Just lượt thích the mask that I previously reviewed from the same line, this cream also contains 55% pesticide and chemical free Jeju green tea that has been fermented & matured for 100 days in two stages for maximum skin benefit. Green Tea Extract is a potent antioxidant source that helps to protect skin from không tính tiền radical damage, reduce inflammation, clear cell damage & repair wrinkles. When fermented, the effect is increased even further and the green tea takes on a blackened appearance, hence the hàng hóa name. Rich in Catechins, a group of natural compounds called Polyphenols that protect against UV radiation and environmental stressors, green tea also helps lớn inhibit collagenase, the enzymes that break the peptide bonds in collagen, thus promoting skin firmness và elasticity. EGCG in particular, fights against sun damage và enhances collagen production for firm, supple skin.

Also contributing strong antioxidant properties as well as anti-inflammatory effects are exotic extracts. Prickly Pear and Orchid Extracts get their strength primarily from flavonoid và polypenolic compounds. In addition to lớn antioxidant properties, Japanese Camellia also contains Omega-6 fatty acids which help moisturise, assisting Squalane which is very effective at helping khổng lồ hydrate, plump và soften skin without leaving any greasy residue. It also accelerates the speed with which cracked và chapped skin heals. Suitable for all skin types, it can help regulate excess oil production and enhance antioxidant activity.

Due to lớn its brightening ability, Citrus Unshiu Peel Extract helps to control melanin biosynthesis which in turn evens out skin tone & assists with the control of hyperpigmentation. A mild pH ranging between 5-8 defines Bacillus Ferment which relies on natural enzymes to clear dead skin cells lớn smooth the skin’s surface for younger looking skin. Acting as a soothing & skin-restoring agent, Adenosine has proven anti-wrinkle benefits due to its ability khổng lồ energize skin’s surface, helping it khổng lồ look smoother and younger. As it is naturally present in the body, it is a beneficial for all skin types.

the performance

The Innisfree black Green-Tea range is one of the more expensive from the brand. Tempted by the promise of anti-ageing delivered through potent antioxidants together with the excellent performance of the mask, I thought I would try the face cream… và it didn’t disappoint.

The presentation is typical of the brand who have a specific colour dedicated to lớn each range but consistent packaging across the board.

There are sufficient preservatives in the formula to lớn prevent sản phẩm contamination that a wide opening & finger dispensing may invite. I prefer a pump action but this is typical of most creams & not a problem. The cream itself looks very luxurious. It has a delicate, glossy rã colour and exhibits luxurious glide. It has a synthetic fragrance that smells lượt thích a perfume without resemblance khổng lồ green tea. I don’t lượt thích the addition as it doesn’t enhance the experience of this product, although the scent is not overly strong. Some may enjoy it however those with sensitivities lớn such additions may find it irritating. Personally, I had no adverse reaction but simply prefer my skincare fragrance free.

I used this as the last step of my routine và saved it for the winter when additional moisturising comfort might be required. I found the previous cream I used from the brand, the Olive Real power Cream too rich for my combination skin type và was warned that this one might be similarly received. Indeed it does have a very rich texture & would be overwhelming during the hotter weather unless your skin is dry. The slickness it has helps it lớn easily slip over the skin without any resistance. You can feel a thin film khung which helps keep the moisture locked in. I found I had khổng lồ apply it half an hour before bed to give it sufficient time to penetrate, otherwise, it would remain on the surface and adhere lớn the pillow. Due khổng lồ this drying time, I only ever used this cream in the evening. I imagine trying khổng lồ apply makeup over the đứng đầu without sufficient delay could be messy.

Provided these steps were followed, I found my skin would retain moisture & increase in suppleness & plumpness overnight, so it definitely moisturised well. The large amount (55%) of high quality, twice fermented green tea would also suggest extremely good antioxidant protection. I find it very difficult to declare observed improvements in the rate of skin ageing over a short period of time. This cream lasted me around three months with nightly use. Furthermore, how can you conclude a slowing of ageing without proper clinical conditions if you can’t compare your skin after using this hàng hóa for three months with what it would have looked like at this time without the cream? Nonetheless, given the formulation, I would anticipate good antioxidant long term protection.

Another solid sản phẩm from a great brand that I have grown lớn enjoy. An impressive ingredient list & good performance have earned this cream my tick of approval. I would strongly recommend it for those suffering skin dryness but would warn against using such a rich moisturiser if you giảm giá with an oily complexion or are sensitive to fragrance.
