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.

Very pleased

I bought this with a number of products after a review in, I think, the Observer. Price and ethics were good, and the company is British so I decided to give it a go, and I'm really happy with how it feels on my skin, which is quite sensitive. Been using it for a couple of weeks now and I see and feel no dryness or reddening so I'm very happy. Will continue to use this and other products from qanda.

Very good cream

Very pleased with this item, there is lots of it in the jar and it was delivered quickly. It is nice to support an Independent British company rather than the huge toiletry companies, so I will definitely be purchasing this again!

Great product, good price

I've been using this for about a week, it's smooth, absorbs fast, non greasy and feels quite soothing on the skin. A little goes a long way. I like the company ethos and would definitely buy this again.

Good moisturiser

Non greasy super absorbent moisturiser. I use after applying serum. Light enough to use day and night. I have mature skin not dry not greasy. Good value. Good packaging -was lovely to receive and open but mainly it's a moisturiser I'll use until it's finished!
