“intensive hydration to the skin”
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:
glucosamine hcl, glycerin.
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: caprylic/capric triglyceride, dimethicone.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: oligopeptide-24, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7
Anti-aging5 ingredients credited for this claimModerate support
“reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles”
This product contains oligopeptide-24, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19, palmitoyl oligopeptide, palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7. These ingredients 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.
Evens skin tone2 ingredients credited for this claimModerate support
“brighter and more luminous complexion”

Product summary
Based on the ingredients included, "RéVive - Intensite Creme Lustre Night" works well for moisturizing the skin. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. RéVive - Intensite Creme Lustre Night ticks this box. Humectants in this product (glucosamine hcl, glycerin, butylene glycol 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 (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, cetyl dimethicone, glycine soja oil, glycosaminoglycans and jojoba esters) 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
- We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 0.25% - 0.50%, palmitoyl oligopeptide 0.35% - 0.60%, palmitoyl hexapeptide-19 0.25% - 0.45% and oligopeptide-24 0.20% - 0.40%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. Peptides might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
