Centellian24 Madeca Cream Time Reverse

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

What is this product?

Centellian24's Madeca Cream Time Reverse is the pick for dry, mature skin that wants centella at a level the label actually states: 마데카식애씨드 at 4,800 ppm, about 0.48 percent, with twelve centella derived ingredients filling positions 14 to 26 of 108. Do not buy it for the name, though, because the retinol behind the time reverse promise is printed 76th, behind the preservatives, with no amount and no test published for it. Two other things should decide it for you: sixteen essential oils fill positions 90 to 105 with 리모넨, 리날룰 and 시트랄 declared after them, and the retinol makes it a night cream and a no for pregnancy.

What makes it different?

Almost nothing in this price bracket prints a centella acid figure, and 4,800 ppm is a real working level rather than a token one. The centella block behind it runs twelve entries deep, including an oil, an amino acid fraction, a polypeptide and a protein extract, which is a wider set than a standard extract plus acids pair. Against that, the anti-aging story it is named for sits on retinol printed 76th of 108 with no amount, so the disclosure is generous on one active and silent on the one the name sells. The perfume load is the other deciding factor: sixteen essential oils and three declared allergens are a lot for a cream sold on soothing.
