The Sostar Anti-Wrinkle Collagen Face Cream is a 50ml face and neck cream for intensive anti-aging. The manufacturer attributes the collagen in the formula to restoring the natural moisture of the skin, while the cream improves the appearance of wrinkles and gives elasticity and radiance. It is designed for mature skin.
Its texture is suitable for daily use. It is part of the Greek Sostar collagen range, which also includes a night cream, so that care continues around the clock.
If we imagine the skin as a mattress, collagen is the springs. It is the most abundant protein in the human body and makes up most of the dry weight of the dermis. Its fibers are organized in bundles that withstand tension and allow the face to return to its position after each expression.
Already from the age of 25 to 30 years, collagen production begins to slow down gradually. At menopause, the decrease becomes more noticeable due to hormonal changes. The result is a skin that seems less dense, with deeper wrinkles and a contour that loses its clarity.
In creams, collagen is mainly used as a moisturizing and softening ingredient. Its large structure keeps it on the surface, where it forms a soft layer that limits water loss. A well-hydrated surface reflects light better, and thus the face looks brighter and more rested.
The manufacturer explicitly intends it for mature skin. It suits those who find that their light cream no longer covers them, those who feel the skin pulling after washing or notice that wrinkles have become more prominent. It is not so much for young skin, which usually needs lighter hydration. Because the application is done with a massage, it is also an opportunity for a small daily care ritual.
Apply daily by massaging face and neck. Sostar recommends combining it with the collagen night cream from the same range. If you are exposed to the sun, also use sunscreen.
The night cream in the range contains, in addition to collagen, retinol and plant extracts, and is applied in the evening. The two creams are designed to work together.
The description does not mention SPF. If you want collagen along with a sun protection index, there is the SPF15 Day Cream with Collagen from Sostar.
With your fingers, in small circular motions from the center of the face outward and from the base of the neck to the chin.
No, the collagen in the cream acts on the surface. There it helps with hydration and the appearance of the skin.
The feeling of hydration is immediate. For the appearance of wrinkles, consistency is needed, so the manufacturer recommends daily application.
It is designed for the face and neck. Do not skip the neck, which also loses elasticity over the years. For the eyes, prefer a special eye cream.
