## Key ingredients

Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol, Proxylane, Salicyloyl Phytosphingosine, Glycerin, Vaccinium Myrtillus Extract

## What the research says

- Application of a hydroxypropyl tetrahydropyrantriol and niacinamide formula following nonablative fractional laser treatment demonstrated comparable healing benefits to clinical control and significant improvements in fine lines, crow's feet wrinkles, skin roughness, and overall healthy appearance over 56 days in White and Northeast Asian panels. ([The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 2025](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41647767/))
- A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women. ([Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/))
- The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532576/))
- Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant. ([International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18498456/))
- Fermented bilberry extract improved wrinkle depth, skin smoothness, roughness, firmness, elasticity, antioxidant capacity, and complexion evenness compared to a placebo in 66 subjects over 84 days. ([Nutrients, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39064646/))
- Topical application of oil-in-water creams containing wild bilberry leaves extract and seeds oil produced significant beneficial effects on the skin of healthy human volunteers. ([Antioxidants, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33809607/))
- Bilberry fruit extract incorporated into chitosan-based hydrogels demonstrated antioxidant, anti-hyaluronidase, and anti-tyrosinase activities, supporting their potential use in topical anti-aging preparations. ([Antioxidants, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38247529/))

## What reviewers say

Based on a very large amount of data, this cream is highly effective for mature and thinning skin, with users frequently reporting significant reduction in deep wrinkles and improved skin texture, leading to a plumper, firmer appearance. It is also noted for providing deep hydration. However, a considerable number of users express concerns about the high price point, and some find the texture and finish of the reformulated product less desirable than the original, with occasional complaints about packaging and scent.

## Questions and answers

### Why does Lovi advise against SkinCeuticals A.G.E. Interrupter for dry skin?

Lovi advises against using this treatment on dry skin because it does not provide the deep hydration and barrier support this skin type needs. A suitable product for dry skin needs rich, nourishing ingredients like ceramides, niacinamide, and peptides to keep dry skin soft and smooth without irritation.

### Which ingredients make this cream a poor fit for dry skin?

This cream is a poor match for dry skin because it lacks the deep hydration, soothing nourishment, and skin barrier support that dry skin requires. To properly care for dry skin, a product of this type needs rich moisturizing ingredients, ceramides, and peptides to keep the skin soft and smooth without irritation.

### What does Proxylane do for dry skin?

Proxylane helps dry skin feel much softer and smoother by supporting the skin's natural moisture-holding components. This ingredient may also improve how well the skin holds onto hydration, making it look plumper and healthier over time.
