Cream against wrinkles and loss of firmness

Uriage Isodense Cream

Here's what they write to us about this product anti-aging skin on the website of an online cosmetics store Uriage:

1. uriage thermal spring water, aqua - thermal water Uriage.
2. caprylic/capric triglyceride - obtained from coconut oil and glycerin. Emollient high quality, rich in fatty acids that restore damaged skin surface, moisturizes the skin, prevents moisture loss. Has anti-inflammatory properties. Claims that this ingredient is comedogenic are not supported by research.
3. butyrospermum parkii (shea butter) — Shea Butter, or shea butter. One of the best cosmetic ingredients, rich in antioxidants and fatty acids. Softens and moisturizes the skin, restores natural moisturizing factor on the surface of the skin.
4. cetearyl isononanoate - belongs to a large group of fatty acids of plant or animal origin. Fatty acids are identical to those found in the skin. Restores damaged skin barrier and participates in the formation of natural moisturizing factor, protecting the skin from damage by free radicals. Used in cosmetics as emollients, emulsion thickeners.
5. PTFE - polytetrafluoroethylene, emulsion thickener . Under normal conditions it is absolutely inert.
6. cetearyl ethylhexanoate is a synthetic ester used as a spermaceti substitute. Emollient. Softens the skin.
7. sucrose polystearate - Binds and holds water molecules around itself, moisturizing the skin and creating good conditions for the functioning of all skin cells.
8. glycerin - humectant.
9. isodecyl neopentanoate - emollient, softens the skin and makes it smooth. Improves the penetration of other cream ingredients.
10. propylheptyl caprylate, cetyl alcohol, pentaerythrityl distearate, sodiumstearoyl glutamate, butylene glycol

Of the active ingredients listed in the advertisement, only Shea Butter. The rest are either such a big “company secret” that you can’t even write about it as part of a cream, or they simply don’t exist, and the advertising does not correspond to reality.

This cream is from Uriage - a good mixture of emollients, suitable for normal and dry skin.

The trouble is that emollients “work” only with the stratum corneum of the epidermis, as if “smoothing” the horny scales and creating the effect of smooth skin. This is important, of course, but on the processes skin aging these substances have no effect.

Uriage Isodense Eye Contour Care Eye Cream

Well, let's read an advertisement about this eye cream from Uriage:

1. uriage thermal spring water - thermal water Uriage.
2. butylene glycol - retains moisture in the surface layers of the skin, is an emulsifier and surfactant, and promotes deeper penetration of other active ingredients of cosmetics.
3. isodecyl neopentanoate - emollient, softens the skin and makes it smooth. Improves the penetration of other cream ingredients.
4. propylheptylcaprylate - emollient, softens the skin, makes it silky and smooth. Helps even out skin tone.
5. PTFE - see above.
6. Squalane is an unsaturated natural hydrocarbon classified as a carotenoid. It was first isolated from shark liver in Japan in 1916. Currently, it is mainly obtained from extra virgin olive oil or from amaranth seed oil. But natural squalene is quickly oxidized by atmospheric oxygen. Therefore, in cosmetics it is not squalene that is used, but its synthetic hydrogenated version - squalane, obtained from organic fatty acids. Squalane is heat stable and does not oxidize upon contact with air. The squalane molecule is similar in its chemical composition to the squalene of human sebum, so it is very well integrated into the lipid layer of the skin barrier and restores it. Squalane increases skin elasticity, accelerates its regeneration, smoothes out fine wrinkles. Suitable for sensitive skin. It increases local immunity, which is why it is often used in the formulation of products for oily, inflamed skin.
7. Glycerin is a standard humectant.
8. pentaerythrityl distearate - synthetic emollient, creating a comfortable skin condition.
9. polyethylene is a synthetic component that regulates the consistency of the product.
10. sucrose polystearate, polyacrylate-13, sodium stearoyl glutamate, polyisobutene, phenoxyethanol, cetyl alcohol, dimethicone, hydrogenated polyisobutene, alcohol, chlorphenesin

ATTENTION! this was not the complete composition and, thanks to my attentive reader, I am publishing the full compound and my opinion about this tool, accordingly, will be somewhat different))

2. Ectoin - improves skin condition, auxiliary ingredient in cosmetics, emulsion stabilizer.
3. Lecithin - lecithin is a phospholipid found in egg yolk and is part of the membranes of plant and animal cells. A very valuable cosmetic ingredient. Restores damaged cell membranes, is widely used in cosmetics as an emollient and water-saving agent. Restores natural moisturizing factor on the skin surface. An excellent emulsifier, used in the food industry.
4. o-Cymen-5-Olhydroxyethylcellulose - preservative, non-toxic to the skin.
5. Citric Acid - citric acid, mainly used as an auxiliary substance for acidifying the environment.
6. Acetyl Dipeptide-1 Cetyl Ester is part of a protein molecule consisting of 2 amino acids. This is an active molecule that transmits signals to skin cells, for example, about damage to collagen fibers and the need to synthesize new fibers. By applying peptides to the surface of the skin, we try to “convince” skin cells that “it’s time to synthesize new collagen, since many fragments of destroyed proteins have appeared on the surface of the skin.” Improves skin condition.
7. Mica - a natural mineral - mica, is included in cosmetic products to add radiance and shine.
8. Leontopodium Alpinum Flower/Leaf Extract - Alpine edelweiss extract is one of the best ingredients used in cosmetics. It is simply a storehouse of antioxidants, protects collagen fibers from destruction by enzymes, and has an anti-inflammatory effect.

The cream base consists of emollients and humidifiers, butylene glycol ensures good penetration of active ingredients into the deeper layers of the skin and is also a moisturizer; squalane softens the skin, restores the skin barrier and is very well tolerated by the skin, as it is identical in composition to human sebum.

Lecithin — restores damaged cell membranes; There is a plant antioxidant, peptide. Particles mica smooth the surface of the skin and have reflective properties. Hyaluronic acid moisturizes the skin.

P.S. I would be happy to rate all these products as “good”, they do not contain substances harmful to the skin, they will soften and moisturize the skin well.

But in advertising Uriage It is stated that these products are intended for anti-aging skin, these are the means Anti-Age, and at the same time they do not include either active antioxidants in sufficient concentration, or vitamins, or substances that improve the interaction of cells with each other. There aren't even sun filters.

The question is, what ingredients can we use to slow down the aging process of the skin?

Of course, you might think that there is some kind of “company secret”, but other companies include active ingredients in the list of ingredients. Anti-Age substances!
