Moisturizing3 ingredients credited for this claimGood support
“Its action is complemented by hyaluronic acid, which helps to plump the skin and maintain its proper hydration.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": hyaluronic acid.
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. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
Anti-aging4 ingredients credited for this claimModerate support
“Forté Pharma Expert Lift'Filler Collagen 5000mg 10 Shots is a food supplement with a highly concentrated formula of bioactive collagen to reduce the volume of wrinkles around the eyes and improve skin elasticity.”
This product contains retinyl acetate. This ingredient 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.
