Product summary

Based on the ingredient list, "Garancia - Mysterieux Repulpant + Mille et Un Jours GLobal Anti-Aging Day Cream Free" can work well for skin moisturization. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Garancia - Mysterieux Repulpant + Mille et Un Jours GLobal Anti-Aging Day Cream Free ticks this box. Humectants in this product (acetyl hexapeptide-8, glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, sodium hyaluronate and caprylyl glycol) 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). Emollients in this formulation (cetyl alcohol, undecane, heptyl undecylenate, caprylyl glycol and glyceryl caprylate) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts

  • This moisturizer also contains Peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-38 0.10% - 0.25%, dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.20% - 0.35%, acetyl hexapeptide-8 0.50% - 0.75% and dipeptide diaminobutyroyl benzylamide diacetate 0.50% - 0.80%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, 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 they are helpful. Peptides 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.
This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: caprylic/capric triglyceride and vitamin e
