Estée Lauder Re-Nutriv Ultimate Diamond Transformative Eye Serum
Benefits
Promise: Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
whisper-light eye serum with ceramic wand that delivers instant, visible depuffing and reveals a brighter, less puffy, more sculpted eye look.
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains acetyl glucosamine.
These ingredients in the product can also be helpful, even though there is less evidence for their effectiveness: acetyl hexapeptide-8.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
acetyl glucosamine | HIGH | ||
acetyl hexapeptide-8 | MEDIUM | ||
butyrospermum parkii butter | LOW |
Promise: Evens skin tone
What does the product description say?
• Skin looks more even-toned.
This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: acetyl glucosamine
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually can help even out the skin tone: prunus mume fruit extract.
Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
acetyl glucosamine | HIGH | ||
prunus mume fruit extract | LOW | ||
hydrolyzed rice extract | LOW |
Other benefit: Moisturizing
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:
algae extract, artemia extract.
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, cera microcristallina.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl glucosamine, acetyl hexapeptide-8
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
acetyl glucosamine | HIGH | ||
ascophyllum nodosum extract | HIGH | ||
dimethicone | HIGH |
