Product summary

"Filorga - 2 Weeks Anti-Wrinkles Programme" is effective for: Anti-inflammatory, Evens skin tone and Exfoliation

This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging and Moisturizing, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.

Ingredient callouts

This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (0.40% - 0.90%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
This product includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl acetate 0.20% - 0.80% and retinyl acetate 0.35% - 0.80%, but this type of vitamin A is not very effective. It could in theory help with fine lines and wrinkles, but the effect is most likely minimal.
Humectants (inositol 0.20% - 0.75%, glucosamine hcl 0.30% - 0.75%, glutamic acid 0.40% - 0.90%, aspartic acid 0.35% - 0.85%, glycine 0.35% - 0.85%, alanine 0.35% - 0.85%, sodium hyaluronate 0.35% - 0.80%, soluble collagen 0.40% - 0.95%, soluble collagen 0.40% - 0.95%, sodium hyaluronate 0.35% - 0.80%, inositol 0.35% - 0.80%, hydroxyethyl urea 0.35% - 0.80%, glycerin 0.40% - 0.90%, glycerin 1.70% - 2.50%, glutamic acid 0.35% - 0.80%, aspartic acid 0.35% - 0.80%, alanine 0.35% - 0.80%, glycine 0.35% - 0.80% and glucosamine hcl 0.35% - 0.80%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

2 Weeks Anti-Wrinkles Programme

Source: From product name

This product contains aspartic acid, folic acid, retinyl acetate, serine, threonine. 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.

retinyl acetate 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

threonine 0.35% - 0.85%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. In combination with other amino-acids, might help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles

aspartic acid 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

An amino-acid that helps increase skin hydration and might help to slightly improve skin firmness, potentially reducing lines and wrinkles

Evens skin tone

What does the product description say?

The delicate cream texture delivers a veil of moisture onto skin; its dose of Rhamnose Polysaccharide relieves irritation, evens tone and brightens, and NCTF® (an anti-ageing complex used in non-surgical procedures) improves skin density for a younger-looking, more resilient complexion.

Source: Lookfantastic CA

This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: glutathione, hydroxyethyl urea

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: alanine, glucosamine hcl.

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.

glutathione 0.35% - 0.85%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A peptide that can help neutralize free radicals in skin and reduce melanin production resulting in skin lightening effect and reduction in hyperpigmentation. It can also help attract moisture to the upper layer of the skin

glucosamine hcl 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: MEDIUM

Might be able to stimulate production of skin's natural moisturizing compounds such as hyaluronic acid. Could be helpful for evening the skin tone.

alanine 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

An amino-acid that helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and might help to lighten the skin, but solid evidence is lacking

Moisturizing

What does the product description say?

This advanced moisturiser leaves skin feeling soft and supple with a refined surface texture and youthful looking visage.

Source: Lookfantastic CA

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: alanine, aspartic acid.

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: beeswax, caprylic/capric triglyceride.

beeswax 0.4% - 0.95%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Forms a protective barrier that holds water and keeps dry skin hydrated. Keeps an emulsion from separating into its oil and liquid components, and increases the thickness of a product. Can be an allergen

histidine hcl 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A salt of an amino-acid that helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might be helpful in restoring the skin barrier function

soluble collagen 0.4% - 0.95%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A typically plant-derived compound that is supposed mimic human collagen. Cannot penetrate the skin barrier so is not particularly useful in skincare products beyond attracting water to the upper layer of the skin

Exfoliation

This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: hydroxyethyl urea.

hydroxyethyl urea 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

A derivative of urea, a compound that is naturally present in skin. Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients

allantoin 0.3% - 0.75%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

Helps calm down inflammation in skin and can help reduce itching. Helps to repair the skin barrier and keep skin hydrated

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (glutathione) that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. By doing so, they can lessen the damage the skin gets from the UV light (sun).

glutathione 0.35% - 0.85%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

taurine 0.35% - 0.85%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

Could be helpful in reducing inflammation in skin, evening out the skin tone and neutralizing free radicals, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness

pyridoxine hcl 0.35% - 0.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

Might help neutralize free radicals in skin
