What the product description says

“To moisturise and hone in on areas of dryness, a plant extracts locks in water while polysaccharides create a tighter look and feel.”

Source: Skinstore

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: squalane, hydrogenated vegetable oil.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: acetyl hexapeptide-8, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7

Exfoliation

SEA SALT

Not delivered

What the product description says

“Added active ingredients deliver a peeling effect for a smoother surface, targeting micro-cracks to refine and perfect.”

Source: Skinstore

This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.

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.

Product summary

"Filorga - Time-Filler Intensive Wrinkle Multi-Correction Serum" is effective for: Anti-inflammatory, Moisturizing and Evens skin tone

This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging, 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 (0.25% - 0.45%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
This product includes a form of Retinoids (vitamin A) - retinyl acetate 0.20% - 0.35%, 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.
Peptides (acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.20% - 0.40% and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.25% - 0.50%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. They might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
Humectants (sodium lactate 0.20% - 0.35%, sodium hyaluronate 0.20% - 0.35%, inositol 0.20% - 0.35%, imperata cylindrica root extract 1.50% - 1.90%, glycerin 3.00% - 3.60%, glutamic acid 0.25% - 0.45%, glucosamine hcl 0.25% - 0.45%, aspartic acid 0.20% - 0.40%, alanine 0.20% - 0.40%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.20% - 0.40% and glycine 0.20% - 0.40%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
