“Hydrating and plumping, the moisturising formula maintains and prolongs the results of the lifting and wrinkle-combatting Fillerina Neck and Cleavage Treatment (sold separately), whilst softening and deeply penetrating sun-damaged skin with intense hydration.”
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:
arginine, glycerin.
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: arginine, dimethicone.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-30, acetyl hexapeptide-37, palmitoyl tripeptide-38
Anti-aging6 ingredients credited for this claimModerate support
“Hydrating and plumping, the moisturising formula maintains and prolongs the results of the lifting and wrinkle-combatting Fillerina Neck and Cleavage Treatment (sold separately), whilst softening and deeply penetrating sun-damaged skin with intense hydration.”
This product contains acetyl hexapeptide-30, acetyl hexapeptide-37, palmitoyl tripeptide-38. These ingredients might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

Product summary
"Fillerina - Neck and Cleavage Cream - Grade 5" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Fillerina - Neck and Cleavage Cream - Grade 5 ticks this box. Humectants in this product (arginine, glycerin, hyaluronic acid, hydrolyzed collagen and hydrolyzed glycosaminoglycans) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Hydrolyzed collagen, limnanthes alba seed oil, arginine, dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.
Ingredient callouts
- This moistruizer also contains peptides (acetyl hexapeptide-30 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl hexapeptide-37 0.20% - 0.40% and palmitoyl tripeptide-38 0.20% - 0.40%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of peptides is, but it is very likely that peptides in skincare are helpful. They might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.
Irritation risk
There are quite a few common irritants in this product, including ingredients without particular skin benefits. We would not recommend it for sensitive skin. We assess the overall irritancy of this moisturizer to be high. For a detailed overview of all potential irritants: click here
