It’s a relatively simple formula, but they put a lot of preservatives in there. Consider this is a product intended to be used around mouth, there is a chance you will lick and eat those preservatives. So don’t lick.

Other than that, it is enriched with witch hazel and tomato extract, both potent antioxidants which means they will prevent the wrinkles from appearing. But both have the potential to irritate skin. So stop using if any adverse reaction occurs.

Like all Sisley products, it is very pricey which I found hard to justify.

Safety alert: Cautious
review based on scientific information of the product ingredients.

1st ingredient
oj_line is water.
2nd ingredient
witch hazel has potent antioxidant and some anti-irritant properties. But it also has a high alcohol and tannin content which make it irritating when used repeatedly.
3rd ingredient
glycerin transports water from the environment and from the lower layers of skin (dermis) to surface skin (epidermis). It softens the skin. Glycerin is a substance naturally present in skin which helps maintain the epidermis and prevent dryness or scaling.
4th ingredient
tomato extract has significant antioxidant properties but whether or not it translates into skin benefits has not been studied. It can also be a potential skin irritant depending on what part of the tomato is used, but one can’t tell from the ingredient label.

oj_line Contains triethanolamine. Triethanolamine is used in cosmetics as a pH balancer. Like all amines, it has the potential for creating nitrosamines. Nitrosamines are readily absorbed through skin and they have been proved to be strong carcinogen. Whether or not the concentrations used in cosmetics should be of concern is still a matter of debate. Better avoid if possible.
