What it is

Key ingredients and their functions

  • Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil - emollient

How it works

The face and neck cream leverages several key ingredients to enhance skin appearance. Griffonia Simplicifolia Seed Extract is intended to condition the skin and may support its elasticity. Sunflower Seed Oil acts as an emollient, helping to keep the skin soft. Cetearyl Alcohol and Glycearyl Stearate work as emulsifying agents, aiding in the stability of the product formulation. Grape Seed Oil adds moisture, while Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride provides additional emollient properties. Caffeine is included for its antioxidant properties, and Biosaccharide Gum-1 helps in maintaining skin moisture. Collectively, these ingredients aim to improve skin suppleness and contribute to a smoother appearance.

Excellent

I bought this after reading a review in a magazine and I have to say it has been the best cream I have bought and I would definitely recommend this to people that want to see a difference, I had a lot of wrinkles to the decolletage due to my love of the sun, and I have seen a massive change, and the price is amazing

Love it!

Started using this about a month ago and really pleased with the results. You only need a small amount to fully moisturise your face. My skin looks and feels so much better.

Lovely cream but not enough for my dry skin

Bought this cream as I was looking for a lighter moisturiser to use in the morning. It's a lovely texture, it smooths on and then sort of mattifies before it sinks in. The only reason I'm giving it a four stars is that I think it should be a bit clearer on the product page that it is a pretty light cream. My skin is very dry, so I wouldn't expect it to be enough necessarily on its own, but even combined with 5 drops of squalane by mid-afternoon my face is pretty dry again and I have to reapply.
