Christian Dior Hydra LIFE is one of the decent ranges that contains REAL Hyaluronic Acid (HA) - a nice plumped effect for your skin and that young skin glow from inside!
Many Beauty Brands promise HA until you check ingredients label.
Hydra LIFE range has a plenty of products and one of the interesting ones is Hydra Life Close Up Pore Reducing Pro-Youth Moisturiser.
A CATCH: A good dose of Hyaluronic Acid with a good-for-skin plant extracts from ‘Dior Gardens’.
CONCERN: light moisturiser for Combination/Oily Skin, Pores and Dehydrated skin.
WHAT IT DOES:
-
Soft and supple feeling without feeling ‘too much’;
-
healthy glow without sebum shine;
-
boost of HA makes skin bounce back;
-
does corrects fine lines;
-
good choice for 1st Anti Age Cream!
TEXTURE: Emulsion light formula with a refreshing scent of fresh flower petals (but for me it has scent of freshly cut cucumber). Scent is very slight!
Has a slight of rosy skin-like colour which probably corrects skin tone a bit. Ideal under make up.
PACKAGING: REAL glass jar with a comfy pump, 50ml.
DOSAGE: One pump is usually pretty enough to give needed hydration for whole face (except eye area).
INGREDIENTS: Concentration from high to low
Glycerine - water retention, conditioning, lubricating, (there are two ways of derivation – plant and petrol, I think Dior uses more plant based Glycerine).
Silica – for a smooth sensations, but, of course, it’s silicone which many would think clog pores and fill up wrinkles for instant effect, but Dior does inform that product is ‘NON-COMEDOGENIC’.
Pentylene Glycol – helps to blend-in unblendable, humectant, has antimicrobial properties and preserves.
Perfume (fragrance) – makes scent of raw materials pleasant, might be allergen for 1 out of 100.
Rosa Hybrid Flower Extract, Centella Asiatica Leaf Extract, Ajuga Turkestanica Extract – are good stuff and apparently they grow in Dior Gardens.
Hyaluronic Acid –plumps, protects, retains and hydrates!
Malva Sylvestris, Opuntia Figus Indica Extract – also from the Gardens and it’s nice to see natural stuff in a High End cream!
Limonene – extracted from citrus peel, used in medicine, helps penetrate skin (only 3% are sensitive to Limonene), as this is the last ingredient in the list the amount is microscopic!
