A medium-weight daily moisturizer powered by Myoxinol™, a neuropeptide extracted from hibiscus seeds. Myoxinol™ is included for its role in softening the look of expression lines that develop over time, while antioxidant-rich prickly pear polysaccharides hydrate and calm the skin. Olive oil, rice fractions, and a multi-vitamin complex nourish and help defend against daily environmental stress. Suitable for all skin types, especially mature, dry, or normal skin, and formulated with sensitive skin in mind.

How to use: Each morning after serum, smooth 1–2 pumps over the face, neck, and décolleté with upward circular motions. Prefer a lighter texture at night? It doubles beautifully as an evening moisturizer.

Caroline's Notes
Caroline’s Notes
This is a really nice everyday moisturizer. It is lightweight but still very hydrating and calming, so it works well for most skin types, especially normal, dry, or sensitive skin.

Product Information

Highlights

Built around Myoxinol™, Irene Forte’s breakthrough anti-aging ingredient — a neuropeptide extracted from hibiscus seeds — this plumping and hydrating face cream is clinically proven to visibly smooth wrinkles, delivering a more youthful-looking complexion.

Myoxinol™ works by relaxing muscle contractions, providing a natural alternative to injectables. It targets mechanical aging by inhibiting muscle movement that leads to wrinkle formation, while its antioxidant effect combats biological aging by neutralizing free radicals and protecting the skin from oxidative stress. This luxurious cream also features antioxidant-rich Polysaccharides from Prickly Pear, known for their calming, hydrating properties, which boost the skin’s youthfulness. Complemented by the protective antioxidant action of Olive Oil and Rice Fractions, as well as a blend of multi-vitamins, this cream offers complete nourishment and defends against environmental stressors.
