Jan Marini Marini Juveneck Neck Cream

Based on the ingredients included, "Jan Marini - Marini Juveneck Neck Cream" works well for moisturizing the skin. As we expect from a proper moisturizer, the formula includes a combo of effective humectants and emollients. These are the two different types of ingredients that are essential for improving the skin hydration and supporting a healthy skin barrier. Panthenol, dipotassium glycyrrhizate, glycerin, hyaluronic acid and sodium hyaluronate in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (avena sativa kernel extract, glycine soja oil, triticum vulgare germ oil, dimethicone and squalane) 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 moistruizer also contains peptides (acetyl decapeptide-3 0.30% - 0.75%, oligopeptide-24 0.20% - 0.80%, oligopeptide-24 0.95% - 1.45% and acetyl decapeptide-3 23.00% - 34.00%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, 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 peptides in skincare are helpful. They 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 formulation also uses an effective concentration of panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) - about 0.60% - 1.40%. Panthenol helps strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration and reduce inflammation in skin.
• Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate in this product (1.50% - 2.20%) can also further help improve the skin barrier. It might be able to calm down inflammation and reduce sensitivity. Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is an active compound from the licorice root.
