Which skin care products are best for anti-aging and anti-wrinkle?

As people age, their faces will gradually age, and the most obvious change is the increasing number of wrinkles on the face. So today let’s take a look at which brand is the best in this regard.

On June 21, 2017, Shiseido launched a new anti-wrinkle eye cream, ELIXIR enriched wrinkle cream S, which can effectively improve wrinkles around the eyes and lips, and has been recognized by relevant Japanese government departments. This is the second anti-wrinkle skin care product to be officially certified by Japan after POLA. The new Elixir eye cream has a more moisturizing texture and excellent ductility. Can quickly penetrate the skin. It has a very good improvement effect around the eyes and lips.

Shiseido's main ingredient, "pure retinol", can promote the synthesis of hyaluronic acid in the skin. Simply put, it increases the moisture content of the skin to improve wrinkles, repairs disordered skin texture, stabilizes the skin and prevents oxidation, maximizes the effect of retinol, and has been recognized by relevant Japanese agencies for wrinkle removal.

Retinol is actually vitamin A, which can improve wrinkles and restore cell vitality. In fact, there are quite a few skin care products containing retinol, but because it is an extremely unstable ingredient, it is very easily destroyed by temperature changes and oxidation, so its effect cannot be maximized.

Shiseido conducted an effectiveness test on ELIXIR Anti-Wrinkle Cream, comparing the use of ELIXIR Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream (above) with the use of an eye cream that does not contain "pure retinol" ingredients (below). After 9 weeks, it was found that the new ELIXIR eye cream had a significant wrinkle-removing effect, with the wrinkle depth value reduced from 4.75 to 4.0.

POLA found that wrinkles are caused by proteases, while Shiseido targets fine lines caused by dry skin. As we age, the water-retaining capacity of the skin's stratum corneum decreases, metabolism becomes disrupted, and the hyaluronic acid (HA) content decreases, causing the skin to become dry, which in turn causes wrinkles.

ELIXIR Anti-Wrinkle Cream mainly promotes the skin to produce hyaluronic acid and improves fine lines caused by dryness.

POLA Anti-wrinkle

2016: 640 women aged 20-60

We conducted a survey on the degree of wrinkle trouble.

About 60% of women mind wrinkles.

40% of young women in their 20s mind wrinkles.

The principle of POLA is an enzyme - neutrophil elastase. When exposed to UV rays, pollution, or damage from smoking and drinking, this enzyme is activated to break down collagen and elastin to rebuild the skin. Generally, young people or children can recover while dissolving. However, if you are older or stay up late or smoke, your wrinkles will become deeper and deeper due to poor recovery ability that cannot keep up with the dissolution speed.

Because it can act on the dermis, which is considered impossible in the field of cosmetics, this is also the biggest feature of POLA wrinkle removal. It acts on the dermis, which is the deep layer of the epidermis, and can truly solve the wrinkle problem from the root.

After 12 weeks of testing, POLA saw improvement in wrinkles in 70% of the subjects, reducing the wrinkle depth value from 3.5 to 3.25, and reducing wrinkle depth by 34% to the maximum extent.

POLA's products have always been at the forefront of the world's cosmetics industry. The company's research institute has developed leading technology, with more than 200 ingredients and formulas that have been granted world patents. It has also won the International Federation of Cosmetics Technology (IFSCC) Best of Show Award many times.
