marisska review for Green Tea Collagen Cream

🌟🌟 𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝕊𝕂𝕀ℕ ℍ𝕆𝕌𝕊𝔼 𝔾𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕋𝕖𝕒 ℂ𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕒𝕘𝕖𝕟 ℂ𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕞 🌟🌟 🍵 𝐈𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 👉 Moisturizers/humectants/emollients: Glycerin, Squalane, Sodium Hyaluronate, Macadamia seed oil 👉 Soothing: Aloe Leaf Extract, Green Tea Leaf Extract, Panthenol, Allantoin 👉 Hydrolyzed collagen 🍵 𝐌𝐲 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 (for reference, I have combination-oily skin prone to acne, some areas prone to dehydration and recently some sensitized areas) I've been using this cream for a few weeks, in all my AM and in most of my PM routines. It works nicely with other skincare products, does not cause pilling and is absorbed quickly, allowing sunscreen application in a matter of minutes. I had already used products with collagen and green tea and loved them for their plumping and soothing/anti-acne properties, respectively, but it was the first time I tried squalane and macadamia seed oil as ingredients. Interestingly, squalane is a lipid naturally found in the skin, and its production slows down during our 20s and 30s, leading to drier and rougher texture. Macadamia seed oil is full of nourishing lipids, among them squalane. These two ingredients can help protect, regenerate and moisturize the skin, boosting keratin and collagen production. No wonder this product works great as a moisturizer! It leaves my skin looking plump and healthy, which I love, and hydration lasts a whole day/night. I did not find this cream particularly soothing though, but I already use other products to address this. It did not trigger acne nor cause any irritation, even when I had more sensitized areas due to retinoid use. The texture is that of a gel cream, and there’s a subtle fresh scent which I enjoy. Packaging-wise, it comes in an aesthetic plastic jar. I usually prefer skincare products in pumps or tubes as they are more hygienic. There’s an intermediate lid that closes tightly. It contains 50 mL and is really affordable! 💌 𝐌𝐲 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠: 4.5/5! Definitely recommend this moisturizer for normal and combination-oily skin, although it might not be moisturizing enough for dry skin.
