Means is put into a round jar which design is executed in the best traditions of the Planet SPA line from Avon. In other words, at first sight anything special, but it is elegant.
The cover unscrewing under it hides the foil skintight to a mouth of a jar and keeping, thus, means safe and sound.
Here, as they say, to carp there is nothing – all are on the ball.
Before opening means, I decided to find out what it consists of. No, that there is a black caviar I knew. But here other components what? And I put the curious nose under the sticker pripechatanny to a bottom. And there … "chemistry" in pure form!
To be fair I will note that extracts of sturgeon fishes and a laminaria are present too, there are only they right at the end. So, in scanty quantities.
With water and glycerin everything is clear therefore I will begin with butilenglikolya. This substance can be used as a humidifier, solvent, preservative and even surfactant., It seems, even it is safe (though disputes on its harm do not cease still).
PEG-8 – ethylene glycol polymer. Softens and humidifies. Many consider it safe. The same can be told also about PEG-20. However what both of these substances receive from oil products confuses, and somehow not really there is a wish to see them in cosmetics especially as say about their carcinogenicity …
Karbomer is the thickener having the moistening properties., It seems, too it is safe.
Shea butter – the first useful component in this structure! Judging from the fact that there is it high on the list, it here – enough.
Hexanediol 1.2 and kaprilglikol – preservatives. Experts claim that they cannot cause harm to skin.
Mica – mineral. Softens skin, giving it shine. However it has property to create on a surface skin a film because of which cellular respiration is complicated. Can dry skin.
Sodium hydroxide – the strongest alkali. Can do harm to skin and mucous. It is marked with the sign "Dangerously".
Disodium salt of etilendiamintetrauksusny acid – E-386 nutritional supplement. in cosmetics it is used as preservative. Low-toxic component.
Sodium hydroxyethyl acrylate – foaming agent. I do not understand why it here.
Dimetikon – silicone which can do much harm to skin as breaks the physiological processes proceeding in it.
Isocetane does skin silky, is recognized as safe.
Polysorbate 60 – is produced from palm oil. Carries out a role of emulsifier and solvent. Alas, can do harm to health.
Phosphoric acid. Honestly, did not understand for what it here. Most likely, for alkali neutralization. Only for some reason many times it is less of it …
At last we reached extract of sturgeon roe! This component gives to skin elasticity and elasticity as "urges on" production of collagen and elastin. Here it is only a pity that it is not enough here …
Laminaria extract – the excellent ingredient rejuvenating skin, but it too next to nothing …
Probably, you already understood that I did not begin to focus attention on a fragrance and dyes. Nevertheless, they are present too.
When I for the first time opened a jar with gel, just was stupefied: before my eyes dairy and glossy something appeared, sparkling pink nacre. Honestly, I was stupefied as I did not even represent how IT can be put on a face. Directly some glamour, really!
The texture at means gel, aroma pleasant, but, in my opinion, not ladies' – such smell will suit men's cosmetics more, than women's. But just such aromas are pleasant to me therefore here for me there are no minuses.
Having suffered some time over a question – to smear or not – I after all decided to put gel on a face. What to tell you? On skin something sticky is felt and not absolutely pleasant. It refuses to be absorbed at all. And lies, flickers slowly. Looking at itself in a mirror, compared itself to the alien. Waited for minutes 20 – nothing changed. Took a tampon and erased all this shining "magnificence". What my surprise when I looked at a wadded tampon was: it was dirty!
Though, it is necessary to notice that I carefully purified skin before putting gel. Whether it is gel particles (most likely, sturgeon roe), whether dust which is attracted by a sticky layer of gel on a face. Anyway, desire ever to repeat the procedure at me was gone at all.
There is a gel on a shelf now, misses. Where to spend it, I will cannot understand. Probably, it is necessary to throw out nevertheless. And you what you will advise?
