The reality is that Shiseido does not provide ingredients lists on any of their products. They provide only the basic claims and not any real information. For this among other reasons, we would not actually suggest buying this product if you are serious about getting rid of your wrinkles or even protecting your skin from future wrinkles.

Renuvie Age Defying Compound ingredients include DEIONIZED WATER, ARGIRELINE (ACETYL HEXAPEPTIDE-8), PEPTION-5 (PENTAPEPTIDE-19), (PALMITOYL PENTAPEPTIDE-4), (OLIGOPEPTIDE-29), (OCTAPEPTIDE-4), (DECAPEPTIDE-7), DMAE, ALA, DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL, CETANOL, GLYCERIN, LIMNANTHES ALBA (MEADOWFOAM) SEED OIL, WATER * PROPYLENE GLYCOL * ARCTIUM LAPPA ROOT EXTRACT * CITRUS MEDICA LIMONUM (LEMON) FRUIT EXTRACT * HUMULUS LUPULUS (HOPS) EXTRACT * HYPERICUM PERFORATUM EXTRACT * SALVIA OFFICINALIS (SAGE) LEAF EXTRACT * CALENDULA OFFICINALIS FLOWER EXTRACT * SAPONARIA OFFICINALIS LEAF, BEESWAX, JOJOBA OIL, APRICOT KERNEL OIL, MACADAMIA NUT OIL, CARTHANUS TINCTORIUS (SAFFLOWER) SEED OIL, ADENOSINE, SODIUM HYALURONATE (1%), GLYCERYL STEARATE * PEG100 STEARATE, CAVIAR EXTRACT, HYDROLYZED EXTENSIN, POLYACRYLAMIDE * C13 ~ C14 ISOPARAFFIN * LAURETH-7, DIMETHICONE, CARBOMER, TRIETHANOLAMINE, GOLD, METHYLPARABEN, PROPYLPARABEN, DISODIUM EDTA, PERFUME.

The Renuvie Age Defying Compound is strait forward and lists all its ingredients for your fair evaluation. They use every needed ingredient to protect and renew the skin and then some. With this day cream, you will feel it when first applied. But within minutes, it will soak deep into your pores, and you will be left with a soft and moisturized, yet not heavy or greasy feeling. Renuvie incorporates all the best wrinkle fighting technologies and innovations, and they also provide the average customer with a 3 piece kit including this revolutionary day cream for the best possible results.

Prevera ingredients include argireline, peption-5, oligopeptide, octapeptide, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, Dimethicone, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Decapeptide-7, Dipropylene Glycol, Cetahol, Beeswax, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Limnanthes Alba, Glycosyl Trehalose, Adenosine, Water, Propylene Glycol, Arctium Lappa Root Extract, Citrus Medica Limonum Fruit Extract, Humulus Lupulus Extract, Hypericum Perforatum Extract, Salvia Officinalis Leaf Extract, Clendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Saponaria Officinalis Leaf, Caviar Extract, Dimethicone, Polyacrylamide, C13 ~ C14 Isaparaffin, Laureth-7, Methylparaben, Triethanolamine, Propylparaben, Carbomer, Disodium EDTA, Perfume.

Prevera has the best peptides to both act quickly and work to rebuild the skin for lasting results. It also has the best moisturizers that will work their way into your skin without clogging the pores or leaving a heavy feeling behind. It has no potentially harmful irritants, and Prevera truly is equal to and in some cases superior to $200 or even $400 products.

Ole Henriksen Herbal Day Creme ingredients include Octinoxate 7.5%, Oxybenzone 2.0%, Meridamate 3.0%, Water (Aqua), Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oilm, Glycerin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Squalane, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Oil, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Dimethicone, Stearic Acid, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Polysorbate 80, Sorbitan Oleate, Carbomer, Potassium Hydroxide, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Hexylene Glycol, Citral, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Citronellol, Eugenol, Annatto (CI 75120)

The Ole Henriksen Herbal Day Creme uses ingredients that could actually work as potential irritants that would make your skin more sensitive to the sun and do more damage rather than protecting it. And like we said before, most of the ingredients they focus on are antioxidants and not actual wrinkle fighters or protectors for that matter. There is really no reason to buy this product.

We could not find an actual ingredients list for any Lancome products, including the Lancome Primordiale Skin Recharge Cream SPF 15.

Kinerase Ultimate Day Moisturizer ingredients include Water, Saccharide Isomerate, Prunun Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Cetyl Alcohol, Squalane, Algae Extract, PEG-20 Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate, Glycerin, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate, Kinetin, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, Tromethamine, Carbomer, Lecithin, Plankton Extract, Arabidopsis Thaliana Extract, Diazolidinyl Urea, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Citric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Trisodium NTA, Ethylenediamine Triacetic Acid, Trisodium Salt.

