“Firming cream for chest and décolleté that lifts, tones, and smooths crepey skin.”

MoisturizingGelidiella acerosa extract, Glycerin + 10 moreGood evidence
“Powered by CoQ10 and nourishing oils to boost elasticity, improve texture, and deliver a more youthful, contoured look without a greasy feel.”
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, sodium hyaluronate.
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: dimethicone, squalane.
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Ubiquinone, Taraxacum officinale root extract + 5 moreStrong evidence
This product contains antioxidants (ubiquinone) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).
