Ampoule Balm White truffle Anti Wrinkle Cream
This is a thick vegan cream absolutely loaded with skin-nourishing ingredients for intense anti-aging, brightening, and general moisture barrier goodness wrapped in a fancy gilded package.
White truffles are rich in fatty acids, anti-aging peptides, B vitamins, and Vitamin C to help repair skin, retain moisture, soften lines and wrinkles, fade dark spots, and improve texture. They are also said to reduce redness and inflammation.
Other ingredients included Niacinamide, Avocado Oil, Shea Butter, Oat Kernel Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides (6 of them) and Ceramide.
I used this as a night cream and, though it took a little while to fully sink in, my skin looked plump and smooth and was protected all night long. I could even feel the slip of the emollients when I washed my face the next morning. This is definitely not for oily skin and I would only suggest it for combo skin in winter weather. My fellow dry skin warriors and those wanting a great deal of anti-aging ingredients in one product would do well with this all-in-one cream to visibly improve their complexion.
There are several perfuming ingredients, but they are at the very end of the ingredients list and they didn’t cause much of a reaction on my sensitive skin apart from some minor temporary redness. The smell is kind of like a medicinal herbal scent that reminds me of how a grandmother would smell and I didn’t care for it. I think they could update the scent or get rid of these ingredients entirely.
It’s also worth noting that white truffles are rare and extremely expensive because they are only harvested a few months out of the year, are almost entirely in the Piedmont region of Italy, and must be sniffed out of the ground by specially trained animals. So just know that this cream and other white truffle-infused skincare will be more expensive.
