How to choose a good facial cream

What should you look for before purchasing your facial cream ?

1. In the ingredients it contains and those it does not contain, and in their quality.
2. In its texture . That it has a good level of absorption and is not greasy.
3. That suits your skin type .

1. Ingredients

Make sure your face cream does not contain petroleum derivatives. You can check the ingredient list and make sure there are no terms like "petrolatum", "parafinum liquidum", "vaseline", "mineral oil", "dimethicone", "cyclomethicone", "microcistaline wax", "ozokerit", "polydimethylcyclosixolane", "methylsilanol", "polyacryldimethylauramide", "PEG-(number)".

It has been proven that petroleum derivatives end up causing dehydration in the lower layers of the skin (which is precisely where it should not be dehydrated), and premature aging .

There is a long list of ingredients that a good face cream should not contain, but make sure that at least those listed here do not appear.
If you need more information about the differences between certified organic natural cosmetics and conventional cosmetics, click on this link , where you will find the different types of ingredients used in each case.

Make sure your face cream is based on plant-based ingredients.
A cream claiming to contain "natural ingredients" is not the same as a cream that is based solely on plant-based ingredients, since in most cases creams "with natural ingredients" contain only a tiny amount and most of the product's content is usually ingredients derived from petroleum.

2. Texture

You can tell a good face cream by its texture. Just because a cream is 100% natural is not enough . There are artisanal creams with good formulations, but with textures that are too greasy for our skin, especially for men's skin, which, as you well know, has specific needs.

You can tell a quality face cream because once it has been absorbed, it does not leave the skin oily.

3. Skin type

Normally, we talk about "face cream", but if you have oily skin , then the best thing for your skin is a Facial Gel like our Anti-Stress GEL . On the other hand, if you have dry skin , we recommend our Anti-Stress CREAM .

If you have combination skin or normal skin , it is best to combine both textures throughout the year : in winter, Cream , and in summer, Gel .

How can I distinguish a good facial cream ?

We recommend that you always look at the product's ingredient list and check that it does not contain any unwanted ingredients.

Our recommendation is to only choose a face cream that is formulated without petroleum derivatives and only with the highest quality plant extracts, cold-pressed vegetable oils and essential oils.

You can also check out other customers' reviews , and finally try it yourself to see how it feels on your skin. In the end, your opinion is the most important 😉

You should also consider what are the most important aspects of your face that you want to improve: are they wrinkles ?, sagging ?, flaky skin ?, or do you want to prevent all signs of aging?
In our case, both our Anti-Stress GEL and our Anti-Stress CREAM are true all-in-ones.

As we are writing this article in winter, in this article we will tell you about the properties of our Anti-Stress CREAM .

The first thing you should know is that it is a cream formulated for normal skin and dry skin , but if you have combination skin , we also recommend using it in winter .
The reason is very simple: If it were a cream formulated for a woman's face, it would probably be too greasy for you.
However, since it is formulated for men's skin , it is ideal for use on combination skin in winter, especially after the age of 35-40 .

What does our Anti-Stress CREAM contain?

Anti-wrinkle face cream for men
Gingko Biloba
It is one of the few trees we have today that have existed since prehistoric times. Its extract helps to carry nutrients to the skin, and is considered a great anti-aging agent .
Shea
It is a vegetable butter from an African tree. It has numerous properties, but perhaps the most important is that it is a great cell regenerator .

Jojoba
Jojoba oil contains ceramides, which are the cement that binds the cells of our skin together, making this active ingredient a great cellular firming agent .

Avocado
The avocado stone is cold pressed to obtain a super nutritious vegetable oil. It is the vegetable oil with the widest spectrum of vitamins (A, B1, B2, C, D, E...).

Several studies show that the synergy of Shea, Jojoba and Avocado helps our skin generate its own collagen and elastin .

Hyaluronic acid
In our case, it is of plant origin and of low molecular weight to ensure greater penetration and effectiveness.

Vitamins C and E
Two great antioxidants for your skin that fight free radicals.
