My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

CentellaAqualift Intense Anti-Aging Global Care by Centella is primarily intended for mature skin or skin showing signs of aging, such as wrinkles, loss of firmness, and dehydration. My analysis of the formulation reveals a clear desire to target skin slackening and loss of elasticity, while providing intense hydration. The presence of plant-based active ingredients and moisturizing agents positions this product as a comprehensive solution for combating skin aging, while respecting the skin's balance.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three major active ingredients stand out in this formula. First, Centella Asiatica, in various forms (extract and cell culture), is known for its regenerating and stimulating properties on collagen synthesis, promoting skin repair and firmness. Next, Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) acts as a powerful moisturizer, capable of retaining up to 1,000 times its weight in water, plumping the skin and visibly reducing wrinkles. Finally, glycerin completes the moisturizing action by strengthening the skin barrier. The combination of these active ingredients gives the product a noticeable effect on skin density and elasticity.

Tips and Application Ritual

I recommend applying this treatment morning and night to clean skin, using light upward massage strokes. It can be combined with antioxidant or moisturizing serums, but it is best to avoid immediate combination with powerful exfoliating active ingredients (AHA/BHA acids) to limit the risk of irritation, particularly due to the presence of essential oils.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This product stands out thanks to its synergy of natural and moisturizing active ingredients, offering a comprehensive solution for mature skin. It has a pleasant texture and is quickly absorbed. One caveat, however: the presence of essential oils and fragrance allergens may not be suitable for very sensitive or reactive skin. In conclusion, this is an effective comprehensive anti-aging treatment, ideal for skin in need of firmness and hydration.
