butyrospermum parkii butter, glutamylamidoethyl imidazole, thermus thermophillus ferment - could be helpful for preventing or repairing signs of aging in theory, but there is no evidence that it actually works.

Multi-Active Night Cream, Normal to Dry Skin
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, thermus thermophillus ferment.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: butyrospermum parkii butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| thermus thermophillus ferment | HIGH | | |
| butyrospermum parkii butter | HIGH | | |
| caprylic/capric triglyceride | HIGH | | |
