Product Information

Full details

This Shiseido Elixir Retinol Power Wrinkle Cream BA is designed for adults seeking to address visible signs of aging, particularly wrinkles around the eyes and mouth. Its key benefit is the advanced anti-aging power from pure retinol, which aims to improve wrinkles, enhance skin plumpness, and boost resilience. A crucial caveat is the need for diligent sun protection during the day when using retinol products. The cream also promotes skin hydration by stimulating hyaluronic acid production and features a soothing Aqua Floral scent for a pleasant application experience. It is classified as a Quasi-drug, indicating its efficacy for specific skin concerns.

FAQs

How often should I use this wrinkle cream?

It is recommended to use the cream at the end of your morning and evening skincare routine. For initial use, you may start with fewer applications per week and gradually increase as your skin tolerates it.

Can I use this cream around my eyes?

Yes, this cream is specifically designed to target concerns like wrinkles around the eyes and mouth. Apply gently with a patting motion.

What is the role of Tranexamic Acid in this cream?

Tranexamic Acid is an active ingredient that can help improve skin tone and address concerns like hyperpigmentation, working alongside retinol to enhance overall skin appearance.

Do I need to wear sunscreen when using this product?

Absolutely. Retinol can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. It is crucial to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every morning to protect your skin and maintain the product's effectiveness.

What does 'Quasi-drug' classification mean?

In some regions, 'Quasi-drug' indicates a product that has a mild effect on the human body and is regulated differently than cosmetics or pharmaceuticals, often meaning it contains specific active ingredients intended for a particular therapeutic or preventative effect.

How much product should I use per application?

A small pearl-sized amount is sufficient for each application to cover the target areas. Using too much will not increase efficacy and may lead to irritation.

What should I do if I experience adverse reactions?

Discontinue use immediately and consult a dermatologist. Symptoms might include severe redness, itching, burning, or peeling.

Troubleshooting

Skin redness or peeling after initial use.

This can be a normal initial reaction to retinol. Reduce frequency of application to every other day or a few times a week, and ensure you are using a good moisturizer. Gradually increase use as your skin adjusts. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

Cream feels sticky or doesn't absorb well.

Ensure you are applying only a small, pearl-sized amount. Pat the cream gently into the skin rather than rubbing. Allow a few minutes for absorption before applying any subsequent products or makeup.

Product effectiveness seems reduced.

Ensure you are storing the product correctly, away from light and heat. Double-check that the cap is securely closed after each use. Confirm you are using it consistently every day, and always apply sunscreen in the morning.

Compatibility: This cream is designed for adult use as part of a daily skincare regimen. It can be layered with other non-active skincare products.

  • Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
