Face cream Librederm (Librederm) night “3D Hyaluronic filler”.
Hi all!
I would like to tell you about a new product from the Libriderm brand - the Hyaluronic 3D Filler night rejuvenating cream. The new line of products also includes lip balm, day cream and eye cream. I was very interested in these new products and I decided to start with a night cream, especially since it is impossible to resist buying a pharmaceutical product with the inscription “Non-injection anti-aging product of the latest generation.”
I ordered the cream through an online pharmacy [link]. (link to the cream), its price is 830 rubles, volume 30 ml.
Manufacturer's promises: Recommendations for using the cream:
My skin and age: I am 35 years old, I have combination skin with enlarged pores in the T-zone, I have nasolabial folds (appeared 2 years ago).
Expectations from the cream: I would like to slow down the aging process of the skin, activate collagen production, which actually corresponds to the description of the cream.
The manufacturer even makes a big statement and promises visible results within 7 days. ===================================================== ===========================
● First, let's look at the composition that really confused me:
1) Synthetic flavors.
There is a huge amount of them in this cream (in addition to parfum), but these are skin irritating and harmful components.
An important aspect:
With prolonged use of cosmetics rich in fragrances, the skin begins to lose its ability to regenerate itself, as all forces are worn out in the fight against micro-inflammations that arise due to irritants. The process of collagen production is also disrupted, and all this is not immediately visible on the surface. Fragrances prevent the skin from fighting signs of aging and wrinkles, being firmer and looking younger.
6 fragrances in the cream have an average level of danger. All these flavors are highly allergenic.
linalool.
hydroxysohexyl 3-cyclohexene carbox.
limonene. This component often causes irritation, allergic reactions and painful sensitivity to the sun.
butylphenyl methylpropinal. Phenol derivative, toxin.
alpha-isomethyl ionone.
hydroxycitronellal. At high concentrations it is toxic. Some countries have banned the use of this substance in the production of cosmetics and perfumes.
2) Silicones.
The number of different silicones in the cream is 4 pieces:
caprylyl methicone. It is not advisable to use if the skin is hypersensitive, prone to allergies and acne.
polymethylsilsesquioxane. Silicone resin. In products for the care of aging skin, it provides a “soft-focus” effect and light diffusion, correcting wrinkles and other skin irregularities. Visually hides skin imperfections.
dimethucone.
cetearyl methicone.
I don’t understand why there are silicones in the anti-aging night cream, which do not have any therapeutic effect and only create a visual effect. Typically, silicones are used in foundations and BB creams, where their presence is at least justified.
3) Components with a medium level of danger:
benzyl salicylate. You should not constantly use products containing this component. Included in the list of substances that cause allergic reactions.
disodium edta. Recognized as a carcinogen.
steareth-2.
phenoxyethanol. Studies have shown that phenoxyethanol negatively affects the condition of the skin and, what is most dangerous, does not have the best effect on the central nervous system and the reproductive function of both men and women. Phenoxyethanol is also attributed to a carcinogenic effect or the ability to provoke cancer.
4) High hazard component:
triethanolamine. Low molecular weight amino alcohol. The use of leave-in products containing this component is not recommended.
I would like to note that we are considering the composition of a pharmaceutical cream; what makes it dangerous for the skin is unknown.
5) Relatively safe synthetic components (have a low level of danger):
cetearyl alcohol. Fatty alcohol.
hydroxyethyl urea. Urea derivative. Moisturizing additive.
glyceryl stearate. Emulsifier.triisostearin. Synthetic softener.
steareth-21. Emulsifier.
isohexadecane.
peg-40 stearate.
ethylhexylglycerin. Preservative. There is a small risk of irritation and allergies.
acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer. Gelling agent.
6) Natural ingredients and oils:
polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate. Emulsifier.
butyrospermum parkii (shea butter). Shea Butter.
caprylic/caprictriglyceride. Emollient.
prunua amygdalus dulcis (sweet almond) oil. Almond oil.
aleurites moluccana seed oil. Kukui seed oil.
tocopherol (mixed), tocopheryl acetate. Vitamin E.
triticum vulgare (wheat) germ oil. Wheat germ oil.
sodium hyaluronate. Hyaluronic acid.
stevioside. Stevia.
beta-sitosterol. Plant phytosterol has an anti-inflammatory effect and also stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin.
squalene. A natural substance found in vegetable oils.
As we can see, the cream consists of 40% components potentially harmful to the skin, so what kind of skin rejuvenation can we talk about?
And hyaluronic acid, for example, is in 20th place.
==============================================================================
● Now about the cream itself:
The shelf life of the cream is 36 months, the shelf life of the opened cream is 6 months.
The cream has a very convenient dispenser that allows you to save money.
Cream characteristics:
Smell: light, pleasant.
White color.
Consistency: the cream is light, not greasy, completely absorbed.
==============================================================================
The effect of the cream and its disadvantages:
1) Provoked skin inflammation.
About the 3rd day of use, irritation (redness) and even acne began to appear on the skin (which I haven’t had for a very long time). But I already wrote above about the large number of harmful chemical components in the cream, which could cause inflammation.
2) I did not notice the promised smoothing of wrinkles, either after 7 days or after a month. There is a slight lifting effect only immediately after applying the cream and quickly disappears.
3) In the morning, the skin does not look rested and relaxed (as stated).
Pros:
The cream spreads easily over the skin and is quickly absorbed without leaving a greasy feeling.
==============================================================================
Conclusions:
— the cream does not rejuvenate, but only slightly masks the signs of skin aging. And the benefits of all medicinal oils and components are negated by the presence of chemicals in the composition.
- not suitable for all skin types.
- clogs pores and causes skin inflammation (due to the presence of silicones and harmful components in the composition).
I liked the anti-aging overnight leave-in mask with a good composition and 4 times cheaper than this cream.
Thank you for your attention.