Kinerase Ultimate Day Moisturizer has a couple of ingredients that would fight skin damage. But they only use extremely small amounts, which would be denoted by the fact that those ingredients fall to the bottom of the list. Most of the ingredients are unrecognizable even if you are looking mostly for moisturizers. Kinerase is not the day cream you are looking for, for any purpose.

Epuri Multi Protection ingredients include DEIONIZED WATER, ADIPIC ACID, NEOPENTYLGLYCOL CROSSPOLYMER, AQUA, DIMETHICONE/HYDROXYPROPYL METHYLCELLULOSE, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, DIAZOLIDINYL UREA, IODOPROPYNYL BUTYLCARBAMATE, DMAE, ALA, CAMELLIA SINENSIS LEAF EXTRACT (GREENTEA EXTRACT), PEPTION-5 (PENTAPEPTIDE-19), (PALMITOYL PENTAPEPTIDE-4), (OLIGOPEPTIDE-29), (OCTAPEPTIDE-4), (DECAPEPTIDE-7), DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL, CETANOL, GLYCERIN, LIMNANTHES ALBA(MEADOWFOAM) SEED OIL, WATER * PROPYLENE GLYCOL * ARCTIUM LAPPA ROOT EXTRACT * CITRUS MEDICA LIMONUM(LEMON) FRUIT EXTRACT * HUMULUS LUPULUS(HOPS)EXTRACT * HYPERICUM PERFORATUM EXTRACT * SALVIA OFFICINALIS(SAGE) LEAF EXTRACT * CALENDULA OFFICINALIS FLOWER EXTRACT * SAPONARIA OFFICINALIS LEAF, TITANIUM DIOXIDE * ALUMINUM HYDROXIDE * STEARIC ACID * POTASSIUM CETYL PHOSPHATE * WATER, BEESWAX, JOJOBA OIL, MACADAMIA NUT OIL, CARTHANUS TINCTORIUS (SAFFLOWER) SEED OIL, ADENOSINE, SODIUM HYALURONATE(1%), GLYCERYL STEARATE/PEG100 STEARATE, HYDROLYZED EXTENSIN, DIMETHICONE, METHYLPARABEN, PROPYLPARABEN, DISODIUM EDTA, PERFUME

There are several different peptides, which are essential to rebuilding the skin and renewing its natural production of collagen, elastin, and other basic building blocks and proteins of a youthful appearance. It also uses other protectants, wrinkle fighters, and ingredients essential to any good day cream or wrinkle fighting moisturizer in general. Epuri Multi Protection is a natural moisturizer truly meant for the masses.

Clarins Extra Firming Day Cream does not provide a full ingredients list, instead claiming to use stimulen, euglena and hop, soft wheat proteins, white tea, succory dock cress, and glycofirm as their main ingredients. Most of these ingredients are essentially unrecognizable and will not be found in any other product, at least not under those names. This is really no surprise. But at the same point in time, we always somehow hope for better. Either way, Clarins Extra Firming Day Cream will not benefit your skin, especially not in terms of anti aging.

I mean microdermabrasion is one of a few spa treatments for skincare that actually works. It’s not the best way to go, because they take a metal brush and brush away layers of skin, it’s a bit scary to be quite honest. But on the other hand, they have fat injections, which frankly I hate having a fat face, I hate having the square face that I already have, it is horrible. So I don’t know why people would want to put more fat into their face. I mean I understand fat people tend to look younger, but come on!

The other big one is actually chemical peels. Yes, chemical peels can be performed in medical spas, and they often are. Well that and various other things. But chemical peels are one I really don’t like, because quite frankly they damage the skin while not really doing you any favors. But these are the kinds of things along with botox that you will often find in spa treatments for skincare. There is always a catch in other words.

I must admit however, I never did wear day cream until my late twenties. I somehow figured, ‘why on earth do I need to wear a cream in the day time?’ Well of course, there is a lesson to learn on everything especially with the decision we make in life. So, when the sun’s hard rays started to take a toll on my face, I looked into a day cream!

Certainly there are other creams out there, and I tried several mind you, but I had always used Neutrogena products as a teenager for my acne. So when I started hunting about for a decent one day cream, how ironic it was that I was lead back to my first chosen products!

The Energy Renewal lotion, as most of their products, has literally no harsh smell. Plus, it also wakes your skin up after you apply it! I feel like I’m glowing afterward and my skin feels fresh and alive. As with all products, try it and judge it based on your experience. If you have a very good one with this product, please leave us a comment or two!
