Germaine de Capuccini Timexpert Rides Night Success Renewal Mask
Works for
Anti-agingRetinyl palmitate, Alaria esculenta extract + 2 moreMay help
“Firmness is improved and the skin's collagen and elastin production are supported.”
This product contains retinyl palmitate. There is some human evidence that this ingredient helps reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.
MoisturizingDimethicone, Glycerin + 7 moreWorks
“Germaine de Capuccini, Timexpert Rides The Night Success Renewal Mask provides intense hydration and nourishing treatment for the face.”
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:
glycerin, sodium hyaluronate.
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: dimethicone, persea gratissima fruit extract.
ExfoliationRetinyl palmitateNot delivered
“Lime Caviar removes dead skin cells to uncover a smoother surface.”
This product might help exfoliate the skin with retinyl palmitate, but this ingredient is not the most effective.
Evens skin toneSide benefit · Retinyl palmitateMay help
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: retinyl palmitate.

Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
