Anti-agingAdenosine, Prunus amygdalus dulcis oil + 2 moreStrong evidence
“Targeting both fine lines and wrinkles, you’ll benefit from a smoother-looking surface that appears to be more youthful for a revitalised, energised finish.”
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.
MoisturizingPersea gratissima oil, Helianthus annuus seed oil + 13 moreGood evidence
“Anti-ageing and hydrating, the blend of Shea Butter, Candelilla Wax and Avocado Oil help to lock in essential moisture, ensuring suppleness that’s free from dry patches.”
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: helianthus annuus seed oil, simmondsia chinensis seed oil.
