L'Oréal Paris Age Perfect Cell Renewal Day Cream
Benefits
Promise: Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
L'Oréal Age Perfect Cell Renewal Day Cream contains Natecium and LHA to stimulate surface cell renewal and protect skin from free radicals.
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

Promise: Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
After 1 day, skin looks hydrated, increases elasticity and feels softer.
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, mannitol.
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, dimethiconol.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
mannitol | HIGH | ||
dimethicone | HIGH | ||
dimethiconol | HIGH |
Other benefit: Evens skin tone
The following ingredient (ingredients) in this product might be helpful, but there is no evidence to confirm that it actually works: capryloyl salicylic acid.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
capryloyl salicylic acid | MEDIUM | ||
yeast extract | LOW |
Other benefit: Exfoliation
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: capryloyl salicylic acid.
Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
---|---|---|---|
capryloyl salicylic acid | HIGH |
