  • Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol: Pro-Xylane is an ingredient originally developed by Lancome in 2006. Research shows it is a sugar-protein hybrid based on xylose, a sugar found in abundance in beech trees and known to stimulate production. of glycoaminoglycans (GAGs), molecules responsible for the defense of the skin against the loss of water. Pro-Xylane enters the skin and triggers the production and construction of sections of the extracellular matrix (the gelatinous network of proteins and sugars that act as a scaffold and buffer between cells) called proteoglycans. These molecules absorb water, making the matrix more gelled, increasing the firmness of the cells and therefore of the skin. According to Lancome (not an independent laboratory),

Summary Analysis Eye Care Revitalift Laser X3 by L’Oreal

This time I have not found parabens (something common in the brand), but I have found silicones, petroleum derivatives, and various irritating, sensitizing and toxic ingredients that, although when applying the cream you do not notice anything, you must always keep in mind account for the combined effect and future damage.

Of 24 ingredients, only 3 are saved: apricot oil, adenosine, and hyaluronic acid (which is not among the first). Then there’s Pro-Xylane, an ingredient developed by the brand (Lancôme is from L’Oreal) that has no independent lab studies.

The rest are ingredients that give the cream its texture, color, etc. (stabilizers, solvents, surfactants, and pH buffers).

No matter how cheap the product is, it is better not to take anything, at least it will not hurt you.

Alternative Creams

Any other product is better than this contour, and if you want one that works, I recommend the Nezeni Cosmetics contour, it is more expensive, but it is certainly much more effective, and eliminates the combined effect if it is used with other products of the brand. .
