You often write to me, they say, how to buy cosmetics in Fix-Price, because the good is not worth a penny. I have often written that do not buy all the makeup, but only the one that is not afraid to try, very much I bypass the party. Today decided to make out the cream that would never have bought for themselves. I was just amused as cream with snail mucin can cost 55 rubles. After all, in itself snail mucin - powerful anti-aging ingredient that can not be cheap :-)
Well, she could not resist the like, and decided to buy it specially to visually show you how to cheat the manufacturer.
Now very popular secret snail cream (about snail mucin already written in previous articles) is predominantly Korean creams. And then even the cream of Russian production were trying to pass off the Korean writing on the bottle a couple of characters.
That's the cream.
aqua, ethylhexyl Stearate, isopropyl palmitate, butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter, glycerin, potassium c12-16 alkyl phosphate, glyceryl stearate, snail secretion filtrate, macadamia seed oil, cetearyl alcohol, dimethicone, pentaerythrityl distearate, sodium cetearyl sulfate, tocopheryl acetate, sodium hyaluronate, bht, acrylates / c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, disodium edta, triethanolamine, phenoxyethanol, methyl paraben, propyl paraben, ethyl paraben, parfum
- Aqua (Water) - well, everything is clear, I think no need to explain. Nice plus that water occupies the first place in the lineup. And now rare to find a cream without water in the first place in the lineup.
- Ethylhexyl Stearate (Ethylhexyl stearate) - emollient, prevents moisture loss from the skin protects the product against drying, the solvent is oil-based. Safe.
- Isopropyl Palmitate (Isopropyl Palmitate) - a natural component to soften the skin. Safe, but it is possible idiosyncrasy. For the first allergen went.
- Vutyrospermum Rarkii (shea) Vutter (Shi shea butter) - and here is the first active component to work with the skin. And this, as we see, not mucin. Yes, shea butter (Shea) has moisturizing properties, reduces the depth of facial wrinkles. But! Firstly, there is a not in the top three in the composition, ie, the concentration of wetting agent is so-so. Secondly, this is not the snail mucin, which krasutesya on the label!
- Glycerin (Glycerin) - a good conductor of useful components in the skin, but fifth position in the composition as it alludes to the fact that its low concentration will give our skin not only useful from the cream (and useful yet little goes to composition)
- Potassium c12-16 alkil phosphate - viscosity. Allergen.
- Glyceryl stearate (Glyceryl stearate) - nonionic surfactant, emulsifier, softens and moisturizes the skin, film former. Safe.
- Snail Secretion Filtrate (Snail mucin) - hurray! He still is in this cream, albeit at 8th place, but there is. It improves skin elasticity, moisturizes, heals, softens the skin. And in this cream is clearly not the major active component.
- Macadamia seed oil (Macadamia) - soothes, nourishes, softens, soothes, moisturizes.
- Setearyl alcohol (Cetearyl alcohol) - a binder, an emulsifier, a natural emollient.
- Dimethicone (Dimethicone) - silicone polymer prevents redness and irritation. Dry skin can clog pores.
- Rentaerythrityl distearate (Penaeritritil distearate) - structurant.
- Sodium cetearyl sulfate (Cetearyl sodium sulfate), - another surfactant.
- Tocopheryl acetate (Tocopherol acetate) - nourishes, softens and moisturizes the skin.
- Sodium hyaluronate (Hyaluronic acid) - so we got to the hyaluronic acid. Rejuvenates, moisturizes and maintains optimum moisture balance of the dermis, stop the destruction of the dermis
- Vht (Butiogidroksitoluol) - antioxidant. Can cause allergic reactions and irritation, affect the endocrine system.
- Acrylates / C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Srosspolymer - another allergen
- disodium edta (Disodium EDTA) - antioxidant enhances the effect of preservatives which increases skin permeability. May cause irritation.
- Triethanolamine (Triethanolamine) - surfactant, flavor, emulsifier acidity. Toxic, is a strong allergen.
- Rhenoxyethanol (Phenoxyethanol) - preservative, can cause irritation and allergies.
- Methyl paraben (Methylparaben) - preservative. It can cause allergies and disorders of the endocrine system.
- Rropyl paraben (Propyl) - preservative. Toxic, can cause allergies. Harmful during pregnancy.
- Ethyl paraben (Ethylparaben)
- Rarfum (Perfume) - perfume, which can be either natural or synthetic origin.
That's all, part of an impressive, so many substances that cause issues are at the end, which gives the course a small plus cream, but a very small plus. But stated in large letters on the label secret snails and hyaluronic acid contained in this cream very much in small proportions.
Moisturize will, but it has to work not on the snail mucin, and shea butter. Mucin here so I passed by, for the company to help :-)
Impressed in the composition, of course, the presence of certain surfactants and synthetic agents that are found in the peeling means. My God, that's for sure moisturizer? :-) Some vinaigrette composed, honestly.
Well, I was not surprised after some preliminary analysis of the composition that, when opened tube. The smell of the soap agent, decided to put a little on the forehead and immediately washed off, because I felt a slight burning sensation. Comments about this cream is also not the best: some went to an allergy, others dry the skin.
To buy or not - it is, of course, you. But I would not advise. The fact that the manufacturer on the package we hung noodles on the ears. If you really points to the third tube snail and large letters write SNAIL (translated as "snail"), means snail mucin should go in the top three (in the worst case - in the top five) components composition. But not on the 8th place, and after allergen.
