Everything you need to know about Skincare Generics Hydrating Cream

Overview

What it is

Key ingredients and their functions

  • Ascophyllum Nodosum (Algae) Extract - moisturizing agent

  • Glycerin - humectant
  • Beeswax - emollient
  • Lanolin - emollient
  • Petrolatum - occlusive
  • Mineral Oil - occlusive
  • Niacinamide - skin conditioning agent

How it works

The cream functions by combining a variety of ingredients that aim to improve the appearance of dry skin. Algae extract and kelp concentrate are included as moisturizing agents, potentially helping to retain skin moisture. Glycerin attracts water to the skin, serving as a humectant. Occlusive agents such as petrolatum and mineral oil create a barrier to reduce moisture loss, while beeswax and lanolin act as emollients to soften and smooth the skin's surface. Niacinamide is present as a skin conditioning agent, potentially aiding in overall skin health.

This cream is an excellent dupe of La Mer. It gives me the same healthy glow and moisture as the regular at a much better price.

I love La Mer, but used it sparingly. At the Skincare Generics price, I can slather away on my hands, arms, and neck. I wake up in the morning with same results as before. Glowy, dewy skin, especially on my neck.

As a longtime La Mer user for the past 15+ years, I have tried other products to see if they would compare but nothing came even close…until now. Skincare Generics Hydrating Cream is as close as I’ve ever tried and my skin feels great from the moment I apply the product. I highly recommend you give it a try. I was skeptic at first, not thinking anything could come even close to La Mer, but it does!

About the brand

I'm Will, the founder of Skincare Generics. Our purpose is simple. We are making luxury skincare affordable and accessible. We've carefully crafted the finest generic versions (dupes) of skincare's most popular products and have made them reasonably priced for everyone. I created Skincare Generics because I believe there should be a generic alternative to luxury skincare, much like the generic alternatives to branded prescription drugs. In the pharmaceutical world they are called generics. In the beauty industry they are called dupes. We truly believe that you should be celebrating yourself, your unique beauty — prioritizing yourself and your skin above all the fancy, overhyped luxury skincare brands. So as of today….the best luxury skincare dupes are now available to YOU!
