Balea MEN

Gesichtsmaske Q10 Anti-Falten

Aimed at men, and the formula is a rich tissue-off cream: decyl oleate, cocoglycerides, shea butter and sweet almond oil fill the top ten. The anti-wrinkle story sits lower down - ubiquinone fourteenth, then caffeine and robusta coffee seed extract immediately after it, with sodium hyaluronate nineteenth. Two applications for 95 cents.

What stands out in the list

Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.

  • Contains fragrance

    Listed as Parfum/Fragrance, which can stand for dozens of undisclosed aroma chemicals. Fragrance is one of the most common causes of cosmetic contact allergy.

  • No drying alcohol

    No ethanol, alcohol denat. or isopropyl alcohol in the list. Fatty alcohols such as cetearyl alcohol are not drying and do not count.

  • Nothing flagged for pregnancy

    No ingredient on this list is one our encyclopaedia marks as avoided or used with caution in pregnancy. That is not the same as a clearance, so check with your midwife or doctor.

  • Barrier-supporting actives

    Contains Panthenol, ingredients with reasonable evidence for calming and supporting the skin barrier.
