One of the last times I saw my mother, she said: "Since I use skin creams wrinkles are multiplying... ". I guess she was joking. She has always had a very fresh face, thanks to the fact that she never sunbathes. But she does not protect her face with creams. And if until now she thought they were nice but unnecessary, at 74 she's changing mentality after discovering all the new fine lines and wrinkles arising.
And so, when I asked her if she could help me review the line Isodense by Uriage for skins over 50 (Uriage is a brand acquired three years ago by the Spanish giant Puig which produces fragrances such as Valentino and Prada) she agreed immediately. I was afraid that, as usual, she used the creams to soften her hands. Instead, she let me massage her face with the serum first, then the moisturizer and then the eye cream. Twice a day after a good cleaning.
Si tratta creme rosate, molto leggere, a rapido assorbimento, che vengono dalla ricerca biotecnologica. Contengono peptidi biomimetici, molecole che mimano l'azione di alcune importanti proteine della pelle giovane. E' presente anche un complesso brevettato, fatto non così frequente nelle creme, perché i brevetti costano.
These creams are rosy, very light, fast absorbing, coming from the biotech research. They contain biomimetic peptides, molecules that mimic the action of some important skin proteins in the young people. There's also a patented complex, not so frequent in creams, because patents cost.
Quale è stato l'effetto su mia mamma? Dal punto di vista sensoriale ottimo ("Mi sento fresca e tonica", ha detto, chiedendomi se le potevo lasciare le creme). Il contorno occhi ha lavorato bene su borse e occhiaie, il siero, con forte azione liftante, ha migliorato l'aspetto generale, aiutato poi dall'idratazione della crema. Chiaro che un vasetto non può fare miracoli e togliere 20-30 anni. Ma dare l'idea di un viso più luminoso e sano sì.
What was the effect on my mom? "I feel fresh and toned she said", wondering if I could leave her the creams. The eye serum has worked well on dark circles and puffiness, while the serum, with a strong lifting action, has improved the overall look helped by the moisturizer. A jar can not work miracles and take away 20-30 years. But it gives the idea of a more bright and healthy face.
